For the past 6 years, I rent a Ventura beach house for an early family Christmas weekend. Family from Solvang to San Diego meet up with our Ventura family members to celebrate and enjoy time together. This was the first time we rented the Beach Bungalow. It was exceptional! Although a little further from the beach than other stays, it was perfect! Clean, nice decor and outdoor deck and seating, comfy beds and furniture, well stocked kitchen with dishes, utensils, cookware, condiments, etc. The hostess was super communicative and accommodating. No stress. Full fun! We'd love to return next year.
