We had a wonderful stay at Mike's beautiful beach-house in Venice. It's on a walk street a few steps to the beach and a few minutes to the canals which are gorgeous. Communication and check-in were smooth. Kerry from Check-in LA met us and showed us around the house and gave us lot's of local tips. The house is large and well appointed with high-end appliances and stylish furniture and art. Excellent chef's kitchen if you are inclined to cook. Venice is a great area, we loved shopping on Abbot Kinney and Rose Avenue and wandering around the walk-streets. We can't wait to come back next year with our grand children.
