Victoria's house at the beach in Playa Del Rey is perfect. It's right across the street from the sand on a quiet street. It has off street parking, but street parking is easy too. It's so close to the beach, that walking back and forth from your towel in the sand is a quick jaunt.
If you're not familiar with Playa Del Rey, it's a quiet beach that is not nearly as crowded as Santa Monica & Venice beach. There is always plenty of room on the sand and decent surf with life guards on duty. It is near LAX so you get some airplane noise, but you barely notice it. It does not impact your enjoyment of the area. The small town has a few good spots to eat, and its location is an easy jumping off point to tour all of Los Angeles. If you like a less crowded spot, without the pretension of Manhattan Beach, this is it.
Victoria's house has the best roof deck! With a firepit and barbecue, we would barbecue, eat dinner, relax by the firepit and watch the sunset every night! She had everything we needed at the house. We didn't have any issues and loved our stay! Victoria is a great host and we highly recommend her home!
