Great location
The location of this property is amazing. It's a short walk to the beach/pier and various shops and restaurants. The kitchen is also well appointed if you like to cook. There is plenty of space for a group!

Awful.
We drove down from The Bay Area to spend a nice Christmas with our family. Our experience was less than ideal. The property had multiple issues listed below: - interior did not look like the pictures -The house had a very unpleasant odor, probably mold. Maybe because there is some kind of broken water main outside leaving puddles and water everywhere. I did contact the owner about the smell and they asked me to describe it. -Windows were open in the home when we arrived( probably to try and get rid of the smell), so it was therefore freezing, and took a few hours to heat up. - rack in dishwasher is broken -washing machine broken, soap not clearing from soap tray, you have to use the pre-wash. -blender broken -dirty vents/taped up vents - hooks for towels coming out of the wall. - no corkscrew -burned out and unmatching lightbulbs - landscaping looks like nobody cares. leaves everywhere, puddles, rocks, planters with dying plants - rooftop has one side with dumped garbage like old stools and wood, the other side has a table with big holes in it and filthy furniture - the bunk bed is so wobbly my daughter couldn't sleep in it - dusty everywhere. - owner came unannounced to check his mail in the front yard, we thought it was an intruder. - a leaf blower showed up ( end of our visit?) at 8:30 in the morning and woke people up wandering around the yard with it. - saying there is parking is an understatement. One parking spot could possibly fit a smart car, and the other you have to parallel park in front of a garage. - the house just feels like they don't care about it, or the people that rent it. I have a TON of pictures . I have rented from VRBO for years, and have NEVER even given a bad review, so I'm not one of those people. We felt ripped off.

Venice Trip
The house was great and the location fantastic. Walk for one minute and you’re on the beach. Likewise, the property is a stones throw from many restaurants. Amazingly it is super quiet at night. The instructions and guide tips were extremely helpful and accurate. We enjoyed the house and would look forward to staying there again.

Did not stay.
I have never been send a contract like this. It suggests that there must be lots of complaints in the past. The exterior is all that I ever saw. Dark alley. Apt. Building wrapped around it. Not safe. Venice is bad right now. Contract negates guarantees. I did not sign it nor stay as felt uncomfortable after going to see it first. No way!

Absolute blissful 4th of July Weekend!
This property is a stones throw away from the beach. Quaintly situated down a verdant alley way - you get the accessibility of "beach front" without the commotion and of the boardwalk. The house is cooky, charming, cool and spacious. Incredibly clean upon arrival and the house manual was prescriptively clear. The rooftop is probably the most prized asset of the house, excellent sunset views and a grill for bbq'ing. In terms of location, couldn't be more conveniently located - 1.5 miles away from grocery (Ralphs), ~1 mile away from Abbot Kinney (historic, very cool shopping street), 100 yards from the beach and about .4 miles from the pier. Parking - you can even fit two cars in the car port (albeit a tight squeeze). Would 10/10 recommend this property to anyone looking for a larger beach bungalow with direct beach access.

Great location and amazing house
The house is really comfortable, one block from the beach, spacious, fully accessorised and the owners put at the guests availability any sort of amenities and facilities. Great parking slot. Greatly appreciated and recommended. Owners feedback is immediate and they provide support and help. House instructions very clear and very easy check in process
