Take me back already! What a beautiful location, home and host! Mel was always available if needed while we were visiting their beach house. The location is superb! A quick $5 Uber ride to Santa Monica pier or Venice Beach, $15 ride to Hollywood/Downtown LA and about $10 to LAX.

Plenty of things to see and do around the area with a little exploring. There is a 7/11 store only a few blocks away for late-night snacks, and the location has a very low amount of traffic so you can sleep soundly with the windows open at night. Cable/Wifi throughout the house, easy to use pull-out bed in the living room and an additional private bedroom. Although we did not use the backyard, it is even pretty in person which is hard to believe from the amazing photos posted.

I would highly recommend this unique cottage to anyone wanting to visit the LA area w/o the LA noise.
