The first thing I knocked the door I’ve seen host who opened the door and ask me « Who you are ?What are you doing here ?” . So she accepted automatically reservation and she didn’t know I am coming . That’s the first unpleasant thing that happened to me.
Then the most frustrating and annoying thing was that it’s so hot in the house and the temperature never drops below 78-79 degrees even downstairs. ( I am not talking about the room - it was well over 80 degrees constantly)
And there is no AC in the house ( and yes she is listed that ) and you would probably guess “ it’s by the ocean , it should be good , ocean breeze etc …..” That’s what I did too but unfortunately then I made research and specifically this area is hidden from the ocean by Palos Verdes Hills and you don’t get the same breeze as let’s say Redondo Beach . I made experiment and at the same day when it was in that area 85 degrees , at the Redondo Beach was 75! So 10 minutes drive gives you 10 degrees difference !
And also the problem with this room was that it gets sun rays all day long from the morning to sunset and that also makes it so hot .
But other than that everything else was ok .
So I wouldn’t recommend this place in summer ( plus September) unless you really love Sauna .
Winter time should be good tho .
