The space
Large, quiet suite with high speed wifi, smart TV, original artwork, and mini kitchenette of small refrigerator (& freezer), microwave, deluxe K-cup coffee system, dishes and flatware. Seating for two.
Travertine Spa bath with double sinks, large shower with wide overhead and handheld spray, and a whirlpool for two.
The bathroom here was designed by me and renovated with ideas from my travels in Europe and Asia where the bath is revered. Not only as a place to cleanse the body, but also to rejuvenate and recharge the spirit and soul, especially after a long day exploring the city. Step out of the bath into a plush terrycloth robe and slippers.
Grab the oversized beach towels and head down the road to our lovely wide- sanded beaches and the roaring Pacific Ocean.
Extra closet and storage space.

Charming and comfortable with all the amenities.
Just what we needed.
Great little place that's a cozy homey alternative to an everyday hotel room. And the jacuzzi style bathtub and huge double shower was fantastic! Great location as well, easy to get anywhere.
Responsive hostess. Cute and cozy.
Our stay was amazing. Loved the tub. I also loved how she printed out instructions for everything that I had answers for. She gave us a couple eating places that turned out great. Every time we needed help with something or had any questions she responded back in a timely manner.
After years of great VRBO stays, I finally experienced the nightmare stay. My first morning, I took a shower at this VRBO. When I stepped out of the shower, onto the bathroom floor, it had flooded. So much so that it had flowed into the bedroom area. I immediately notified the owner and she arrived quickly. But her arrival quickly turned to accusation. Despite the fact that what she accused me of was ludicrous for a person staying there, was something that her cleaning crew would have done, and was something that a significant construction project in the backyard could have caused, she blamed me. Regardless of the fact that I helped clean up and figure out what may have happened, stayed out of the room all day to allow for workers to fix the issue, carried by valuables with me the entire trip, and washed in the sink when instructed not to use the shower, she told me I was selfish, disrespectful, and didn't care. Add to that that the codes for check in were provided half an hour after check in and that the room was hot and humid, but you were instructed not to use the air conditioner overnight (see other review), I think nightmare sums it up. Her last message to me told me never to contact her again . . . no worries about that! On a positive note, I ended my trip in a great VRBO in Albuquerque where there was no drama!! Check out Los Ranchose De Albuquerque!
The location of this room was terrific, easy to park on the street. Close to everything, and quiet. The room was lovely, and was equipped with complimentary coffee, dishes, small convention oven. The bathroom was fully stocked with anything you need. The outdoor area was a real surprise. We had our own little spot to have our coffee in the morning, surrounded by beautiful greenery. Connie has a lovely property, and you can see that a lot of care and pride is shown. She was also able to provide a beach chair that was very appreciated. Connie is a great host, responds quickly and is available if you need anything. The construction is a non issue, the men working are respectful and we were away all day anyway. Would definitely recommend. Thank you for such a lovely experience.
I was excited to stay in this place. The patio looked great as did the bathroom. Ultimately the air conditioning didn't work and while the host was responsive, she was not solution oriented nor did she apologize for the AC not working or the unit being very warm. The AC in question is a portable unit with a hose that attaches to the wall. It is not central air or a mini split. The fan on the unit ran, but after 5 hours, it never got cold. The host suggested that I keep the door open to air out the unit, but there is no screen on the door and the unit was very warm and stuffy, far past airing out. After notifying the host about the non-working AC on the first night, she offered for me to check out the next morning and refund the balance of my stay, which she did, but not before telling me how generous this was of her. I would have been happy to stay if the AC worked or if there was effort to fix it, or if there was a screen on the door but none of the above were true. The host said many times that the AC was brand new, and didn't know why I was having trouble with it, but regardless of it being new it wasn't blowing cold air. Couple notes: There are french doors without screens, no windows. The yard is under construction. The patio is enclosed by a chain link fence wrapped in bamboo.
Loved the shower! We will definitely be back.
We stayed for one week to attend our son's graduation from Pepperdine Law School.
Thank you Connie for a wonderful stay in your warm and well apportioned VRBO. The room was exactly as advertised; lovely bed, great bathroom, wonderful and appreciated robes, coffee, refrig, --everything!! We really loved the privacy and yet in a wonderful, beautiful neighborhood with ample parking . Connie made sure we had privacy, easy entry, and just a pretty environment! We would recommend this space to couples or singles! The amenties are lovely. We will consider this properity when we vist our son again!! Thank you Connie.
This was about as close to being on your own as a shared space rental gets — we scarcely heard anything (outside of the dog barking occasionally, which is fine, it’s a dog, they bark) and the private entrance makes it feel very much like your own space. It’s a small space that you probably won’t spend all day in, but that hardly seems to be the point — it’s a great place to crash at the end of the day and start fresh in the morning. We rented a car so the proximity to Santa Monica was great, plus we were able to comfortably drive to and from Malibu, Santa Barbara, and all over downtown LA. Only tiny complaint would be that the whirlpool is an emphasis on the listing and it never had enough hot water to quite fill it at temperature… but maybe I just like it too hot. Otherwise great stay with a communicative host and would gladly come back again.
Just what I needed. A comfortable, impeccable, quiet place to rest my weary bones. Everything was just perfect!
A beautiful property with a bonus private garden to enjoy the warm California weather. Deep spa tub and expansive shower! All the amenities of home with a gracious host!
This stay was so beautiful! I felt so pampered while here, and Connie was so kind and considerate. Unfortunately we weren’t able to enjoy all the amenities due to unforeseen circumstances on our part, but we hope to come back again.
This property was within walking distance of where my daughter and her family live, so it was perfect! The property was spacious, comfortable, private and quiet. I would definitely stay there again.
Connie has created a charming getaway in a great location in Mar Vista, near to countless sites and great restaurants in L.A. Super clean and comfy with a relaxing outdoor seating area and a spa-like bathroom. Would highly recommend.
The location and property were perfect for us. Mostly what we required was a place to lay our heads at night. It was comfortable and welcoming.
We had a fabulous stay- thank you!
Owner is in your business 24/7. She even watched my park on the street in front of her home and then messaged me to “ move my car out of her driveway because she had a friend coming over and wanted to park her car there. I WAS PARKED ON THE STREET IN FRONT OF THE HOME! Her dogs start barking at 7:00am and bark and fight in her unit ALL DAY! The jacuzzi tub is old, black and covered in white soap scum. Owner did not send me the entry codes at check in time because “you are not arriving until later so I thought that there was no hurry”. Then wanted me to let her know when I left so the unit could be cleaned. I expect to have the unit from check in until check out. We have stayed at many, many VRBO homes across the country, this was the worst! Owner had every excuse in the world for her rudeness including and then call me crazy! WE DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PROPERTY!
