Our family of four (including 2 teens) loved the home's decor and hip neighborhood. We enjoyed the proximity to Abbott Kinney Blvd and the canals. It was a peaceful place to relax after busy days exploring LA, and before heading out for dinner with lots of dining choices just steps away. While Venice Beach & Boardwalk isn't that far, this home feels worlds away. If you've been to Venice Beach, you know it is pretty gritty. This neighborhood is the opposite - clean and posh. Nice to have the beach close, but not that close :) Easy bike, run or walk to the coast. Home was very true to the pictures. Had a great experience.
