I can highly recommend Dan and Kristens place for families wanting a holiday within the LA area. We were a 6, 2 grandparents, 2 parents and teenage kids 15 and 12. The house had ample space for all, with everyone getting there own bed and pretty much there own room. The 2 bathrooms meant that mornings and evenings were easy and the living spaces were ample for us all. We used the kitchen and dining space on a number of occasions and had everything we needed. The purpose of our visit was for a 10 day LA holiday and so we used this location as a base for all the usual LA stuff, we found that we could travel everywhere within an hour really easily and the house meant we could take packed lunches and snacks on our travels. We spent some chill out days around the house and local area and again the location of this place as great. I highly recommend Portfolio Coffee shop on 4th (5 mins walk), Ralphs groceries on 4th for all your food shopping (2 mins walk) and Seal Beach for beach days (10 mins drive).
