This property was a lovely, spacious home base for our adult family of 5. Easy street parking and fantastic location close to the coast. We enjoyed the outdoor space and being surrounded by flowers. We very much appreciated access to beach chairs, towels, umbrella and a cart, and the care Kathleen demonstrated to us before and during our stay. This house has great character!

I stayed with my two young adult children, and the house was so beautiful!! Kathleen was very accommodating with our early arrival and late checkout. Everything we needed (and then some) was provided. We felt very safe, and walked to breakfast a couple of times to Superba and then to Abbot Kenney for some shopping. My son rented a birdie and cruised the neighborhood a bit. Stayed four days, visiting my brother that lives in the area. We will definitely reach out to Kathleen again for our next trip! Wonderful location, easy access to everything. Thank you Kathleen, we made some amazing memories! Katie

Idyllic house with a beautiful garden and romantic, lovely, peaceful interiors. Kathleen was a wonderful host and we had a great time. The house is on a pretty street and very close to the wonderful restaurants in Venice. Our three year old loved blowing bubbles in the garden.

Beautiful property and convenient location close to the beach, shopping and more. Clean and comfortable house. Kathleen was a gracious hostess and took care of everything we needed!

Charming with vintage theme & cottage plant-scape, comforting bedrooms, good water pressure, kitchen fully equipped + more. Cat lovers - when hostess on property 2 Himalayans+Tabby to indulge with.

Thanks for hosting us in such a beautiful home! We hope to return and stay longer!

Easy check in. Wonderful stay in this very beautifully done art home. The host was super kind and welcoming to our family. Would definitely stay again!

WOW! This was one of my FAVORITE properties I have ever stayed at. Kathleen is SO nice and accommodating and her home is absolutely magical. Photos truly do not do this place justice. The beds were so comfortable, the home was extremely clean, and the are was amazing. The design and decor in this place is...unreal. Extremely gorgeous!! The neighborhood is walkable and there is ample street parking (which I was worried about). When we are back in the area we will definitely be booking again. Thank you Kathleen!

Great location, close to everything!

The property is beautiful and in a great location. Our host was fabulous! She was friendly, easy to get in touch with, and provided wonderful accommodations. I would 10/10 stay here again.

Great location, nice property, owner was very helpful!!

Kathleen was an excellent host and her two bedroom cottage was very comfortable. Location is excellent - walking distance to Abbott Kinney Blvd. and all the shops and restaurants.

Kathleen is a super host. The house itself was perfect - beautifully decorated, clean, and equipped with all the necessary amenities for a comfortable and convenient stay. The location was also ideal, just a short walk to Venice Beach (about 1 mile), which allowed me to enjoy running along the shore. The neighborhood was also great, with plenty of restaurants, shops, and cafes within walking distance. It was easy to get around, and I felt safe and secure during my stay. Kathleen was always available to answer any questions or concerns I had and there is a file of extensive local information available in the property. Her own place is near by but at no point did we ever feel like she was watching over us. We love cats and we were even left some cat food and treats for us to feed the regular garden visitor Miu Miu. In summary, we had a fantastic experience staying at this house near Venice Beach, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to stay in the area.

Great stay and Kathleen was a fantastic host!

This is a very comfortable home well located on a quiet street in the heart of Venice. The place is larger than the pictures make it appear and has everything you might want for comfort and cooking. The host was very responsive and helpful. Really great spot.

House is always so much better than a hotel. Was pretty had everything we needed. Great location for us to get to our events there also for food shopping and restaurants. Worked out great for us. Thank you.

I will be back! Kathleen was a great host and responsive right away when we reached out. Her home is charming; beds are comfy, lots of pillows and blankets for chillin, well stocked kitchen and a charming garden. Abbot Kinney and the beach are a walk away through a lovely neighborhood. The perfect place to enjoy Venice.

What a great Cottage indeed. Full of magic and great energy. The rooms are fantastic. The garden is spectacular. Very cozy. The owner was very attentive and polite. We had a great time and the location is priceles. Walking distance to Erewhon and Abbot Kinney

Great property and owner. Very easy to deal.with and very helpful as she has been in the area for over 20 years. The gardens are lovely and the house is fabulous. We really enjoyed the cats on the property also very friendly and cute. Thanks again for everything.

It was comfortable homie feel to the house, friendly neighborhood.The host was wonderful and accommodating I will be returning to work d DC d💪

Three girl friends spending a long weekend reunion in Venice. The property was clean, nicely decorated and well-appointed with lots of unique touches and the beds were very comfortable. Overall very nice property and owner but there were a couple of things that were a little quirky we've never experienced in any other rental property that may have been helpful to know beforehand - There were a lot of personal items (in the kitchen, cabinets, closets, refrigerator, etc.) and it almost made us feel like we were "invading" someone's personal space... also half-eaten things in the fridge (to-go salad and opened drinks). The contractor was also frequently coming through the front gate and going to the back studio. He was perfectly polite, but just made it feel a little less private especially if we were sitting out in the front. Some large boxes and deliveries were left out on the front porch during our entire stay - didn't really get in our way, but just wasn't the nicest to look at.

Our stay in Venice at this beautiful cottage was beautiful and enchanting! Everything about the cottage was amazing! The fragrance from the roses in the yard that encapsulated the cottage was heavenly! The home's interior was spectacular- right out of a magazine! Actually it was featured in a magazine and book! It was full of peace and tranquility! We had the pleasure of meeting Kathleen the owner. She is so sweet! We highly recommend staying at this beautiful cottage! It was truly a wonderful experience!

Wow, what a fun place! Totally not “VRBO international” style but instead Kathleen’s unique & personal style in every corner. If you’re a minimalist like me, first you’re nervous, then quickly you relax into the charm (okay it’s 85% charm and 10% crystals and 5% chaos). Kathleen’s a wonderful host, the fridge is full, the beds are comfy, there’s east parking on the street, great hangouts in easy walking distance, and a skeptical cat name Miu Miu. What more does one need?

The place was so cute and perfect. Beds could not have been more comfortable. We felt right at home! Thank you Kathleen!!

This is a perfect spot to explore Venice. Quiet, extremely cute neighborhood, walking distance to the beach, near Whole Foods, restaurants, and cute shops. The interior was very carefully decorated with a lot of luxurious details--it feels like you're staying with a very tasteful friend. Perfect for our small family!

This was one of my most pleasant vacation rental experiences. The home is like something out of a fairytale, with storybook gardens and decorations. The monochromatic, crisp color palette leaves you feeling serene and completely comfortable. The mattresses feel like marshmallows with equally fluffy bedding. I thoroughly enjoyed soaking in the deep claw-foot tub. Every time you’re outside in the garden you can smell the many varieties of roses, lavender, honeysuckle, and jasmine. The host even placed fresh flowers from her garden throughout the house for us to enjoy during our stay. The house is in a great location- close to the beach, restaurants, and shopping. We enjoyed dining at “The Butcher’s Daughter” down on Abbot Kinney. The host was great at communicating with us and anticipated anything we might need. All necessities were provided- above and beyond. I would absolutely stay here again, and wish I didn’t have to leave. 5 stars.

The cottage was very cute and well located, but the host is strange. The place is completely done in a shabby-chic aesthetic, including vintage white/rust wrought iron outdoor chairs. A decorative leaf of filigree broke off the armrest of one of the chairs due to rust. I proactively alerted the host because I thought she'd like to know, but in now way was it our fault nor did it render the chair unusable. The host didn't say anything to me about it at the time. However, after we checked out, I saw that she filed a damage claim against us for $250, the entire replacement cost of the chair. I am a STR host myself and am generally sympathetic to hosts, but this was completely unreasonable: If the chair or any part of it broke due to someone simply sitting in it, maybe it isn't suitable for guest use. She also asked us to feed a cat while we were there, and unpacked boxes of new furniture while we were out, leaving the contents on the front porch of the house. The whole experience of staying at this house was weird and I cannot recommend it.

We had a wonderful experience staying in this beautiful and well located home. Our host went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable.

You will absolutely fall in love with this charming house. The house is close to the beach, restaurants, hiking, shopping, and most importantly...great coffee. The owner, Kathleen, was extremely nice, helpful and attentive to any need you may have. I would highly recommend staying in this beautiful home. If you love cats, you’re in luck.. she has two of the most gorgeous Himalayan cats I’ve ever seen.

Truly amazing little house, perfectly decorated and incredible location. Highly recommend a stay here if you're looking for a Venice experience!

Absolutely adored the home, host, and every amenity. Kathleen the owner of the property has crafted every detail of the home to perfection. From the white French doors as you enter - to the antiqued chandeliers to the vintage tubs with brass fittings. The place was Superb, walking distance of anything youd want to do in Venice and if there is a cat lover among you be prepared for the sweetest pair of Himalayans. Cheers - enjoy - 100% recommendation

We had a terrific stay at this property and really enjoyed all that Venice has to offer in addition to the proximity to LA beach towns. This property is featured in various design magazines and deservedly so. The owner is easily accessible on the property which made our stay much more comfortable - highly recommended!
