Disliked: Cleanliness
The host was not attentive, and has a hard time with speaking. The sealing fans and the floor were filthy dirty. The kitchen was a mess and could only fit one person in it. The couch was dirty and very uncomfortable. The TV was tiny. The chairs were all very uncomfortable. Our dog was hurt falling down the 2 story stair case, that comes into the place. The one good thing about the place was the shower. the shower has more room in it than the kitchen.

We stayed with our cat for 2 weeks. It was immaculate. The apartment is very close to the beach and in a safe area. Check-in was flawless and the owner Carmen responded to our questions promptly. The kitchenette was adequately stocked and bathroom and toiletries were plenty. Everything you would also want was available. Beach chairs, umbrella a hose to clean everything. A vacuum a washer and dryer with bleach, detergent and softener were available. I will comment be aware there are 18 steps to climb to get to the apartment. There is plenty of parking. We had a truck and plenty of room for 2 other vehicles if needed. Trash cans provided. We were so happy with our stay.

Lovely studio apartment.

My husband and I Stayed 3 nights. Very clean apartment. Nice size refrigerator/freezer. Amazing shower! Appears very new. Queen bed is high but they have a small step stool to assist. We did not use stove, microwave or toaster over during our visit. One note: there are 17 stairs up to the apartment. When it is wet they puddle and are slippery. We had a couple of days that had very heavy rain and in the evening it wasn't very well lit. Personally, ti believe the sheets were microfiber and too warm for me. Nice Cotton would have been better for the price.

This spot is in a perfect location, not far from the beach. It was extremely clean inside, and having a washer and dryer was a plus. I ran into the hosts while I was passing through, and they were really friendly! I'd definitely stay here again, 10/10.

Hands down the best decision we made

This place was amazing. I want to start by highlighting our host, Carmen, who was absolutely amazing and had exceptional hospitality. This place is an apartment above her home and it has all the amenities you could ask for. It was clean and absolutely fit the Florida vibe. It was seemless to check in and out which made our trip that much much care free. If you are looking for a place minutes to the beach with more than enough room and clean, this is it!!! If we ever come back this will be our go-to spot. Thank you Carmen for making our trip that much more memorable!

Vacation of our dreams!

This rental was very dreamy. It was clean, affordable, easy to talk to the landlord, and had many ammenities. They had some beach equiptment for when we went to the beach as well as beach towels. The neighborhood was great and we felt like we could come and go as needed. We would absolutely stay here again. Thank you!

Impressive

Can’t say enough about this gem located in a safe residential area. Miraculously clean with the added amenities of a luxury hotel. South Venice Beach is a 15 minute Uber trip away, ($15) and yes that is for a night of entertainment. Not a negative. The beautiful unit is a stairway and a half up from ground level to consider for seniors or others who may have difficulties.
