Excellent stay at Anthony's Suite #8.
Finding a place in LA/Southern CA that is right on or across from the beach - and that most people can actually afford - is not an easy task, and this space delivers on both counts and much more.
Out the window there's a beautiful view of the ocean and the broad sandy beach right across busy Pacific Coast Highway, and there are two convenient underpasses close by so you don't have to make a mad dash across PCH (not recommended! :-D ) and can still be on the beach in 2 minutes or less.
Inside the suite there is a comfortable bed, well equipped kitchenette with fridge, microwave, coffee maker, rice cooker and two burner electric stove which works very well. TV, WiFi, nice bathroom...really anything I could've asked for. Even beach towels/chairs are provided!
The space is tastefully decorated with a retro beach vibe and really has character.
As an extra bonus and really living up to the Air*BnB* designation you get a daily meal credit for the downstairs restaurant which essentially amounts to getting a free breakfast (although it can be applied to any meal). And the staff downstairs is super friendly and makes you feel like you're part of the family.
If you're coming from far away or abroad you should be aware that this *is* LA/Southern California, the downstairs restaurant is hoppin' and PCH is a busy road, so this is not a quiet island oasis type experience. Thoughtfully, earplugs were provided for any light sleepers but I never needed them.
Anthony is a great host and always quick to reply if you have any questions or needs and provided lots of local information to boot.
All in all a gem of a place, you really get to experience the Southern California beach lifestyle in an authentic setting and at a great value. Highly recommended and I'm hoping to be back soon!
