The location is perfect if you wish to experience the beautiful parts of Venice Beach with its wonderful canal neighborhood and wide sandy beach. We very much enjoyed walking through the canals to the beach - you can avoid the very touristy part if you turn left (south) at the beach. Zabi was very helpful with insights and recommendations for the area. The little blue bungalow is clean, cozy and quiet - we felt at home from day 1 and really recommend staying at Zabi’s place. Sadly, the supermarket right around the corner is permanently closed, hopefully there will be a nice replacement.
