All around fantastic place. Communication was very prompt with Jonathan. Short 20 min ride over from LAX. The house was clean (beds, sheets, towels) and pleasant. The bedrooms, living and dining rooms are spacious and comfortable to hang out in. Outdoor space is nice with a grill, fire pit, big table with umbrella and privacy. We mostly used it for morning coffee.
There are plenty of options for grocery and bar/restaurants in the area. Short drive/rideshare of 10 min or medium walk of 40 min down to the beaches. We would usually catch a ride to the beach one way and walk one way along Rose Ave. Here are some of the spots we hit along the way that we recommend:
Casablanca for Mexican and margaritas
Flake for breakfast burritos
American Beauty for steak or ribs and cocktails
La Fiesta Brava for very casual Mexican
The Firehouse for American diner food. They serve breakfast all day long. Watched football and the US Open here on a Sun.
