Photos and Description of the Venice Beach vacation condo rental
Right on the Venice boardwalk! One of two, two-bedroom condos that can be rented independently or combined

Come experience total bliss in Venice, California at the Nirvana, two-bedroom condo on the second floor of the Buddha House building. The Buddha House has been a Venice landmark for many years. It's located just steps from the ocean and right on the sand and the Venice Bike Path. The Lower unit, the Zen is also for rent, listing VRBO#426055\\Placed right in the heart of Venice beach, next to famous neighbors, the magic of this property is that is it very private and serene …..the only views being a lush tropical garden along the entire side of the building, visible from all the bedrooms and living rooms, and of course the beautiful Pacific Ocean.//The Nirvana Suite can be found one flight up, on the second floor of the Buddha house. An amazing home with breathtaking unobstructed gorgeous views of the beach, the Venice Pier and the beautiful Pacific Ocean. The entire home is very private, with no view of neighbors. All bedrooms have views of the tropical garden next door and partial views of the ocean.//This home is decorated with comfortable, contemporary furniture, new oak wood flooring in the dining room, kitchen and hallway, and carpeting in the living room and bedrooms. The living room has ocean views from three sides and a balcony from which to watch spectacular sunsets.//Get cozy in the evenings in front of an italian marble gas operated fireplace or relax while watching a movie on the 47” flat screen LED television with DVD player and Surround Sound system.//The dining table seats six comfortably, and the kitchen is provided with refrigerator with ice maker, electric stove, dishwasher, microwave oven, coffee maker, blender and toaster.//The hallway leads to a bathroom with walk-in shower and stackable washer/dryer. The first bedroom has a queen sized bed, large closet with sliding doors, 20” flat screen television with DVD player, and private lush garden views.//The master suite has a queen sized bed and large closet with mirrored sliding doors and a full sized bath with tub/shower combo. It has a 32” flat screen LED television with DVD player and a mini fridge and private garden/ ocean view.//Home Nirvana also has wireless internet, electric heat, and one covered parking space alongside the building.//Both Zen & Nirvana can be rented individually or combined to accommodate larger groups.//As most beach properties along the California Coastline, this property is not equipped with an A/C unit. With average beach temperatures ranging from 65 to 75 degrees year round, air conditioning is not generally needed in our beach areas. For our warmer days, each of our beach properties is equipped with portable ventilator fans which, when combined with open windows, allow the fresh ocean air to circulate and cool your property to a very pleasant temperature.

Chris purchased this condo in 2010
Why Chris chose Venice Beach

We choose to buy this vacation rental because it is right in front of the beach.

What makes this condo unique

The unique benefits I enjoy is the beautiful ocean view from the Nirvana unit and in the Zen I love the seating area outside which also includes a BBQ. It's a great play to hang out with my family and close friends.

Venice Beach is an Interesting Place

We found our vacation home to be in good condition, clean and well appointed. The view from the balcony was gorgeous as we were able to look at the waves rolling in and hear the surf. There was ALWAYS plenty of people watching to do as the sidewalk directly below was full of people, dogs and skateboarders. The walk just a few feet from that was generally full of bike riders.
We enjoyed the little business center and restaurants to the south of the house. However Venice Beach Park, to the north of the house, was a bit seedy filled with homeless people and pan handlers.

Owner's Response: Thank you so much for your feedback! We are glad that you were able to enjoy the amenities of the house and the neighborhood to its fullest! It's amazing what the sounds of the surf and a good sunset can do for the soul?!

Venice is a colorful area, with great diversity and wealth distribution, and that is what we love about it! We get asked often if the area is safe, and our response is always, "yes." The caveat to that being that as with anywhere, you must always maintain your personal safety, do your research, ask questions and enjoy the local flair.

There will always be areas to be more alert in, in any vacation community, and Venice is no different. So, thank you for pointing that out to our future guests. We hope that you get to enjoy the sound of the surf and people watching from this comfortable property again soon!

Sincerely:

Globe Homes and Condos

We were delighted to stay at the Buddha house - terrific location, fun people watching, clean and very livable. My one criticism was that the blinds on the front window are stuck so that the spectacular view of the ocean is only partially visible out the living room windows - and not at all from the sofa! Otherwise, a wonderful vacation house with a very helpful renting agency. The eccentric and incredibly jolly owner lives in the third unit of the house - another bonus.

It was so lovely to wake up to the sound of the ocean after my first night arriving. This place is lovely, close to the ocean, and conveniently located to restaurants, shops, etc. I *highly* recommend renting one of the cruiser bikes for nice rides along the beach and to get around Abbot Kinney and Main St. I don't care for the Venice Beach loud scene so it was refreshing that the location of this place was away from that chaos and it allowed me to have a peaceful, recharging vacation. I highly recommend this sweet place.

I was coming home to the West Coast for a visit and really wanted to spend some time with some close friends, so we rented the upstairs unit of the Buddha House. The house is exactly like the photos. Well laid out, clean, and in the perfect area. The apartment could be supplied a little better. There are 2 beach chairs and 2 beach towels. It's the little things that could take this from really good to totally awesome. The staff was very helpful, they met us at the house, made sure bikes were available.

The house is south of muscle beach makes it a bit quieter, but walking distance to everything at the pier and muscle beach. We rode bikes all over the area, and didn't actually move our vehicle until we left. Everything is that close.

We hope to return again someday. I really miss the pacific!!

Thank you for the terrific accommodations, ease of making the reservation, checkin&checkout process. The house has a perfect location in Venice Beach with easy walking distance of the fun of the boardwalk and great restaurants on Washington. Having onsite parking, beach chairs and availability to rent bicycles onsite really made this an affordable & fabulous vacation. Excellent water pressure,comfortable beds, and private bathrooms. Watching the making of movie right outside the patio one day, surfers and all the "characters" of the area who stop to chat or take pix with Buddha made coming home to the quiet of Michigan that much harder. Thank you, wish we could have stayed longer, but we created great memories during our short stay!

We booked from finding online, after speaking with Globe Homes contact. We (four adults) were very pleased with the house (we stayed on the upper level). The property was as described, in good condition, clean and in a great ocean front location. Ocean breezes in August kept the unit cool, no need for A/C (and we're A/C East Coast users). We called when we checked in after 5 PM to request a few bedding items, and they were delivered within the hour. We would definitely return!

My family enjoyed the Zen (lower) condo for the past week. This location was ideal to walk to restaurants near the Venice Pier as well as a longer walking distance (thankfully) but accessible bizarre entertainment in Venice. The Buddha was an attraction in itself and we meet many people strolling along the ocean front walk - my son actually had the fountain and lights flowing at one point. The rooms were very nice; a quiet relaxing condo with excellent amenities. We stayed in Venice due to the access to the beach while visiting a family member and seeing the Hollywood sites - it was perfect! We will be a repeat customer! Enjoy your vacation at this ideal condo!

The Buddha House attracts allot of attention from passers by who stop and take photo's of the large Buddha at the front of the house and often say hi when they see you sitting on the balcony. Inside the Nirvana House, the lounge has a great view of the beach and ocean, kitchen is fully equipped and bedrooms are spacious and well presented. It's a great place to stay, so close to the main shops on Vencie Beach and all the interesting characters that pass by. Close enough to stroll to Santa Monica, visit the pier and do a bit of shopping. We would reconmend the Buddha House for rental. The one thing that we found that we could've really done with was a phone for making local calls as we didn't have a cell phone. We think the house would really benefit from having a phone, even contacting concierge services wasn't easy as we had to find a pay phone that worked. The house does require some TLC in areas, ranch slider didn't lock and was very stiff, blinds in all rooms need attention and we couldn't find the house manual. These things aren't majors and we really did enjoy watching the sun set on the balcony and the ease of moving around around Venice Beach because of the location. Hope to be back in LA in the near future.
