WE ARE ENVIRONMENTALLY CONSCIOUS PROPERTY:
HEATING & COOLING: The house has a portable AC unit since extra insulation & double decking was installed, so it’s very ECO conscious insulated. House is 2 blocks from the beach, and the California climate is perfect; never too hot or too cold. In the summer months, we open windows for the ocean breeze to cool us off and in the winter, we turn the heaters on when needed and turn them off when leaving windows or doors open on sunnier days. When you leave the house, please do not leave the heaters on in the winter or the AC cooling on in the summer.
COOLING: We have a small portable AC unit cooling that requires ice cubes and can cool off a room if needed in about an hour.
HEATING: We have 8 radiant energy saving wall heaters all around the houses & one portable radiant heater (just in case).
KITCHEN & BATHROOM SOAPS & SHAMPOOS & LAUNDRY DETERGENTS are all eco friendly & organic.
REUSABLE COTTON KITCHEN TOWELS: Instead of paper towels we use black cotton reusable towels which our cleaning staff always leaves plenty of on top of the kitchen counters.
BLACKOUT BLINDS: are on all windows for those light sensitive sleepers.
CLOSETS & CLOTHES HANGING:
MASTER BEDROOM UPSTAIRS has 6 drawer chest, 4 drawer night stand & hanging rod by the California King size bed.
MURPHY BEDROOM UPSTAIRS has two long closets next to the queen size bed on each side.
TRASH: Leave the trash in trash cans below the kitchen sinks and in the bathrooms or by the office desk and our cleaners will take care of it. If you stay longer or have more trash our bins are located outside in the back alley behind the black guest house.

“Eco modern zen” is the best way to describe my place. I travel a lot for work and experience cool amenities in different houses and continents so I built my house with some of those amenities in mind. Also when I come home I like to relax and enjoy all Venice has to offer: great chill vibes, waves, surfing, best restaurants, art galleries, unique boutique shopping and MY HOUSE. Enjoy it!!!
