We have stayed at this home several times and absolutely love the location, cleanliness and responsiveness of the host. This time we noticed that the wifi signal to the TV could use a boost as the TV would lose its connection for as much as 5 minutes at a time - easily solvable. We highly recommend this property and look forward to future visits.

This is such a beautiful and well-designed house with thoughtful touches like coffee pods, a BBQ, and plenty of towels. It doesn’t feel like another cookie-cutter rental, it’s full of authenticity and Playa Vista charm. The rooms are huge, so we had plenty of room to spread out and enjoyed drinking coffee on the patio in the mornings.

We loved this house! The location was perfect, and the street was quiet. The house had modern contemporary finishes and is very clean! The kitchen had all the necessities to make coffee and cook meals with ease. The beds are super comfortable and had black out curtains which made it easy to sleep in. The host was top notch and even got us a mat for in the shower to prevent slipping! She was very responsive when I had a question and upon arrival had a few snacks and coffee pods waiting for us! I would highly recommend this home to rent and will stay here again when visiting family!

Amazing rental!
We had such a great time at this little house. The location is amazing, just off the freeway but extremely quiet neighborhood. The house is roomy and cozy, clean and well laid out. The bedrooms are a great size and the mattresses are comfy. There are 2 toilets and vanity which is convenient with 4 people. The kitchen and dining area is awesome. Could use real glasses, we only found plastic glasses which was a bummer. We will definitely be back!

Great central LA location
Everything that is advertised about the property is correct.
Very clean and updated designer home in a quiet area only 15 min from LAX.
A short walk to some good restaurants as well as a short drive to Marina Del Ray and surrounding areas that are not far from the beach.

Beautiful House in Ideal Location
This house was exactly as shown on the listing and even more beautiful upon arrival. We were greeted with a personalized note and a few treats to enjoy during our stay. The exterior and front yard is very inviting and when you walk in, the house is bright, clean, and wonderfully decorated. Love all of the white and updated design along with the beautiful artwork. The huge kitchen counter and big dining table were nice to use. The two bedrooms are cozy but also filled with light. It was so easy to get in and out of the house (no fuss) and the house is located on a quiet street and is an ideal location near many great shopping centers. We really enjoyed staying in this house and will definitely book here again!

Relaxed modern home
We loved the open concept of this two bedroom home.
We had space to organize all our sons stuff to be moved into college and the laundry room in the house was an extra plus.
There was a cute little private patio for morning coffee and evening relaxing.
The owner responded immediately via text for any of our questions,
The furnishing were clean organic modern & lovely, & we had the driveway to park on.
The location was close to grocery and airport.
