This place is a gem: amazing outdoor space + very cool indoor/outdoor space + super comfortable bedrooms and Jack & Jill bath that’s perfectly appointed and well stocked.
There were so many amenities we used (bikes, longboard skateboards, laundry) and more we didn’t get a chance to (gaming console, bbq, separate conference room workspace).
Aurelien is an outstanding host and his place is perfect for work away from home or as a base of operations for fun in LA, which is what my family was looking for as we made an escape from NYC late winter weather.
Redwood is a super location that’s surprisingly private given how close and accessible it is to a vital thoroughfare. We biked to Venice Beach and were easily able to hit amazing restaurants and cafes.
We ate out a lot, though we had plans to use the kitchenette and outdoor grill. The ability to eat every breakfast outside and eat and drink cocktails outside under the California sky more than makes up for the quirk of not having a full kitchen. You don’t miss it for a week.
Can’t wait to return when we want to see our LA friends and reconnect with California living. Aurelian knows exactly how to make it accessible and amazingly comfortable and easy for visitors to do exactly that.
