We had an amazing stay at this house. First off the location was great, just a few minutes walk from great restaurants on Abbot Kinney, and about a 10 minute walk from the beach, which we did daily with our two kids. The neighborhood was quiet at night which also helped with the kids' sleep.
The layout of the house and yard were very kid-friendly, which we appreciated. The front yard is totally fenced and secure, flat with grass and safe for toddlers to explore. The bedrooms are upstairs with an attached bath in the master and 2 additional bedrooms (with their own bathroom), so we were able to socialize downstairs after the kids went to sleep.
What was amazing for us as parents was the amount of gear they had at the house which made our packing and travel so much more seamless. They had a pack 'n play for a crib for our son, and a high chair. They had a stroller so we did not have to pack one. They provided beach toys and beach towels, and had soccer balls and a hula hoop for the yard. Also one of the upstairs bedrooms had bunk beds and tons of kids books and stuffed animals. When they knew we were bringing kids they added a small children's table downstairs as well as additional coloring books and crayons and toys for us, which was really thoughtful.
Hospitality was great! They gave us a welcome breakfast/brunch and goodies to snack on, and checked in with us during the trip. They also had some helpful hints about local restaurants and groceries to help us with food choices.
Overall a fantastic trip and we would totally stay here again!
