We had a great family vacation over Christmas and new year visiting our daughter nearby. The house was easily large enough to accommodate all of us. It boasts a cool interior with lots of midcentury modern charm and is ever so cosy. It is very well equipped with plenty of towels, cleaning detergents, kitchen utensils, spices, coffee (;-)) etc.
The garden with a large patio and lots of comfortable sitting opportunities is very inviting although, as it was December, we didn't really use it. We enjoyed picking fresh juicy tangerines and lemons straight off the tree though!
The neighbourhood is quiet and residential, yet it is very easy to get around with easy access to freeways leading you into most Los Angeles areas within about 30 to 40 minutes. The Getty Center and UCLA can be reached in about 10 to 15 minutes.
Kate and Michael are great, accommodating and uncomplicated hosts. Our requests were always answered within less than one hour. This was our first visit to Los Angeles and we are more than happy to have spent it at Kate and Michael's house and would recommend it without hesitation.
