A note to prospective guests:
As the TWO PALMS is our family home we rent only to responsible guests who want the best of the Palisades in a quiet, quality environment. Accordingly, when inquiring about our home rental we request that prospective guests PLEASE provide a description of themselves and their travel party such as where you will be visiting from, profession and ages of any children. If you plan to bring your dog note that pet must be FULLY house trained (sorry ~ no cats due to owner allergy). We offer a LIMITED number of short term rentals each year by aligning our travel with guest stays. Please inquire with your prospective dates for booking.
A word about the City of Los Angeles Home-Sharing Ordinance:
The Two Palms is registered with the city of Los Angeles in compliance with all local regulations and requirements for home sharing. Per city ordinance, for stays of 30 DAYS OR LESS there is a 14% transient occupancy tax charged by VRBO and remitted directly to the city of Los Angeles. For stays of 31 days or more there is NO occupancy tax charged as these do not fall under the ‘short term rental’ classification. Please note that the property owner does NOT receive monies for occupancy tax or security deposit which are held and disbursed by VRBO. Per Los Angeles City Home Sharing Code - Two Palms guests will be given a “Code of Conduct” which will include information on safety and security requirements as well as good-neighbor principles. The Home-Sharing Ordinance (CF 14-1635-S2), adopted by the Los Angeles City Council in 2019, restricts short-term rentals in Los Angeles County to 'owner-occupied primary residences only.' This measure aims to address the rental housing shortage, meaning second homes cannot be legally rented for short-term stays in Los Angeles.

We stayed at this amazing house over the December holidays. The listing doesn't do the house justice. It is a dream house. Working with Kathleen was so wonderful and easy; she is so gracious and nice. We hosted friends and family in this house as we were seeing family locally and then going to the Rose Bowl. The location is fantastic. We could walk our dog everywhere; easy access to great restaurants and there is a wonderful nature preserve trail right near the house. Kathleen really provides you with everything you need and more. We like to cook a lot and the kitchen was a dream. We typically rent homes as our son has special needs and the house was wonderful for him. The backyard is magical with the pool, patio furniture, lights and heaters. We can't wait to come back! Thank you Kathleen for a great stay!
We had a 10/10 experience ... Kathleen was super helpful and responsive. The home was absolutely perfect for our family. Highly recommend.
Our family recently spent a week over spring break. The house and pool area were just fantastic. Our kids loved swimming in the pool and walking to the park. Additionally Palisades village was a great place for us to enjoy a movie and some wonderful dinners. Most importantly Kathleen and her family were so kind and responsive to all our questions and concerns. You cannot find a better host! We would definitely go back:).
This is our 3rd time staying at Kathleen's place and again had another amazing stay. Kathleen and her daughter were super responsive to any questions we had. The house was immaculately clean and stocked with lots of food and drinks. We look forward to coming back here again next summer!
This is the best VRBO experience I have had. I have rented homes in Malibu, Miami, Nantucket, Park City, Stowe, and more and they were all very nice homes. The two palms home is above and beyond all of those though as as the hospitiality was outstanding. Kathleen and the team for two palms stocked the fridge will the things we needed including lots of allergen free foods for our son. The communication was excellent from inquiry to checkout. The location of the home in the Huntington neighborhood of Pacific Palisades as good as it gets. Its right across the street the palisades rec center where spent time playing tennis and with your 7 and 2 year old at the playground. Its also about .4 miles from Palisades Village where we walked daily for shopping, dinner, coffee, etc. Everything in this home is well-maintained. The pool and the spa were so much fun for us. I do not have any hesitation referring my most discerning clients or friends to stay here. Its not cheap to stay here but it is worth it. You get what you pay for.
Want to return
We are repeat visitors. Love the house!!
This is our second time staying at this beautiful house. We had such an amazing time, we decided to come back again this year (and plan to come back again)! The house is perfect for our family - has enough bedrooms for our entire extended family, immaculately clean, has a FULLY stocked fridge and pantry, a heated pool and is located in the most perfect location: just across the street is a playground and tennis courts, just a couple min drive to the beach and a 10 minute walk to the Palisades Village for great shopping and eating. Kathleen is also the most gracious host. She makes sure the fridge and pantry is fully stocked with all the food we need for the entire week before we arrive and is extremely quick to reply with any questions we had for her. This place is truly a gem, thank you Kathleen for having us stay in your wonderful home again!
Very organized and luxurious.
My wife, three kids, and my wife's mother had a wonderful stay. The pool was great and the nearby park and recreation center were a hit with the kids. The neighborhood is walkable and of course there is fine weather. Kathleen was an excellent host.
