We highly recommend David’s vacation home in Long Beach!
Location, location, location! Walking distance to beach, Rosie’s Dog Beach, the Belmont Veterans Memorial Pier, Von’s Grocery Store, and many excellent restaurants. We ate at Chuck’s Coffee Shop, Belmont Brewing Company and Apola Gyro Grill. All were within a 15 minute walk and we had great meals at each place. There are also some good bakeries on 2nd street.
The neighborhood is very pretty - homes are well kept and front gardens beautifully manicured. We enjoyed going for walks in the area and felt safe too.
The pictures of David’s place on Airbnb are spot on. The place was very clean, the beds with white bedding were nice and comfy, and there were plenty of fluffy, white towels. There were lots of hangers in the closet and hand soap was provided in the bathrooms and kitchen. Paper towels, tissue and toilet paper were also provided. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pans and basic appliances. We walked to the beach most mornings, and some days we stopped at Von’s and brought back fresh bagels that we toasted in the toaster.
We found the extra half bath in the garage convenient. Also we availed of the washer and dryer in the garage (David provided some laundry detergent pods as well). Extras, like big, thick beach towels, and some beach chairs and umbrellas were a nice touch. The garage was also super handy for parking our full-size Camry. The upstairs patio balcony was nice and relaxing for enjoying a few meals and having coffee while reading the newspaper.
We brought our little pup and found the small outdoor area perfect for his needs. He really enjoyed going to Rosie’s Dog Beach in the mornings too!
Thanks David for a wonderful stay!
