    This was a super cute cottage close to the beach, marina, main street and shopping on second street. The owners were super friendly and informative. The area has a quiet residential feel that is close to things to do, but also quiet enough to be a real get-away.

    Seal Beach is truly a hidden gem! And Pineapple Cottage is an amazing place to stay! So welcoming! Meticulously maintained and charming, very thoughtfully decorated! The hosts were gracious and attentive and clearly care about the property and their guests, offering suggestions for things to do and restaurants in the area. We will definitely stay there again when visiting the LA area!

    We had a wonderful stay in Seal Beach and couldn’t have been happier with our experience. The host was incredibly accommodating, professional, and genuinely friendly throughout our visit. Communication was excellent—the host was always responsive, helpful, and quick to answer any questions we had. Their attention to detail and commitment to making our stay comfortable truly stood out. We felt welcomed from the moment we arrived and would gladly stay here again. Highly recommended

    Walking into the cottage was like walking into a beloved space with touches of Hawaii in each room. Spotless. Beautiful vintage furniture, personal glimpses of lives well lived. The Beach was so accessible as was the quaint downtown shopping and dining area. Seemed to be a popular area, well policed and safe. All you need is within walking distance and when your only daughter is just 2 blocks away with her family in another cottage it doesn’t get much better. Our host is precious and nearby and so helpful….I use the word “is” because we hope to return soon. You will be pleased

The hosts are very accommodating and friendly, and they’ve curated a beautiful home. We were very comfortable.

    As a family of four (2 adults and 2 under the age of four) we thought this place suitted us well for our 5 day stay. It was a small space but we were totally fine. Hardest part was having the youngest sleep in the living room when I tried to get things during her naps and early rest.Location is great! We walked to the beach every day. Easy drive to Knotts Berry Farm! The hosts were very helpful and easy to communicate with. They definitely want to make sure everyone enjoys their stay in Seal Beach!

    Staying at the pineapple cottage was an absolute wonderful experience! The owners of the cottage were always accessible and communication was superb! Starting from a few days out, they communicated with us on how to easily check in and procedures for our stay. Super friendly and hospitable! The cottage itself was perfect for our small family. We were only there for a few days for my son‘s baseball tournament But we wanted to enjoy the surrounding area since I grew up there. The cottage is literally 20 feet from the sand. You can jump on the boardwalk and walk up to Main Street in less than 10 minutes. Main Street has all of the things that you’ll need, great restaurants, great shopping! Disneyland is a short 20 minute drive, Queen Mary is about 20 minutes away, several other options available. Huntington Beach and Sunset Beach are all a less than 20 minute drive as well! Will definitely be looking to stay here again when we come back next year! Thank you so much for such a charming and quaint place for our trip!

    The cottage was charming and comfortable, and a half block to the sand. In the evenings, a huge and cozy fireplace filled the living room with warmth and ambience.

    Once inside this clean and cozy space, it was like we stepped back to another time - the 30s or 40s. I kept hoping to see Benny Goodman, Bing Crosby or maybe Frank Sinatra walk by and say hello. This is a lovely little cottage with its centerpiece fireplace perfect for two visiting a splendid part of California with great food, shopping, and the sea nearby. We can give it our best recommendation and will stay again. Julia and Bob, Manhattan, KS
