The NoHo Compound exceeded ours and our guests expectation in so many ways! The place is secluded and gorgeous but at the same time right in the thick of everything with a high end grocery store and shops less than 5 minutes away. The photos don't even do it justice. Crystal, Bennet and Abbey were the kindest hosts. They were available to answer any question we had, any time of day. They thoughtfully had the house stocked with snacks and drinks and left little gifts and personal touches everywhere. We were shocked with delight around every corner. I'm in the hospitality business and I've never had such hospitality anywhere.
The Compound is just set up for fun. The expansive pool comes with the cutest floats and there's even water basketball to be played! My group spent at least 80% of our time in the amazing pool and spa. It has many different levels and Baja shelves which were real hits with the kids. Next to the pool there's an ivy covered overhang containing the fantastic huge grill area with an outdoor fridge and ice box, pool table, huge stand up connect four, giant jenga and a bunch of other fun games. Now you understand. Why would we leave the pool area?
The pool area has 4 different fire pits that make the night feel even more special. One is right next to the pool and looks so gorgeous reflecting in the water. The large fire pit with the sunken seating area was perfect for late night wine and conversation with our friends after the kids had gone to bed. The thoughtful outdoor lighting added to the magical night time experience.
The compound itself is thoughtfully set up with 2 large houses on either side of the pool. This allows groups to have privacy, yet still be together. The main house has folding external doors that open the living area directly to the spa deck. The outdoor/indoor living blur is amazing and feels liberating. The beds are super comfortable but the showers...I think I might have had the best shower of my life in the master bedroom of the main house. All the showers have a luxury shower tower system with dual rain shower heads and a variety of different functions but the master shower has that AND an additional 2' X 2' rain shower right in front of it. I highly recommend setting the shower tower to mist and using the huge rain shower head. I'm kind of obsessed. We seriously might have to book this house again just for that shower.
Did I mention there's a wall mounted Polaroid camera in the main house?! You can download the pix to your phone with a QR code and or print them out for keepsakes. This house, is just set up for fun. They have really thought of everything and I can't recommend to other people enough that if you're looking for a good time with a group - this is your happy place.
