The location is superb: short walk to the beach, short walk to a market and restaurants and everything you need. It's in a stunning neighborhood and so close to LAX. The place is roomy, and it is studio style (bed in the front room). We had access to beach supplies: chairs, towels, toys, umbrellas, boogie boards.
The owners were very friendly, accommodating, and helpful. They live adjacent to the rental, sharing the courtyard, and literally steps from their door. I think it's important to know this that the owners are very present. We saw them multiples times per day as we came and left the property. If you are looking for privacy, this might be a problem for you.
