The Lavender Beach House could not have been a more perfect spot for us. It's modern cottage with all the amenities you could ask for in an ideal location. We walked to the beach everyday and enjoyed the uniqueness of Venice Beach and shopped the cool boutiques along Abbott Kinney Road. The nearby Whole Foods allowed us to stock up the house with food and snacks for our 2 year old son. Our host, Kendell, was great. Although we never met her, we felt like she was always there in case we needed anything. She remained in contact throughout our stay. I would highly recommend the Lavender Beach House to anyone visiting Venice Beach who is looking for a cozy and modern cottage in a prime location.
