This house was perfect for us, and John was a wonderful host. The location can't be beat - we could walk to the beach, to the canals, and to many restaurants. Great find!
Great location, walkable to restaurants, the Venice canals, and the beach. The house itself was cute and cozy, with all the comforts of home. Our host John was wonderful; great communication and very hospitable. Highly recommend!
It was very nice and quiet. We stayed next to the canals, which were really fun to walk through at night with all the twinkly lights. Very easy to walk to restaurants and quick markets and the beach is close.
Great trip - the house is amazing, and in a perfect location to walk to many spots. The communication with the owner was awesome. Highly recommended!
If we were to return to LA, we would def stay there again!
We had a great stay at this Venice beauty. Wonderful quiet neighborhood vibe but only minutes from all the fun. John was very helpful and a good communicator.
We enjoyed our stay overall at this property. The home is centrally located for exploring Los Angeles. Proâs - John the host was great, very responsive. The home was equipped with everything we needed during our stay. Conâs- the master bedroom bed is hard to sleep on because of a large dip in the mattress. The hot water was an adventure the first day so plan to be patient with this old homes pipes and plumbing.
Great property in convenient location for exploring LA. The outdoor patio is the place to relax after a long day with a gas firepit, tv, and comfortable lounge area. Ample street parking. Very clean and welcoming home. Responsive host. Thank you
Within walking distance to Venice, Abbot Kinney, and a number of good restaurants. The house was deceptively large and outside space was great. Enjoyed watching playoffs outside on the TV with the firepit. Laundry machines were handy as well. On street parking but we were able to park within a house or two the entire trip. Communication with host was exceptional. Thanks for a stress free experience.
We were in town for our son's wedding and John's place was a very comfortable home base for us. John was very communicative and attentive. The owner appears to live here at times when it is not rented, so you will be sharing some of the storage space (closets and drawers) with his things. Overall, it was still a great place to stay for our trip. We found things to be just as the listing said they would be. We would definitely stay again if future travel brings us back to Venice.
My husband and I stayed here for several days while visiting our son at UCLA. This home is so comfortable, and nicer than the photos depict. It has two nice sized bedrooms plus a twin bed in the office; perfect for two couples or a family of 4-5. It's on a nice quiet street just a few blocks from the canals and an easy 10 minute walk to the beach or Abbot Kinney. Ideal location. Street parking at the house was easy.
The bed in the master bedroom is super comfortable, and the house is nicely furnished. We weren't sure exactly what we would find in the backyard with the Astro turf walls, but we loved it and used it quite a bit. It is a perfect place to hang out with family or friends to enjoy the beautiful weather. The fire pit and BBQ worked great, the backyard couch is super comfy, and there's even an outdoor TV. We used it all!
John was welcoming, extremely helpful, and communicative; he responded quickly whenever we had a question. He sent an access code so we could enter the home without any delay or fuss.
One thing renters should know is that John lives in this house at least some of the time, which means he has belongings there (though he does a great job cleaning them up). They were not in the way and it made the house feel warm. It also means the kitchen is fully stocked with pots and pans, cooking utensils, etc. We cooked a lot, so that was a bonus. The TV and electronics were actually easy to use, to turn on and off, and the wifi worked great.
The house was very clean, and as we left to head home a cleaning crew was already waiting outside. We did not worry about germs or viruses at all.
We will definitely return if we are in the area again. Highly recommend it!
Optimal location in a quiet, delightful neighborhood.
Couldnât be happier with our recent stay at this charming, clean and optimally located bungalow. Property owner was very proactive with detailed information. We would stay here again if the opportunity arises.
Our family of five really enjoyed John's house. It's a short walk to the canals and beach. Easy street parking. The home was comfortable and well-stocked with nice touches throughout.
This property is so perfectly located, walking distance to Venice Beach or Marina del Rey. It is beautifully kept, well stocked amenities and the owner is extremely welcoming and helpful. Our family had a wonderful stay in this lovely home. Can't wait to return.
My three adult children and I found the house to be extremely well equipped, user-friendly and most importantly, very comfortable. It was both charming and spacious, ample size bedrooms and baths, great living room- kitchen area, nice backyard space. The host was very responsive to questions and extremely helpful. The neighborhood is really well located, easy street parking. I would happily stay there again.
Executive, triathlete, skier, proud father, grandfather and boyfriend. Love to help guests enjoy the creative, beachy vibe of Venice, with it's bohemian counterculture, 5 star restaurants, mixed with hipsters and hi tech yuppies. Enjoy it all right hear just a ten minute walk from the beach , two minutes to canals, and ten minutes to the world famous Abbott Kinney Blvd, with it's renowned restaurants and shops.
