Oozing with charm and character, this sun-filled bungalow with its own private garden is a dream for families or a group of friends. With a relaxed, lived-in feel, this home isn't over-the-top luxurious, but then that's not Venice's vibe – head to the nearby Venice Boardwalk and you'll soon discover that the spirit of California's hippie heyday is alive and well. We love the cosy setup and open floorplan, which invites guests to move around seamlessly between inside and out. Throw open the doors on a sunny day, and you'll have instant access to a refreshing saltwater lap pool, an inviting Jacuzzi, and private writing shed. Plus, you're just a few blocks from Venice Beach and all that the area has to offer.

  • No time for average – We reject thousands of homes worldwide, so you don't have to.
  • Hosts we know – With track records of high-quality hosting.
