This place (hosted by Shimmy and Julia) is awesome. It is literally in the heart of the Riviera and it is like steps of the ramp that takes you down to the beach. It has a private parking that is premium for that location, a little balcony up front which is unique to that apartment since it is located in the corner. The layout is very open and quite well decorated. When the title of the listing says "airy" and "100 steps" they are spot on. We would go early in the morning to sit at the top of the ramp to just take in the sea breeze and what the dolphins swim around. The Redondo pier is maybe 1 mile from the apartment and it was pretty cool to walk to it (though you wouldn't want to do it more than a couple times a day - but the pier is pretty cool with cool stores, food, and rentals). The bathroom is small but surprisingly spacious (must be how it is laid out), and the kitchen the same - actually the kitchen even has an eating nook which barely impacts the working area (very nicely done). Everything was clean and the color selection and lightning were very good and functional. We loved the place, and Shimmy was in constant contact with us to make sure everything was to our standards (she even dropped extra set of beach towels just in case). If you love the beach and want to go to relax, or a romantic getaway, or even some short-term business you won't be disappointed. Oh, and even though it is kind of like in the heart of the Riviera it was surprisingly quiet at night. Loved it.
