About this property

Venice Beach - Extended Stay - Urban Lodge

Situated within AK Live/Work, a crisp modern mixed-use building that received awards from both the AIA/LA and the Westside Urban Forum in 2007, Space B affords the ultimate urban lifestyle within the relaxed coastal town of Venice. Located just blocks from the beach and hovering above renowned Abbot Kinney Boulevard, this exceptionally designed, crafted and furnished apartment is adjacent to a host of one-of-a-kind shops and restaurants.
Punctuated with planted courtyards, terraces and balconies, Space B boasts wonderful indoor/outdoor relationships and spatial transparency. The result is a serene inner world, bathed in natural light, which draws off the vibrant energy of this exceptional pedestrian oriented street. Space B is white plaster, inside and out, with floor to ceiling glass that visually connects indoor and outdoor spaces, folding views of courtyard gardens and Venice's unique streetscape into the experience of the space.



In the evening, looking up and down the palm lined street and across the rooftops of the lively beach town, one can imagine being on a ship coming into port, a notion that is only reinforced by the thoughtfully arranged spaces within.

Impeccable Property
There is not a better location in Venice Beach than this property, and it is an architectural gem. We will definitely return.

Wonderful stay in Venice Beach
We travelled over the 2018 holidays with our adult children. We wanted a place where anyone could leave home and walk to shops, coffee, restaurants, etc. - certainly not easily done in LA. Michael's place was perfectly located for this. Abbot Kinney is the main street in Venice, bustling with great shops and restaurants, yet it's only a few miles to Ocean Ave and the heart of Santa Monica and a few blocks to the beach. The house has all the amenities you could need, and was laid out perfectly for our family. Michael was a gracious host - although he was away during our stay, we were greeted by his house manager who was very helpful for the walk through when we checked in. It was a truly memorable and enjoyable vacation. Our drive back to LAX took about 20 minutes - it's that close to the airport, helpful if you have an early morning flight. We'd like to return someday. Highly recommend!

terrific experience
This is a unique property--impressive and perfectly designed for the setting. Large rooms, remarkable use of patio and terrace spaces. Indoor and outdoor living fused beautifully. Location could not be better. I stayed for almost 2 weeks and never needed a car. The apartment is beautifully appointed and spotless. The owner made clear his hope that I would treat the space gently, and I did. If you're looking for a beach crash pad where you can bump around and leave your marks, then look elsewhere. This is a gem and should be treated as such.

Outstanding location. Outstanding property. Even more outstanding owner!
Outstanding location. Outstanding property. Even more outstanding owner! My wife and two children and I had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful property. We were supposed to stay at another home away property which fell through. We had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful property instead. Michael, the owner, was very accommodating to us. The property is even more amazing in person than the pictures. It is an absolutely fantastic place to stay for your time in Venice! The property itself is spotless. Right in the middle of all the activities you would want in Venice. Not to mention the property is architecturally amazing!
