IMPORTANT HOUSE RULES
No gatherings, parties, or loud music are permitted. A $1000 penalty will apply for any violation.
This is a very quiet and sensitive neighborhood, so late-night arrivals or disturbances of any kind are not allowed.
No Smoking anywhere.
We kindly ask all guests to respect our home and community by keeping noise to a minimum at all times.
Pool Heating: If you'd like to enjoy a warm swim or soak, we offer pool heating for an additional $100 per night. If you'd like us to heat the pool before your arrival, just let us know and we'll send someone on our team to do so in the morning (We do charge a $100 preheating charge for this). Please note, the pool can take anywhere from 5-10+ hours to heat up, depending on the outside temperature.
FAQ Why does the price change? Don't worry, it's just our dynamic pricing software working its magic. It adjusts rates based on demand and other factors to make sure you get the best value.
The pool has some leaves and twigs, what can you do about it? Our pool is surrounded by beautiful nature, which can sometimes lead to leaves and twigs ending up in the water. On windy days, there may be more leaves than usual, but we do have a weekly pool cleaning service to keep it in tip-top shape. In the meantime, you're welcome to use the pool net to remove any leaves or twigs you may find.
Do you have enough serving dishes and utensils for big groups? Yes, we have enough utensils for up to 16 guests, so you're all set for a big gathering!
Can we book a 1-night stay? Unfortunately, our minimum stay is 3 nights.
Can we request for a towel change? We don't offer hotel-style amenities, but we do provide one regular towel and one pool towel for each guest for the entire stay. If you need clean towels, you're welcome to use our washing and drying machines.
Do you offer early check-in? It depends on whether there are guests checking out on the day you arrive. If it's possible, there may be additional fees involved.
Do you offer late checkout? It depends on whether there are guests checking in on the day you depart. If it's possible, there may be additional fees involved.
Can you explain the pool heating rates? Sure thing! The pool heating rate is $100 per day. If you're staying for 5 nights, for example, it would be $500. If you want to start heating the pool on the 2nd day, you'll only pay from that day onward. If you'd like us to heat the pool before your arrival, just add an additional $100 to the rate.
Do you offer discounts on pool heating rates? Unfortunately, we don't offer discounts on pool heating rates. Our rates are already lower than most other pool houses, many of which charge between $150-$200 per day, so this is the best price we can offer.
How do I operate the pool? Don't worry, it's super easy! We have access to the pool heating system on our end, so just request if you'd like Pool heated or hot Tub heated and we can turn it on remotely!
Is there a smoking room or is smoking allowed on the property? I'm sorry, but smoking is not allowed anywhere inside or outside the house, including the backyard and pool area. We appreciate your cooperation in keeping our property smoke-free. This is also a fire hazard zone so no fire anywhere outside please.
Please NOTE there are 5 cameras on sight 1. Ring Doorbell facing the entryway 2. Camera facing the driveway 3. Camera above the back entry door facing the pool 4. Camera on the side facing side gate 5. Camera facing the side backyard
These are for safety purposes and only get checked if there is an incidence.
We hope that answers all your questions! Let us know if there's anything else we can help with.

Very cool house! Yes a little dated but it’s great. Could do with some more pots/pans and maybe a new grill. Would be great if there was some basics there too so we didn’t have to purchase every single thing we needed (foil, cling wrap, no dish washing pods, just an extra roll of toilet paper) but other than that it was really cool!

Did not look like the picture shown the pool needs painting all around the pool needs painting the screen on the sliding glass door going to the pool from the living room, does not work right the fan in the kitchen makes a whole lotta noise needs more utensils in the kitchen and large bowl and a whisk for scrambling eggs The washer and dryer works great but had soap all over it. I had to clean it to use it the beds aren’t very comfortable, but I thought there were TVs in all the rooms, but there wasn’t there’s a big lump in the floor from the living room to the kitchen. The dining room was beautiful. We totally enjoyed that with 10 of us there if you fixed a few things that are wrong it would be a wonderful place to stay. it was really nice to be that close to Universal Studios.

We had a wonderful week at this property with our family. The house was very clean, well located—close to groceries, restaurants, and not far from LA’s main attractions. The host was very friendly, with easy communication and quick responses. The only minor remark is that the house could use a few small fixes, but overall, it was a great stay!

Thank you for a wonderful stay! We enjoyed the open layout and easy access to outdoors / pool. Location was great for daily hikes up the hill at the nearby park, just 1.4 miles away. We loved the access to daily great challenging hill walks! Ventura blvd offers some great sushi, boutiques and coffee houses. Don’t miss: Yala coffee, Flask for cocktail fixings or wine for the house or Granville for clean fish or a satisfying burger. I loved the house and the area! Host was communicative and helpful.

Great property, older but very clean, spacious and nicely furnished. Beds were really comfortable. Elevated position with nice views, very private and excellent location. It's a very quiet neighbourhood and the neighbors are very strict about quiet hours. It was perfect for our family. Hosts were very responsive and helpful.

Wonderful views & decor in an older home
We were supposed to stay 4 nights but were told to evacuate for the last 2 nights due to the LA wildfires, and we are waiting for a refund for those 2 nights as we had to pay for extra accommodation. Of course this was unforeseen and no-one’s fault. The host: Brooke from Apollo Getaways was incredibly good with communication. She tried hard to resolve a number of issues (see comments below) and was always courteous and kind.The house: Beautifully decorated with fabulous views in a lovely, quiet, safe area. Very spacious and lovely living and bedrooms. Super comfortable beds with generous linens and towels. The kitchen hasn’t been renovated and needs major upgrades to get it up to standard to match the rest of the house. Not working or missing: No helpful manual or instructions about the house (so we had to keep contacting the host for help and felt bad doing so). No hot water at all in the kitchen. Hot Tub didn’t heat above 83 despite the pool man apparently repairing it (big disappointment for us as this was one reason we chose this house). No pool towels. No teatowels. This feels like a new listing and just needs some attention to detail to make it fabulous. It has so much potential. Despite what was missing we would stay here again and were disappointed our time was cut short (but so thankful to be safe and that the house also was safe)
