The house was clean and as described. It is obvious that it has been updated and is nice. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes etc. There were a lot of nice touches like floats for the pool, beach towels, k cups for the coffee brewer, hooks in the bathroom for towels. The back patio has a nice sitting spot with a TV. This house is just minutes from multiple beaches. Would definitely stay here again. Host was easy to reach and responds quickly to messages.

Booked for a long weekend to take kids and grandkids shark tooth hunting. Was great to have the pool, the house is clean and uncluttered. Was close to beaches, shopping, restaurants, pier…I recommend and would rent again.

The house was actually better than pictures show. We loved the pool and everything was clean and comfortable for our stay. The bed sheets were so soft! We even enjoyed the birds, lizards and beautiful flowers in the yard. The neighbor probably thought my kid was crazy crawling around the yard chasing lizards! Richard is a great host and very responsive. Thanks so much for a great vacation!

Relaxing stay

The property is just like you see in the pictures. It’s welcoming and warm. Well furnished! Good location. Quiet neighborhood. Close to downtown Venice which is cutesy. Within reasonable drive to good beaches. Close to stores. The pool was indeed heated and was very nice in the evenings! Overall a very pleasant stay! The only complaint is the knives are bad.

Sea Grape Rd

Amazingly clean, close to general shopping and only minutes away from multiple beaches. The heated pool was great especially on days we v did not choose the beach...... Very quiet neighbourhood. We look forward to our next stay in 2025. Host was very helpful and communicative when needed Just a couple of hick ups, but they were immediately resolved.

Quiet neighborhood close to grocery stores less than 5 min away. Dog beach and Venice beach less than 10 min away. Siesta beach is about 30 min. Pool needed cleaning/chlorine but still enjoyable. Home had enough towels for 5+. Air mattress came in handy. Beach chairs umbrella were available. Would recommend!

Relaxing

Fantastic home. There was just 2 of us but would be great for large family or couples. A huge plus on the inside was that the beds had adjustable bases just like home. The kitchen was well stocked with anything that we needed. Living room furniture was very comfortable. And then there was the pool what an awesome thing. It was extremely hot while we were there so we didn't go to the beach but one time. The pool more than made up for that. Even on a hot day it was nice to cool off in the pool. The owners were very responsive. Overall it was an awesome time.

This home was beautiful and very homey. Loved the pool and all the extras in the Kitchen. Plenty of towels to use to go to the beach, by the pool, or to shower with. Kitchen was fully stocked with pans, utensils, and silverware. There was a lot of spices to which saved money. Cleaning items available for you to use and keep your space clean. Loved seeing all the birds and Iguanas. The landscaping is gorgeous. The outside TV was a added bonus too. By far my favorite place to stay This is at least my 30th home I have rented in Venice. Living room was comfortable and they even had board games. 10 out of 10

Spring Break Saved!

We loved our stay! Our previous plans fell through at the last minute and we were so thankful to find a place still available and for a great price. The pool sealed the deal for us. An added bonus was the fact that the house is located close to shopping and the beach without being on a busy road. The drive to Venice Beach and the Venice Fishing Pier were short and easy even during busy traffic times. Our only complaint was the sparse furnishings (no side tables or lamps in the bedrooms, not enough seating in the living room) and lack of kitchen dishes. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would definitely book again!

Coming from a New Yorker, let me tell you — Richard’s place exceeded our expectations. The photos don’t do it justice. Check-in was a breeze with the keyless August app; even my friend who arrived before me had no problem getting in.The house itself is very spacious, with a great split-bedroom layout that gave each of us plenty of privacy at the end of the day. The pool area was one of our favorite spots — a screened-in lanai with a TV and a BBQ grill that we put to good use one afternoon. Truly an added bonus.The location in Venice Gardens was perfect, with two beaches just a short drive away: the historic area and the Venice Fishing Pier. We also enjoyed amazing meals at Fins at Sharky’s and Made in Italy — both spots that can hold their own with the high-end restaurants we’re used to back in New York.All in all, we’d absolutely stay at Richard’s house again the next time we’re in the Venice area — which my friends have officially dubbed a “hidden gem.”
