Stunning Modern Beach House

Unfortunately I can’t rate the property adequately. Our stay happened to be on a day where outside temperatures reached 113 degrees. When we arrived to the house, the inside temperature at 5 pm was over 90. We turned on the 3 window units that were the only source of air condition and by 9 pm it had gotten down to 85 degrees. At this point my family made the judgement call to go to a hotel.

The property is a great location and very nice. However, we wish that it had been stated what the air conditioning situation was in the description and that the units are not in all the rooms

Top floor of beautifully decorated home. Accommodated 10 for Christmas--4 slept in the living room on a large day bed and trundle, which may be a little cramped for some, but was fine for my small statured Asian family. Very peaceful location, steps to the beach and a short walk to the excitement of Venice beach. Parking was a little painful, but was as described in the listing--1 spot on premises for a medium size vehicle and our second vehicle was parked several blocks away at a public lot. Hand soaps, laundry/dishwashing detergent provided. Bring your own toiletries. Communication with management was fine. Would definitely return.

Two families stayed 4 nights recently. We were 9. All was great and the owner/management were incredibly responsive. I'd give 5 stars except it was tight for 9 and certainly can't sleep 10 unless someone's on the floor. 6 adult sized people and 2 kids would be max for comfort. Other than that, awesome!

We stayed here for two nights, celebrating my daughter's Master's graduation. I was searching for a home that would house a lot of family, but not look like a beachside "party" house. I am SO happy I found this house on VRBO. It is quite lovely! The home sets on a tiny street across from a FABULOUS beach (the beach is huge, and nearly empty, which is surprising for So. Cal!). There are sail boats sailing near a jetty close by, and it was so peaceful just to sit and watch the waves and the sails. The furnishings in the house are both quirky and tasteful! The furs on the floor and throughout made us feel very "posh", but it was also very cozy! Through a very slight confusion, we ended up renting the bottom unit as well. The property manager was both communicative and VERY helpful. I appreciated her speedy and caring attention to all of my concerns. I would say if you can afford it, and you have a LARGE group, you should inquire about leasing both. We had so much fun being able to spread out a bit and not worrying about bothering another renter. The house is a short walk to Venice beach and all of the craziness there, so we had fun eating out and returning to the quiet of a gorgeous beach sunset. Parking is limited, but we were able to park our extra vehicles right along the main street close by, without any problems at all. Just a humorous side note: After I leased the home and received the address, I looked at the "street view" on Googlemaps. The view is of the alley behind the house, NOT the front of the house, so needless to say I was very disappointed at what I saw, and VERY delighted when I got there and saw the actual front of the home (which is gorgeous!)....

A very comfortable and newly renovated home a block from the prettiest beach I have seen in California. You would not be renting an entire house, however, as it is split into two units. There is a smaller unit downstairs with a lovely patio in the front, and an upstairs larger unit with no patio and a flight of stairs to the entry. The downstairs would be better if you have children. Parking is a problem! It is a 5 star property but with the parking issue, and there being 2 units instead of an entire home, I gave it a 4. Be sure to take your own soaps - bath, dishwasher and washing machine. We had to make a trip to pick up those items. The neighborhood is not the most quiet as the house sits very close to other homes and apartment buildings and consequently there is not much of a view. However, I would stay here again as it is a lovely property with an inviting boardwalk just steps away from the front door.
