After visiting friends in Los Angeles, we wanted to get away to a sleepy beach town nearby to unwind before the Thanksgiving holiday. Caroline's place really fit the bill perfectly!
As others have stated in their reviews, you really CAN hear the ocean quite well and see the magnificent view of it (including a sunrise in November!) from this fabulous apartment in a charming historic building. My husband and I enjoyed our stay so much that we wished we could rent out this apartment for ourselves!
The layout of this small apartment is done very cleverly and you'll never feel cramped. The bed (and linens) are extremely comfortable and the bathroom/shower is fantastic! I didn't know how much I would love being able to see the ocean while showering, ha!
The location can't be beat. The beach is literally across the street and about one block away, so you are just minutes from dipping your feet in the cool Pacific ocean and walking on the sand. This is where you'll want to go to get the best view of those famous California sunsets!
San Pedro has some interesting tourist attractions like the Korean Friendship Bell and the LA Port / Maritime Museum, and there are some good food options, though we found ourselves in Long Beach for several meals, which was just a quick 20 minute drive away (short by LA traffic standards!).
We only had a couple of small issues/requests when we arrived which Caroline responded to promptly. We hope to come back and visit again soon!
