We stayed at Victoria's house on our recent family vacation. The house was perfectly located near several beaches and a short drive to downtown LA. There are plenty of shops and restaurants/bars in the neighborhood within walking distance. The beach closest to the house was overly busy and was so easy to get to by foot. The house was the perfect size for our family of 5 and is situated in a very upscale neighborhood. It is decorated very nicely and has all the necessary amenities. The sunsets were beautiful from the rooftop deck and we actually cooked out a few times. Victoria was so accommodating and checked in with us periodically during the week to make sure everything was ok. I would highly recommend anyone stay here if you want to have the beach house experience near a big city.
