About this cottage rental

City of Pasadena Short Term Rental Permit No.: SRH2018-00116

Nestled in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains is a tropical oasis awaiting your arrival. Why spend hours flying to Hawaii when you can enjoy tropical South Seas ambiance in Pasadena. Located in Historic Highlands, a quiet Pasadena residential neighborhood two miles north of downtown Pasadena, this studio/loft has lots of charm and character. The neighborhood is great for walking with beautiful tree lined streets. The rental comes complete with exclusive use of outdoor dining area, swimming pool (unheated), fire ring, and heated spa.

Pasadena, located 9 miles north of downtown Los Angeles, is a vibrant city, rich in history and culture, and home to the world famous New Year’s Day Tournament of Roses. Average year round temperature is 76 F daytime to 54 F nighttime. You are minutes away from many sports and recreation areas, and 30 to 60 minutes from all the major Los Angeles attractions.

Visiting from the Midwest and found this gem! The place was amazing! Parking was easy, the air conditioning worked well. The best part was the out door amenities. The pool, hot tub, tables, and best of all ambiance were just perfect. I will be coming back again for my next trip. The place was so perfect that we did not want to leave, just spend time in yard. This was my first time out there, thank you again so much for the great memories!

We spent a few very busy days in LA county sightseeing and college touring so it was perfect to return to this property in the afternoon to relax and recharge. It’s very close to 210 freeway yet it’s so quiet!

This awesome property really made for a great Pasadena visit. The unit is equipped smartly and completely. Comfortable beds and living room seating. Loved being able to gate ourselves off and enjoy the wonderful pool and pool deck. Located in a great neighborhood and the host (Jama) is very nice. Evenings on the pool deck looking at the mountains was really enjoyable.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this incredible vacation rental in Pasadena, and I cannot recommend it enough! The place has the best collection of tikis and Polynesian art I've ever seen, creating a wonderfully unique and tropical atmosphere. The property is beautifully appointed, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Plenty of privacy, and the rental is dog-friendly, which was a huge plus for me and my little dog. Jama, the host, was exceptionally helpful and hospitable, always available to ensure we had everything we needed. One of the highlights for me was working remotely by the pool. The Internet connection was super-fast, making it an ideal spot for a weekday getaway. It's not often you find a place where you can work poolside without any connectivity issues! The bed was extremely comfortable, and the quiet, safe neighborhood allowed me to sleep better than I do at home. Waking up refreshed each morning was such a treat. For foodies, there are numerous fantastic dining options nearby. My new favorite breakfast spot on Lake Street is just a short distance away. Additionally, Tacos 210, the best taco truck I've encountered, offers a variety of delicious vegetarian choices. Overall, this vacation rental exceeded all my expectations. I look forward to staying here again soon. If you're considering a trip to Pasadena, I highly recommend booking this Polynesian paradise!

Here’s a polished version of your VRBO review for the property you stayed at in Pasadena, CA: We recently enjoyed a delightful stay at the "Polynesian Paradise" in Pasadena, and we were thoroughly impressed by the neighborhood—it felt incredibly safe and welcoming. Although it was a bit too chilly for swimming, we made the most of the hot tub, indulging in its warmth at every opportunity. The property itself felt like a mini Disneyland, complete with beautiful colored lights and tiki torches both inside and out, creating a truly magical tiki bar paradise. It was like having our own little tropical retreat! While we were busy exploring nearby attractions like the Huntington Museum and Gardens, Descanso Garden, the Pacific Asian Art Museum, and the Norton Simon Museum, our time at the property was so relaxing that we wished we had booked an extra day just to soak in the ambiance a bit more. If you're looking for a unique and enchanting getaway, this "Polynesian Paradise" offers an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended for a serene and visually stunning escape!
