Charming Beach Bungalow with Patio and Carport, Pet friendly
Welcome to the ultimate Venice experience: a cute beach cottage, authentic and comfortable. Close to everything in Venice and Santa Monica. Head out for shopping and for the night to famous Abbot Kinney Blvd, just 1 block away. All hotspots of Venice are at walking distance: canals, Main St, Muscle Beach, skate park... Carport included. All surfaces are professionally cleaned and disinfected.
There is only one floor, so it's easy to access. There are a few steps to walk down from the kitchen to the bedroom and a patio in the bedroom.
The unit is 600 square feet and has a combination of hardwood floor and tiles flooring. It has one bedroom with a queen-size bed that sleeps two people comfortably. In the living room, a sofa pulls out to convert to a queen-sized bed which sleeps two people as well. The kitchen separates the living room and the bedroom, there is no separation door.
One bathroom with a shower and a tub, shampoo, shower gel, beach towels and a hairdryer are provided. A fully-equipped kitchen (four burners stove, oven, refrigerator, toaster, coffee pot, kettle, microwave, crockery and cutlery for four people, cooking utensils).
In the bedroom, you will find a yoga mat, an iron, an ironing board and beach gear (beach chairs, beach toys).
If you have a car, you can park it in our carport. Otherwise, street parking is easy and free. Just make sure to read the signs for the street cleaning (Monday on one side of the street and Tuesday on the other side, from noon to 2pm).
The check-in procedure is automated so you don't need to worry about late arrivals or having to wait for us at the property. We accommodate early check-ins at 1:30pm and late check-outs at 12:30pm for a $50 fee each. Just let us know your time of arrival and departure prior; you will pay us the extra fee directly after booking.
Pet Policy: We welcome up to two pets per stay and charge $20 per pet per night. Please let us know how many pets you're bringing. The pet fee is included in the price if you're adding one pet when booking. You will have to pay us directly for the 2nd pet. Dogs should not be left unattended in the bungalow or private back patio at any time. The private back patio is not a dog park, please walk your dog on the street for bathroom breaks. If you're attending an event and need to leave your dog behind, a pet sitter is required. We're happy to recommend a great local sitter.
According to Vrbo guidelines, a camera on the porch films everyone's comings and goings.
There is no AC in the bungalow as in most of the buildings in Venice. There is always a nice breeze though, as we are so close to the ocean. We provide two portable fans and there is a ceiling fan in the bedroom. Please, use the fans only in case of heat wave, otherwise open the windows to save electricity. Thanks!
With the invigorating air of the ocean nearby, the Californian lifestyle and the animated restaurants and bars of Venice Beach, you really feel like being on vacation all year round here...

Wonderful location, beautiful space and amazing hosts. You can’t ask for better place to stay. So close to Abbott Kinney and Venice Beach but away enough to still be peaceful. Beautiful little bungalow that I would highly recommend to anyone!
Wonderful location and walkable distance to the beach. Cute neighborhood. The house is old but this is what gives it charm. Communication with the owners was great.
My friend and I had a great stay. You can't beat the location - everything you need is walking distance from the cottage. Abbot Kinney Blvd has the best shopping and amazing restaurants. Highly recommend if you're just looking for a basic place to stay.

Thanks, Kelle. You were fantastic guests, it was a pleasure hosting you. I'm glad you enjoyed your experience. I hope you come back soon! Take care, Ada
Truly adored staying the night at this quaint tiny cottage in Venice. Communication was timely and efficient. I very much appreciated all the messages ensuring I made it in and what not. The space was nice and tidy upon arrival, the kitchen has pots & pans and other bits to cook with, there were lots of blankets and towels. Plus you can’t beat the location. I’m very much looking forward to staying another night in the future. Hopefully without all the rain :)

Thank you so much, Meg! We’re delighted that you enjoyed your stay at the cottage and that the communication and amenities made everything comfortable for you. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’re so glad the location worked out well too. And yes, rain is quite unusual around here, so we hope your next visit comes with our usual sunshine instead! 🌞
Safe travels, and thanks again for the wonderful review.
Thanks for your stay and your feedback, Amy! We're really glad you enjoyed the location. Since your visit, we’ve made a few improvements based on guest suggestions, and we're always working to make the space even better. We'd love to welcome you back next time you're in the area!
Within walking distance of Venice Beach. Carport made parking stress free. Quaint cottage nestled within neighborhood. Affordable.

Thanks so much for your review, Ruth! We're really glad you enjoyed the easy walk to Venice Beach, the stress-free parking, and the cozy vibe of the cottage. It was a pleasure having you for your anniversary, and we’d love to host you again anytime you're back in the area!
The cottage was sweet, simple, well maintained. I enjoyed the neighborhood and could easily walk to lots of great places. This is not easy in LA.we Ubers around to events, and it was accessible for the drivers on pick up and drop off. I would recommend it for a quick trip.
The owners were super communicative and very helpful. Lovely place in a great location. Close enough to walk to the beach. Smaller cars are easier to park in their parking space and finding street parking around was not super difficult. Just a note, if you stay there with others, the bedroom does not have a door on it.

An excellent place . Highly recommend : very clean very accessible to Abbott Kinney my favorite shopping Street in Los Angeles and to the beach in Venice highly which I walk to every day

Great place. Great location. Attentive host. Big plus - host recommended a terrific dog sitter so we were able to attend a couple of events while in LA!
Great little charming cottage and neighbourhood close to the canals and beach. Everything we needed was within walking distance.
Nice and quiet as well, really enjoyed our stay.

What to say when staying in a historic bungalow within walking distance to shops and the beach? We had a great time during the day and enjoyed the night life too.

Thanks, Martin! You were fantastic guests, it was great having you there. I'm glad you enjoyed the prime location of my lovely bungalow. Hope you come back soon! Take care, Marnie
My husband and I just stayed at this property for 5 days. It is a nice size and is very well located. We could easily walk to the shops & restaurants on Abbot Kinney and to the beach. The property manager was very responsive. As with most properties in Venice, there is no AC - but it cooled down quite a bit at night and the fans were sufficient.

Dear Judy, thank you so much for your wonderful 5-star review! We're so glad to hear you and your husband enjoyed your stay, especially the location and the ease of walking to Abbot Kinney and the beach. We also appreciate you pointing out that, like most homes in Venice, our bungalow doesn’t have AC. As you mentioned, it's typically not necessary given the cool ocean breezes, the natural micro-climate, and the surrounding lawn and trees that help keep the cottage comfortable — especially in the evenings. We're happy the fans worked well for you! It was a pleasure hosting you both, and we hope to welcome you back again soon.
Warm regards, Ada & Eric
