We are a family of 3 (2 adults and a 5 year old) on vacation and we spent 4 days in this villa.
Pros:
1. Great location and ocean view. We were right on the beachfront with close access to supermarket and several stores and 5-10 drive to many restaurants and tourist attractions.
2. The apt itself was very spacious with great light.
3. Optional parking space that you can pay $10/day, though can only fit small car.
Cons:
1. Only get 1 set of keys. You need a key to enter AND leave the apt. The max occupancy is 6 people for this unit. I don't know how one would coordinate if there are so many people.
2. Not a very child friendly apt. The house has hardwood floors and thin walls. We received multiple complaints about the amount of noise we were making which has never happened in our numerous experiences traveling through hotels and Airbnb homes.
3. The house rules are very very strict. Please read them carefully if you plan to book.
4. Check in time is supposed to be 3pm. I had to call the host twice to get the key code to enter. It was finally emailed to me at 3:10pm because the cleaners were not ready yet.
5. Water pressure very low in shower and takes 5-10min for hot water to come.
Overall it was a decent experience but probably won't book the same place again if we are in Long Beach. Just too many restrictions.
