The property was spacious and had a great outdoor area with a pool and a spa. This was perfect for a family stay.

Great Location

We had a lovely time with family here, There was an issue with the oven not heating correctly when we contacted the owner they provided us with an small tabletop oven which was sufficient for our needs.The property could benefit from some TLC but nothing that would affect any stay here. The location was ideal its a lovely safe neighbourhood, close to beaches and shopping.I would recommend a stay here.

Great Location, Poor Condition

I'll summarizes what we encountered as best as possible to provide a true report of the condition and usability: Pros: * The house was located in a nice neighborhood with Redondo Beach and Redondo Pier nearby. * Layout of the house is good, with 2 bedrooms upstairs and 2 downstairs, though one of the downstairs bedrooms was a pass-thru room to the laundry. Cons: most everything else. * The condition of the house was so poor that we departed one-day early. * Beds were made and things looked tidy at first, but otherwise it didn't look very or feel clean. * Pillows and mattress covers are badly stained, including the ones on at least one bed on arrival. * Dirty light switches, dirty windows and counters in the kitchen. * Floors didn't appear vacuumed or cleaned in a long time with hair and dust balls around/under beds and furniture. * MOLD on nearly every window sill and tracks, especially in the downstairs bedroom which we found after lifting the blinds. I say found, because 3 of our 5 family members started coughing pretty bad the day after we arrived and it lingered until the evening after we left, which was a day early. We had windows cracked every night just to try and air out the house a bit. * The stove and oven did not function properly, which a previous guest noted that one side didn't work back in the fall, but we couldn't get either side to work, only a couple of the stove top burners. Many more negatives but review length is capped. Would NOT stay again!

Thanksgiving stay

We stayed here for Thanksgiving...however, ther was a double oven...the large side didn't work. We ended up squeezing our turkey into the small little oven, then had to bake all the side dishes one at a time after the turkey. The owner dropped a nice gift card to make up for the inconvenience. They couldn't get a repairman to respond because of the holiday. The hot tub was Luke warm when we arrived. The digital displays were clouded over so you couldn't read them . So, figuring out how to increase temp was impossible. So, we didn't use it. They were missing some of the basics in the kitchen. Couldn't find a can opener that worked. Some of the cupboard doors were jacked up and wouldn't close...we had a toddler so it was a bit bothersome. The backyard was lovely. The owners communicated well. The house overall was comfortable and had some great potential...but needed touchup paint indoors to make it look fresh.
