Rita was amazing with communication and the check in process for my wife and daughter who stayed here for around 12 days. My wife said everything was super clean and such a cute vibe in the cottage. Super close walking distance to beach and places to eat. Highly recommend!

Comfortable cottage in a great location

Lots of light and privacy. On a nice street, close to the beach, shops, etc. The bed and sofa bed were both comfortable and the small kitchen was functional. The laundry room was also handy and well-equipped.

Cozy and convenient

Cozy cottage in very convenient and safe area. A couple of blocks to the pier and beach-great restaurants within walking distance too. My husband and I stayed for two week, we were very comfortable and happy to be able to prepare a few meals in the well appointed kitchen. Highly recommended and hope to return.

Such a Gem!

I loved this place! I felt right at home and had everything that I needed. Bed was very comfortable. The location is so amazing. A 5 minute walk to see one of the most beautiful sunsets. I have more work projects coming up in this area and I am hoping that Rita’s place is available.

Amazing Cottage with great location

My daughter and I spent 2 weeks in this charming cottage in July. It was just what we wanted…quiet, safe neighborhood with easy access to the beach and the strand. The owner was great with her communication. The onsite laundry was wonderful to have. We’d definitely come back. Thank you for the wonderful accommodations, Rita!

Ideal Beach Getaway Cottage

Location is outstanding. 1 block from the beach and Redondo Pier. Perfect cottage for one person. Very clean with private parking spot. Ideal for compact car. Met my needs and beyond. On site laundry and an abundance of local shopping and restaurants close by. Weekly Farmer's Market across the street on Thursdays. Great getaway spot!

Our second time staying at Rita’s cottage was even better than our first. My husband and I felt like we were coming home. Rita’s cottage is very clean and cozy. Ideal for two people. Beautiful and safe neighborhood-two blocks from the ocean. Great restaurants within walking distance. We cannot wait to return.

Wonderful

Had a great three week stay. The cottage was very clean and bright, a short walk to the beach and Redondo Pier. There was ample parking on the street, and groceries, restaurants and other conveniences close by. Rita was a great host and always available if needed. There were laundry facilities on premises. I’m hoping to return again in the future.

Great Location, Great Place!

We came to visit relatives who live in Redondo Beach. This location was perfect for walking to the things we like to do. We were only 1 block from the Pier and all it's restaurants, stores and bars! We love to walk and the walk down to Riviera district with great food, beverage and store spots was 1.5 miles. Hermosa Beach only 2 miles and another 1.5 to Manhattan Beach. The bus also ran to all those location and the pick-up spots were only a half block from the door! The house was great with all the things needed. Best of all the price was worth it!
