This accomodation is absolutely great. It keeps everything that it promisses. 2 minutes to the beach and 5 minutes to the Venice pier. The appartement is spaceious and very clean. We were two families of nine adults and still it didn't feel crowded. It is very well equiped when it comes to the kitchen, towels and beach towels, beach wear as chairs, body boards and even bicycles. You can use the beach walk all the way from Washington Blvd to and past Santa Monica pier. It's 5,2 km to Santa Monica. Don't miss the skate park at Venice. Santa Monica has great shopping and restaurants on and around 3rd street promenade. We found Steve and Judy being very friendly and service minded. I'd love to come back to this place.
