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 (bodyboard, beach chairs...).

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 1pm and late check-outs at 1pm for a fee of $50 each. Just let us know your time of arrival and departure prior; you will pay us the extra fee directly after booking. We charge $10 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 your pets when booking. 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...

We were very satisfied with everything. It's cozy, warm, quirky, with its own vibe, in an excellent neighborhood, with its own charm. Quiet, quiet, and more quiet. We loved it and it was a very accommodating experience, as we expected it to be.Go stay and see for yourself... it is what you make it.If you've got a dog(s), be aware there are additional cleaning fees.Communication with host and checking in/out is straightforward and a breeze.

Birthday Trip
Loved the beach house vibe of the place. Great location just a 10 minute walk to Venice. Easy parking for the most part. Host was very friendly, accommodating and a great communicator. Let me bring my pitbull with me when most places don’t allow that. Me and my girlfriend had a fun trip and liked it. Definitely would recommend 👍

Great stay, cool neighborhood, close to everything
The host was super accommodating and easy to communicate with. The other reviews were accurate and the stay was what I expected. The only negative were the 'rules' which discouraged enjoying the front porch.

Great location and host!
Excellent location! Host was very helpful and friendly. Great communication and easy check in and out. The cottage was nice although it had a slightly mildewy smell. All of the other cottages on the street seemed to have chairs and or tables in front, but this one has a rule about not being on the front porch or sitting in the front grass area, which was disappointing because it’s on a lovely street. Overall a great place for a short stay close to shops, restaurants, and the beach.

We really enjoyed our walks to local hangouts. Park your car in the provided carport and walk the boardwalk or Abbot Kinney Blvd or Main St to Santa Monica or go for a run on the boardwalk from Venice to Will Roger’s State park.

Absolutely Phenomenal
We fell in love the second we walked in! My sisters and I booked this place for a fun vacation to be close to the beach but also be in the heart of LA to see all the fun things the city has to offer and this stay was perfect! It was so cozy and tucked away yet still so close to the heart of all the action. The beach being only a 7 min walk was fantastic. Would absolutely recommend!!

Great house and perfect location
This house had everything we needed and was very comfortable, tidy and clean! The location is absolutely perfect. The main local shops, restaurants and the beach are within a few blocks. The residential area is very safe and friendly. Marnie was an amazing host and stayed in contact with us to make sure all was well. The carport was just around the corner was handy and safe to park our rental vehicle. We both would 100% stay at this house again!

Great Location!
My girlfriend and I were in CA for a wedding and decided to book this location last minute. The location was absolutely perfect. You’re within walking distance from multiple shops as well as walking distance from Venice Beach. In addition, you’re only a short drive from LA (without traffic). The host was extremely kind and accommodating. The house was slightly dated and could use a facelift, but the location makes up for that. We did encounter some slight bug issues due to having to leave the windows open for cooling, but otherwise we have no complaints. We would definitely stay there again!

Cute Bungalow in Fun Neighborhood
We had a marvelous time walking nearby for drinks and dinners, and to & along Venice Beach. The bungalow fit our needs and we felt at home. Note that the bedroom is underneath the building behind the bungalow, and several times my husband was awakened during the night by overhead sounds (possibly someone working out.) Marnie was easy to work with and our bungalow stay was such fun. 😎

Bicycling through Venice
This was a great. Having safe parking for my vehicle, being a few blocks from the beach and bikes available for use made this the perfect get away. We were able to unload the car and have covered parking just around the corner. We took the bikes to the beach, Santa Monica Pier, and Prominade. NOT having to worry about parking makes this an amazing booking. I look forward to doing this again.

Pictures a little deceiving
Though not uncommon, the pictures make the bungalow appear bigger than it actually is. If more than 2 adults stay here, the futon sleeper will be cramped. The set up will be a bit difficult to comfortably watch tv. Nice location and pretty quiet.
