Family celebration

The property is wonderful. Well kept, attractive and a fully loaded kitchen. Which is great as we like to cook. The backyard and pool were perfect. The kids loved playing in the water while the adults enjoyed the shaded patio. Beds were comfortable, rooms good sized. It was a lovely place to celebrate with a small group of people. Eugenie was a great host - quick to respond and accommodating. I would absolutely stay there again and recommend the place to anyone.

Charming Home with Backyard Oasis

This is a spotless house with great retro look, it’s everything you could want in a home base. Within walking distance to restaurants and shops, the house also stocks more amenities than you will ever need! Jean is a wonderful warm host who made us feel right at home, she’s very knowledgeable about Long Beach and has all kinds of recommendations for dining, entertainment , etc. The backyard feels very private and is a lovely sanctuary with sparkling pool. We definitely recommend!

Host was wonderful.

We were on the go most of the time so we didn't spend a lot of time at the house. Pool is nice but like the review said not warm yet--we even had wet suits. I'm sure it's amazing once it's warmer. Beds are firm if that's what you like.

Long Beach We'll Be Back

Admittedly we have many people we love in and around Long Beach. We hosted an intimate gathering of 12-15 folks. The Cartagena St location, amenities and 'at home' atmosphere complimented our soiree that allowed all who attended a wonderful time and all who didn't a regret they will not repeat. Thanx to Gene and her crew, we're prepared to reserve again for next year.

Gathering from 3 points

Family funeral gathering with family members traveling from Australia and New Zealand. With all of our different tastes, everyone agreed that this was a charming, good vibes only, type of house with clean lines and quaint pieces that highlighted its midcentury architecture. Loved learning the history of the home and the host was simply lovely. Wish the weather cooperated in order to enjoy the pool but we plan on returning in the summer.

Comfortable, roomy and beautiful

We hada family of five. The living area had lots of room for everyone. We use the backyard a lot, the weather was great. Can't say enough about the swimming pool, which was used a lot and a wonderful patio. It was an oasis. We did a family BBQ, fun day in the backyard. Plenty of beds for everyone plus could sleep more. It was centrally located, restaurant, shopping and groceries was close by. We highly recommended staying at this propert, your family would be happy.

Great Home Base

Owner was super detailed with everything regarding the stay. House was spotless! We wanted to stay off the beaten path of downtown LA. This house was in a great location. Not too far from LA, Disneyland and other cool attractions on the coast. Very close to shopping, restaurants, bars and grocery stores. Came out with the family from Chicago to see Elton’s final concert in the U.S. at Dodger Stadium and spent a week in the LA area for a much needed vacation. This house was a great home base for our family… great memories made here. Would definitely come back.

About the host

Hosted by Eugenie Young

Host profile image
A Philly native, Jean has lived in and around Los Angeles most of her life now.

Jean can give you ideas what to explore and how to best navigate LA's crazy traffic patterns to get there... from the best ocean views in Palos Verdes, the freshest seafood in San Pedro, to the Grammy museum at LA Live or the Getty on the Westside.

A writer by trade, Jean spends most of her time -- well -- writing.

When she's not writing, she likes beach walks, tennis, urban hiking, and exploring the art and architecture of Los Angeles. Especially the many mid-century modern rancho homes built by Cliff May, Edward Killingsworth, and Neutra.

She knows the South Bay, Long Beach, San Pedro and greater Los Angeles like the back of her hand -- so if you want the best Thai in Hollywood, kimchi in K-town, taco truck in Boyle Heights, Ethiopian or Jewish Deli on Fairfax-- she can direct you!

Why they chose this property

Five miles to beaches, 2 miles from LGB airport, 25 minutes to LAX, pool, patio exemplify outdoor living.

What makes this property unique

Walls of glass, sloping ceilings, and mid-century furnishings to match, architect Kenneth Wing and Richard Killingsworth designed this home around a central patio and pool to give a very California feeling of indoor/outdoor living and abundant natural light.
