Redondo Family Summer Trip

This home was exactly as advertised but more charming in person. Great living spaces, kitchen (even had a kiddy table), two levels, and incredible back yard. 3 different wall units to keep cool for summer trips, which is not common place in this area. Spacious rooms and comfy beds.. Brian - the host - was extremely communicative and very responsive when we had a few minor issues. We stayed here with our two girls (5 and 3 yo) as well as my parents. Was plenty of space for the 6 of us and a great "home base" for our beach vacation visiting family and friends in Redondo. The neighborhood where this home sits is so charming and walkable/short-drivable to all that Redondo and South Bay have to offer. Highly recommend for your next vacation to the area!

Great location and configurable, comfortable and spacious house

Great house with full kitchen set up and room to spread out for our large family. Really private and nice back yard and the flowers were amazing! Would suggest replacing the master bed with a king.

Another great stay in Redondo Beach

This was our third or fourth time staying at this beautiful home. The host family is wonderful--always accessible, but never intrusive. The house is spacious and comfortable, and the yard (with a gas grill, 2 seating areas with outdoor lighting, and hot tub) are perfect for entertaining. The kitchen is well-stocked with every tool you could need and the flow of the house is perfect for family gatherings. The house also has 3 large screen TVs, and a grand piano. There are several grocery stores within a 5-10 minute drive, and there are several restaurants within walking distance. There is also a wonderful ice cream parlor nearby. The neighborhood is a little hilly, but it's a safe, beautiful area for a morning or evening walk. El Retiro Park is within walking distance, and has 2 tennis courts and a shady play area for young children. We've never had any regrets about staying here, and are already looking forward to our next stay.

Perfect home away from home,

We wanted a house near our family and this was perfect. The back yard was our favorite place for relaxing between social events. Only 7 minutes from kids and grandkids.

About the host

Hosted by Brian

We are a family of three. My wife and I have 1 college age daughter living off and on with us. We love to travel. I've lived in the area for nearly 50 years and went to school in Manhattan Beach.

Why they chose this property

We love the location of this property as it has the feel of a small beach town with the beaches close by, bike riding, surfing ... it feels secluded and away from the hustle and bustle of the city yet it's within minutes to all major freeways to where you can enjoy "city life" in Downtown LA, Hollywood, Pasadena ... Museums LACMA, the Getty ... Major shopping at Beverly Hills and the Grove ... And for exploring and nature adventures 2 hours from the Desert and 2 1/2 hours from Skiing at Big Bear.
