PROS:
The house was well maintained and spacious, and Anatoley was quick to respond to questions.
The neighborhood was quiet and relatively close to beaches.
Beach chairs, a sea kayak, one bike, beach unbrellas, etc, were available for use.
CONS:
The property was as listed, except the ferry pass to the neighborhood island was not available. Use of the ferry was one of the main reasons I selected this property.
Also, only one bike was available for four of us. Listing stated "bikes", but when I checked with the owner (after making the initial deposit for the property), he stated only one bike was available. Again, nothing huge, but availability of bikes was one of the reasons I selected this property.
Anyone renting in the Venice area should be warned that city water is terrible (smells of sulfur). The house did have one tap in the kitchen that provided filtered water. Otherwise, we'd have had to invest in bottled water.
WiFi password was not available at the house, and I had to contact the owner to access it.
There was no information provided for the area (suggested restaurants or points of interest).
