Venice Beach holiday house

"Our overall experience was very good. We had problems with the printer the first day, made a call to Michael and had a new printer delivered to the property the same day. Great customer service.

The property had EVERYTHING we needed for our 30 day stay. Most importantly great beds and an excellent rain shower for two.

The property is extremely well located for walking or driving to everything of interest in the area. A short 5 minute or less walk to the beach, 10 minute walk to Gold's Gym, 15 minutes or less to the heart of Main street in Santa Monica for a great breakfast or lunch at the Urth Cafe, Pannini Garden or dinner at Chenois on Main or Cheyas.

Also about a 15 minute stroll along the Venice Beach boardwalk to the Cow's End on Washington for to-die-for smoothies and wraps. Short 5-10 minute drive to the Lobster and other great seafood restaurants along Pacific and Ocean Avenue as well as the Third Street Promenade for shopping, dining and street entertainment.

Enjoyable drive along the PCH to the Getty Museum and Nobu's in Malibu (Cross Creek Road) for the best Japanese food available on the planet. Stop at Moonshadows for ocean view dining and drinks.

What you definitely need to ask if you plan on taking the first floor 2 bedroom, 2 bath unit as we did: Will anyone be occupying the top floor unit during your stay? We spent the month being awakened at 6:30 AM or earlier by an active two year old running and jumping on the hardwood floors above us.

The owners need to carpet the 2nd floor 1 bedroom, 1 bath apartment to minimize the noise made by the occupants and the inconvenince to the first floor occupants in the event both floors are occupied simultaneously. Once this is completed the property would have to be rated as Excellent.
