About this property

Lovely beach apartment w/ parking, bikes (Pet friendly!)

This is a brand new listing so there is no review for now. Be a minute to the beach in the best location of LA! For 1 to 4 people, my flat comes with two bikes so you can enjoy 22 miles of bike track by the beach. Best bars/restaurants close by. All hotspots of Venice are at walking distance: boardwalk, Gold's Gym, Rose Ave, Main St, Muscle Beach, canals, skate park... My off-site parking space is available a 4-minute walk away. All surfaces are professionally cleaned and disinfected.

Amazing location a step away to the beach, in between the famous Venice Beach Boardwalk and the best shops/restaurants on Main Street, just one block from trendy Rose Ave.

Airy space with tons of character on the ground floor of a cute historical building. Located in a very touristy place, our flat offers an alternative to a hotel stay and provides the amenities you may need for a different sort of traveling experience.

It is a charming beach apartment, clean and perfectly furnished, in a small condominium with three floors. The apartment is located on the ground floor so very easy to access. As the location is right on Venice Beach, the area gets very busy in summer with a lot of animation and it can be noisy sometimes.

The apartment is 650 square feet and has a combination of laminate floor and tiles flooring. It has one bedroom with a queen-size bed which sleeps two people comfortably. In the living room, a sofa pulls out to convert to a queen-sized bed that sleeps two people as well.

One bathroom with a shower and a tub, shampoo, shower gel and a hairdryer are provided. A fully-equipped kitchen (four gas burners stove, oven, refrigerator, toaster, coffee pot, kettle, microwave, crockery and cutlery for four people, cooking utensils). An iron and an ironing board are also available.

We put at your disposal 2 bikes (Mountain bikes) with locks. We provide one off-site parking space in a parking lot a four-minute walk away, and you can also park on the street (parking is free, just check the signs to avoid having a ticket). There are bus stops close-by (on Main St), it is very convenient to use Uber or Lyft and the Bird or Lime scooters to move around.

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. Just let us know your time of arrival and departure prior.

Important to know: as in all the Venice buildings that are directly on the boardwalk, the sound insulation is not optimal and we can hear the noise of the street. If you are a light sleeper or intolerant of the slightest noise, this is not the place for you. There is a camera on the porch outside of the unit that records every motion.

The highlights of this apartment are its incredible location, the two free bikes provided and the fact that there is free parking included, which is a true luxury in Venice Beach.

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...

Good location, place needs lots of work.
Pics on listing are not the same as what property looks like now. We were left used soap bars, dirty bathroom, dirty shower and very old/outdated beds and bedding. The place overall needs work, the blinds are falling apart, the sewer stinks, the water backs up in the sink and tub. Unable to use common areas. Host was communicative and gave great instructions to check ourselves in, but the place was just not what I would want my family to experience again. I could have gone to the pier and gotten something for the same price, but my mistake on wanting to try something new. The host allowed an extra person to stay, but it wasnt free/not a favor, I paid extra and that was what any hotel would have done too, except for the extra and paid price we experienced an old and dirty stay. I will not use this type of stay again, I will stick to my known hotels where I get what I paid for and expect.

In the thick of Venice Beach
I found the humble ground floor apartment right smack on the promenade, to be clean comfortable and certainly prime location in the midst of vibrant and entertaining Venice Beach. 2 rooms, 2 beds, Nicely appointed with standards plus a beach cruiser bicycle, tidy, kitchen. we would stay there again and bathroom.

Great location
This property was as expected. It is simple and clean. It’s all about the location which is steps away from the beach. We were able spend our days biking and skating just like we wanted. The fact that this place has an off site parking spot is important because parking in the area is expensive. The host was very responsive when we had questions. The area is loud because it’s right on the boardwalk so make sure you bring ear plugs for sleeping. It is definitely on the quieter side but there’s lots of beach traffic. We wanted the proximity to the beach so we’re fine with it. Loved having the use of the two bikes that the property comes with. If you want to feel like a local, this is the place to be.

Not for me
I was asked not to use the main entrance because short term rentals were frowned upon there. The general look and feel of the place was like a low-end college apartment. It was very close to Venice beach. So if that’s what you care about, you may like it. It was unsuitable for me. I left the morning after I checked in, and found somewhere else to stay for the remaining 6 days of my trip.

Wonderful location
I had the best time staying at this property. The apartment was nice and clean. Good size too! Big bed, huge living room , nice kitchen with everything you need. So nice that it comes with 2 bikes to use on the lovely bike path that is right near the apartment. The beach was so close! All you do is walk out the door, turn the corner and boom! Beach right there. I spent 2 days exploring Venice and Santa Monica and has a blast. It was nice to be so close to everything that I didn’t have to worry about driving or ubering. The host was lovely, she was easy to communicate with. Check in was so simple. I would definitely stay there again! I miss it already

Perfect!
This was the perfect weekend getaway for my daughter and I. Perfect Beach location and there are two bikes!! Even better there is a coveted FREE parking spot just a few blocks away. The unit is very basic and a bit noisy, but we were well informed on this by the listing and the very communicative owner. We brought good ear plugs and used the White noise apps on our phones. Worked like a charm. Owner was available quickly by text and responded to our questions within minutes.

Sympa
L’annonce était claire mais j’ai tout de même été surprise. L’appartement a ses fenêtres qui donnent sur un parking géré par des voituriers et ouverts 24/24. C’est donc bruyant. Les stores ne sont pas en bon état et laisse passer de lumière Pour autant, Marnie a été très réactive et serviable (mauvais code pour la boîte à clé). Nous étions en plein Venice beach, et l’appartement a tous les équipements nécessaires pour être autonome des l’arrivée. Si l’appartement est vieillot, il est toutefois très propre.

Good comms and everything worked as it should. Can’t beat location if you want to be by Venice Beach, less than 100 yds from your front door and your feet are on the sand. Property fits the area, so don’t expect 5* Hyatt luxury - you need to pay a lot more for that - if you want location, fun and serviceable unit, this place is great.

Amazing Stay
We had an amazing trip, our landlord was above and beyond. Ada was beyond nice, our accommodation was completely stocked with the essentials and I didn't have any need for anything. The apartment was beyond my expectations for closeness to the beach. I will definitely visit again.

Bad experience
Let's start with the positive: the location was perfect, very close to the boardwalk with parking space nearby. Initially the communication with the host was very good but after our arrival I mentioned to her that the accommodation was not very clean and the rest was a nightmare : the floor was very dirty, our feet were black after only 15 minutes, the condo was extremely dusty. There was some slimy residue on the floor near the fridge that looked like insect droppings. The condo is much less welcoming than in the photos, I believe that the condo has deteriorated over the years, it clearly lacks of maintenance. The host told me the condo was very acceptable, I just didn't answer because I was a little discouraged. At my surprise I received a message from the host after we left to tell me that the sofa had been broken and that she could ask me for a refund… but she propose an arrangement: she wanted me to give her a rating of 10/10 in exchange she would absorb the fee . Wow Don’t be fooled !! It's sad because it's a beautiful place that just needs a major refresh

This is right in the heart of Venice which will not disappoint if that’s what you’re seeking. It’s a busy little area yet everyone is super friendly and the area around the condo is clean. The Hostess had amazing communication and the place was as advertised. The parking is truly a four minute walk from the condo as described. I would stay here again.

Nightmare at arrival
The apartment is convenient, and near the seaside at Venice, but: At arrival, the owner had changed the code of the locker and the wifi without notice... and as we arrived late (11 pm) due to airport crazy police controls, the owner was visibly sleeping when we tried to contact her... We were not far of being obliged to take a room in a nearby hotel when we fortunately accessed a wifi and were able to receive the late message of the owner with the new codes... There is no grocery store nearby, only a very tiny one with almost nothing. There were noisy works in the building during our stay.

Long Weekend at the Beach
This property was amazing! It was exactly as described in the listing. The apartment was spacious and was just steps from the beach. I was able to hear the waves at night as I drifted off to sleep. I didn't have a vehicle with me during this trip, so it was important that I could walk or bike everywhere (bikes were provided as part of the rental). It really was within walking distance of a grocery store, numerous restaurants, and several activities. The host was easy to communicate with and was always very responsive. I will absolutely stay here again. I look forward to a return trip very soon.
