This is an amazing crash pad to spend a few days in South Redondo. Just a block from the beach, it’s also practically in the heart of Riviera Village which was the perfect locale for a more walkable, laid back SoCal family vacation. Hidden gem, really.
The apartment is pretty basic, but has everything you need. Being so close to the ocean meant the breeze was enough to keep the place cool—didn’t miss having AC at all. The sleeping options in the listing are a little confusing: there’s one massive King Bed in the single bedroom. In the living room, there’s a twin daybed, and what the photos don’t show is the twin trundle tucked under it as well. It was a perfect sleeping arrangement for me and my two teens. FYI, there is no view of the sunset from the unit itself. There is a wonderful view inland of the beach town skyline at sunrise.
The hosts were incredibly responsive and allowed us to check-in late after a long day at Disneyland. The self checkin and checkout process was smooth and easy.
And again, I can’t stress how ideal of a location this is—right at the beach, but also blocks from restaurants, shopping, a Vons etc. I’d definitely come back!
