Michaela's place would be absolutely perfect for people who really want to hang at the beach and Venice, as it is close to Abbot Kenny as well as the beach. However, it is less than ideal for someone with a car. Parking is nearly impossible on the weekends, which means you need to stay put or loose your parking spot. Also, a note, it is set up more like a studio than a one bedroom, since the bed is in the living room. It wasn't a problem for me, but there is not a couch or comfy chairs to hang inside. I didn't meet Michaela personally, but enjoyed hanging out at her cozy bungalow by the beach!
