About this house rental
Pour yourself a drink from the bar, settle into the Jacuzzi and you’ll find yourself overlooking the twinkling lights of LA. In a peaceful spot in the hills, you'll be tucked away from the traffic, but just a short drive from Beverly Hills, Hollywood, the Getty Museum and so much more. There's a tropical feel to this Spanish-style villa, thanks to the huge pool surrounded by towering palm trees. Pool heat is available upon request. The jacuzzi complimentary remains heated. As for Inside, it's an opulent space with a sweeping staircase, plenty of luxurious soft furnishings and elegant styling. Two of the bedrooms open to a private balcony with views across the valley and the city – the dream spot for a morning cup of coffee. There's a fabulous kitchen with Wolf ovens and range and everything you could need to cook at home, or grill up a feast on the gas barbecue or Kamado smoker outside. Meanwhile, children (and the young at heart) will be kept busy playing tennis or basketball on your private court, or enjoying games in the home's playful surf shack.

The backyard is amazing and completely conducive for a great family gathering.

This home is the ultimate vacation home! There isn't a single thing that could have been better or was missing. The house is clean and spotless. Kitchen appliances and accessories are top notch and plentiful. The owners are great communicators. It was a very nice surprise to find a chilled bottle of champagne awaiting us on arrival; and the fresh fruit was also much appreciated.
I could go on and on about all of the entertaining options in the house - TVs, piano, guitar, albums/turntable, fun center/den to name a few; but what truly makes this house a gem is it's backyard. The spectacular view alone makes it special. The large swimming pool and hot tub [with TV] are reason enough to book this place. Much like in the house, everything has been thought of outside as well - grill, smoker, fire pit, and even a tap next to the hot tub! There are multiple seating, eating, and lounging areas complete with chandelier! The outdoor lighting and landscaping is exceptional! It also has a pickleball/volleyball/badminton court.
There is so much to do and enjoy at the house, but it's location is also quite awesome for seeing everything LA has to offer. Situated within a couple minutes of the 405, yet quite secluded on the hills at the end of a cul-de-sac, it is the ideal spot for whatever you want to do.
Though there was only my wife, 18 year old son, and me staying here, there is more than enough room for another family or two to thoroughly enjoy this place. Simply awesome!

The house was the perfect size for our family of 7 (all adults). Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for all of us, with enough space to provide privacy. The barkyard has a fantastic layout. Again with a lot of space to relax and unwind.
The location is excellent. We were surprised because it looked a little remote on Google maps. But its just a 10 minute drive to Ventura Blvd, with so many places to eat/shop/explore.
Couldnt be happier with our host. Excellent communication thoughout our stay.
We would definitely vacation here again.

Our family of ten had a wonderful time at the villa ! We all love the backyard with fabulous view daytime and nighttime (with lighted tree and chandelier)! We enjoyed all the outdoor amenities: swimming in the pool, soaking in the hot tub while watching outdoor tv, play ping pong, pickleball or just relax in the hammock or lounge in the shade !
Chris, the host was so nice to work with ! He has fresh flowers to welcome us and communicate with us as needed ! When he knew we have a wheelchair delivered for us, he put up a ramp to make easy access to the backyard !! That’s great human kindness ! Hope we can enjoy it some time in the future !

Our group consisted of 2 families with 5 young kids. The bedroom layout worked well for us with a master on the main and a master on the second level. The kids loved the outdoor grounds, the pool, hot tub and especially the garage jungle room. They played in there for hours every evening. The view of the valley from the backyard is magical. You feel removed from the hustle and bustle yet you can drive everywhere. We really liked the Noah's Ark exhibit at the Skirball and the grounds of the Getty museum. We also did an escape room and a cat cafe, both on Sepulveda Blvd. Last but not least, the hosts are very responsive and extremely friendly. We were delighted with our trip. Thanks Nancy and Chris!!

My family and I had a wonderful stay over the holidays. Chris was very responsive and proactively checked in to make sure we were having an enjoyable stay. When we had a question Chris was very quick to respond. The home was very clean and equipped with anything you could need. The outdoors is a paradise and the neighborhood is very quiet. The location is easy access to most sites in Los Angeles.
We highly recommend!

We were in LA on a family vacation with 7 of us. The house is in a great quiet neighborhood with a great view in the back yard. Perfect place to stay.

We enjoyed a great holiday staying in this superb villa. It is in a really good location with excellent views from the rear of the property. The villa was clean and well presented and communication with the helpful host was easy and reliable. We were very sorry to leave and would definitely stay there again if we had the opportunity. Highly recommended!

This place definitely was located perfectly for our first family trip to LA. The views from the back yard were unbelievable!! The host communication was top notch.

I traveled to Los Angeles with family (total 6 adults) and am so glad we chose this home - it was perfect! We spent several days sightseeing and everything was just a short drive away (particularly, very near the Getty Center!). The highlight, though, was the backyard living - and we chose to spend more than half of our days relaxing around the pool, enjoying the BBQ area and the fire pit. The outdoor lights, including the chandelier over the dining table, are magical. And the nighttime view over the city lights of LA is an experience you and your family will never forget!

Perfect location and house for our extended family Thanksgiving

Even with a simple back lawn this property would be breath-taking, but it provides so much more: beautiful flower beds, many inviting nooks with comfortable seating a round table seating eight, beautiful night lighting, sun and shade , places to be active and places to just sit back. Our family reunion here was a fantastic success.

This place was absolutely perfect! The backyard is a paradise and the location of the home is central to so many nearby attractions (Although, we hardly felt the need to leave this haven). The house itself was clean, spacious, and comfortable. Chris, the host, was so warm, responsive, and accommodating throughout our entire stay. He made the experience that much better. Don’t hesitate to book this oasis. You will not regret it! We hope to return in the future. A huge thank you to Chris and his family for sharing their beautiful home with us. This was the ideal family getaway as we made precious memories there to last a lifetime!

We thoroughly enjoyed our week in California. The home was close to the airport, Venice Beach, Santa Monica Piet and multiple “must do” sightseeing opportunities. A quick 15 minute drive to Universal. Plus restaurants and grocery stores within a couple of miles. Fully stocked kitchen from a wok to a waffle maker. Extra towels and pillows were nice to have. The view from the back yard was unreal- hot tub was used nightly as well as the basketball court. Great for teens. Ate outside under the chandelier and it was just perfect and so relaxing. The communication with the owners was ideal. I had many questions and they never hesitated with a quick response. I highly recommend this home and hope to return one day.

Lovely property. Pool and outdoor space is exceptional with a great view. Loads of space and very comfy. Feels really homely too.Good location, safe and pretty neighbourhood. Easy drive to/from airport. Journey to downtown and disney can take a while due to traffic but santa monica, Malibu, studio city and plenty besides is an easy drive.Chris was a great host, good tips and easy to contact.

We just got back from a 1-week, 3-generation 10-person summer family reunion and had the great pleasure of staying at this property. The absolute best part of the stay was the outdoor living area in the backyard - we had so much fun that we often did not have any desire to leave the house! The heated (83 degrees) pool, hot tub, pickle-ball court, ping-pong table, and outdoor grill was put to heavy use by the kids and adults alike. There is also a Traeger smoker, that we unfortunately didn't have time to try out. The hilltop sunset views are gorgeous and it was really special to hang out around the gas fire pit in the late evenings, drinking wine and beer after a day of sight-seeing. The house itself is located in a quiet high-end neighborhood where houses are valued at around $2M. The kitchen was well-equipped and there were even many food items/spices in the pantry for our use, unlike many other VRBO rentals. We also enjoyed playing the piano in the music room.Chris was an excellent host - very responsive throughout the entire process. He even purchased an outdoor ping-pong table, when I explained that my father, a ping-pong fanatic, really enjoyed playing with his grandkids! We did have a minor issue with the sink during our stay, but he took care of things promptly. In summary, a great home base for the LA area and one of the best VRBO pools we have ever experienced!

Chris was very communicative. He made sure we had everything we needed. 5 moms and 5 teenage daughters stayed and there was space for everyone. The location can’t be beat. Close to everything we wanted to do and we always seemed to be going against the crazy traffic.
