Historic Home Next to the Island w/ Private Hot Tub and Pet Friendly

That house was fantastic. Very well located next everything we wanted to do. Thank you for the stay!

Quiet safe neighborhood.

Came for our honeymoon. Stayed 7 nights and it was perfect little space. Host was very easy for communication, if we come back to Venice in the future will definitely book with host/vrbo again. Loved it!

Pro: convenient location-that is the only plus.It is 1 of 3 buildings on the lot (was not stated in the listing). Our party was me & my daughters- ages 26 &16. The hot tub is at the head of the driveway; a car parked in the driveway will provide some obstruction from the road view. We used the hot tub 1 night & enjoyed it. Fridge is not hooked up for water or ice dispenser. Listing says it has an ice maker but it does not. Kitchen sink also has a filtered water spigot that doesn’t work. We bought bagged ice & gallons of bottled water (couldn’t find any ice trays to make ice). There is no dishwasher (listing also said there was one). This is an old house, & it still has the original kitchen. With old spaces come evidence of pests- I will just say that. We did not leave any food out & wiped down our counters each morning, & hand washed every kitchen utensil, plate, & glass before we used them. We only used the oven & toaster so I cannot speak to the range top use or drip coffee maker. Bathroom is OK; water pressure is fair, shower could use a complete removal & redo of all the black stained caulking. Queen bed is uncomfortable. The host does provide a beach umbrella & base, shovel, & 2 beach chairs (low back non-reclining kind that sit almost directly in the sand-uncomfortable! We ended up renting some). I added a small cooler & reusable ice packs.This is a no frills inexpensive beach rental, but I would spend more to stay elsewhere. Host was responsive to my questions.

Overall the house was clean and good value for the nightly stay rate. Close to beach and places to eat. The hottub is exposed to the street so that is not private and the people behind you have a direct view of you also. When staying ,we had people around us that stayed or lived ,we are unsure as we seen large and numerous totes outside the house ,directly behind us. Late at night we would have light shined into the windows and my son stayed in our room bc he was uncomfortable with that. This happened three out of the four nights we stayed.We also came home for a day out and when we pulled up two cars were pulled into the drive that we did not know. They did leave , but they were walking around the house and we were unsure why they were there.We never had anything messed with or anything just very uncomfortable and made you uneasy on a trip.

The host stated that there was a dishwasher and ice maker. There is neither of those. The dishes were filthy. I spent over an hour doing the dishes (by hand) that I thought we would use. There are still plenty of dirty dishes and no organization in the cupboards. There was a screwdriver and screws in with the silverware. Also, the arm for the door was broken off and sitting in a box on the counter in the kitchen. And, I dropped an earring in the bedroom and looked under the bed and dresser to retrieve it. There is enough dust & animal fur to stuff a toy. Sadly disappointed. On a positive note, it was a great location. Oh, and cockroaches were a problem. I hope some of these issues can be resolved. We won’t be back. Sorry:( in our 10 years of vacation rentals, we have never had to leave a negative response)

The host was responsive to our concerns, the home was clean, the bed we slept in comfortable, and the price was right for the age of the home and location. When we arrived the kitchen basics were lacking such as only two spoons and no usable fry pan. The host sent us a nice 10 inch fry pan. We did not complain about the other insufficiency until leaving and the host indicated they would be fixed.

Great communication with host. House was comfortable. Walking distance to bridge and downtown.

This space was very charming and retro. We enjoyed the porch and hot tub. It was close to restaurants and beaches.

Great location. Just needs some fixing, the wooden floor outside the bathroom has a hole in it. Otherwise it was good.

Area soso No street lights Close by car; cant easily walk to historic VeniceWell equiped by not organized. needs silverwareNever could figure out how to use tvs, some lights, lock doorlandscaping needs attention; no yard to sit, only porchwhich is nice

Very clean but old and cute. The door stuck so at first we thought we were locked out after entering the code but got in. Then we had an issue with tiny ants by the kitchen sink. The refrigerator was not working. It would not keep anything cold. Other than the old smell it was fine.

We had a fantastic stay at this lovely house in Venice Beach! The home was well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable getaway. The location was perfect and the beds very comfy. The atmosphere was relaxing, and we truly enjoyed our time there. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to experience the best of Venice Beach!
