Our stay in Hermosa beach was just great. Carol’s place is well-located and we walked to the beach, pier, and restaurants almost every day. There’s also a lot to do nearby but we loved riding bikes up and down the strand the most, reaching south to Palos Verdes and north to Marina del Rey. When not enjoying the nearby area, we found relaxing in the unit easy, especially with the cool ocean breezes and fresh air. Seeing the ocean every morning, afternoon, and evening made this a great place to stay.
We also did self-employed work during our stay. Although this is a studio format, it’s quite large and afforded more than enough space for the two of us to spread out and spend quiet time working online, working together, and watching television after hours. The neighborhood is very peaceful. We had the chance to talk with the owner and a few of her neighbors on several occasions. It’s clear this is a friendly, welcoming neighborhood. Parking,which could a challenge at most Southern California beaches, was never a problem.
All in all, we had a thoroughly enjoyable stay and would be happy to return again in the future.
