Sweet spot by the beach - vintage charm, modern amenities
My sister and I took my three kids to LA for fall break. We did all the usual things and this was a perfect home base. The dog beach was charming and the 2nd Street food and retail scene had it all. Loved the house. This is nerdy, but anything with a mortise lock has my heart.

Super cute 1930’s style home in nice neighbourhood :)
The house was very cute and clean. Host was awesome and easy to get ahold of and very very friendly. Master bed was the most comfortable bed we’ve ever slept in. Lots of restaurants in the area and the beach is half a block away. The Aquarium of the Pacific is a 10 min drive away and Disneyland half an hour.. If you want somewhere quaint and interesting and safe … this is a great VRBO. We didn’t know it was just the downstairs so that was just a little surprise, but still fine :) Wonderful host ! We would recommend ! From. Canada !!

Perfect beach side retreat
My family and I had the perfect weekend getaway at Casa de las Palmas! 1/2 block from the beach in a quiet neighborhood. Home was picturesque with everything we needed. Beach cruisers were available with air pump, bike lock, and helmets. Boogie boards and all the beach necessities were provided! Everyone absolutely enjoyed their stay! I highly recommend for families or a couples getaway.

My family and I had a wonderful stay here at the Casa. The home was beautiful, clean and so well stocked with the things you would need for an stress-less vacation, weekend getaway, etc. My bed was so comfortable, I slept wonderfully and that is something I value highly. There were local restaurants in walking distance and many others a short drive away. Brad checked in on us and was very responsive to any text sent. Overall, it was a wonderful experience!!!

Exactly as advertised- great place and fun location
Charming little place on a relatively quiet street just a few minutes walk from a great public beach. We would definitely stay again in the future. Everyone loved the fountains and the breakfast nook, and the beach chairs and beach towels were appreciated. Had some minor mechanical issues with some things but the fantastic property manager was instantaneous on the solutions and was incredible to work with.

It was a great neighborhood with easy access to the beach. The only issue was with parking but that has to do with the entire area. Those roads on trash days are a disaster. The outdoor shower was a hit with the kids!
