We stayed here for 8 nights on vacation. It was me, my wife, and 2 children (6 and 9). The house was sparkling clean and exactly as it looked in the photos. It was very well stocked with "extras" that made our vacation more enjoyable, like beach chairs, a cooler, towels, games for the kids, and all the kitchen appliances we could need. The location was fantastic and central to all of the LA beaches. We visited Universal and Disneyland, as well as Malibi, Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and even visited family in Irvine. Being central to these locations made travel easy. The neighborhood was clean, safe, and well kept. We were there in late July and slept with the windows open without any concern. The back yard was inviting with party lights, comfy chairs, and a fire pit. There are grocery stores, parks, and multiple Starbucks within minutes. Try Benny's Tacos...the pork carnitas quesadilla is amazing. I would definitely stay here again and recommend this property to family and friends. Helene was also very responsive to my messages.
