Was in town for the memorial of a friend's mom; not the best circumstances to visit the beach. Thankfully, the cottage provided the perfect retreat. Either before or after the day's services, the beach is right there for a walk to clear the head. There are also plenty of spots within walking distance to grab a meal, coffee, etc. The cottage itself is very comfortable, well-appointed, and restful -- there is plenty of space to stretch-out and relax. After a day out and about, the parking space is luxurious! Lynn is a great communicator and very helpful; she made the check in, stay, and check out easy peasy. If you're considering staying here, don't hesitate to do so. It's a great value in a great location with a great host.

My husband and I very much enjoyed our stay at this charming little cottage in Redondo Beach recently! It is well situated near the ocean, has convenient parking right by the unit, the owners have a generous 2pm check in time, there is a nice little electric fire pit with chairs outside the unit, and it’s pretty comfortable. The cottage itself is quite small, but very well organized. There’s a nice big walk in closet that is convenient for putting away clothes and luggage, as well as a small table w chairs for eating breakfast and/or lunch. There’s a fridge, toaster oven, coffee pot, and microwave…not really a kitchen, but it works for doing breakfast in the unit. The heater works great on cold nights, and the bathroom is very nicely laid out with good lighting and storage, nice towels. Soaps are teeny tiny but owners are happy to provide more when asked. Bring your own body lotion! There was a bottle of shampoo in the shower. One thing that needs improving and I believe is already in process is that the carpet in the cottage needs replacing…it’s worn out. Otherwise, it’s really quite charming and works well for one or two people who will spend most of their time sightseeing and doing things around town. We plan to return on future trips to LA!

Proximity to the beach was the best part of staying here.

The cottage was spacious for a single room unit, and the outdoor courtyard was delightful. It was great to have our own parking space, especially in that neighborhood. I loved having the Keurig and coffee pods - it was particularly nice to enjoy an early morning coffee in the courtyard before starting the day. My only comment is that we were initially confused at arrival because the directions were to find a "blue and white cottage". Indeed this cottage is blue and white, but there is another blue and white house just up the way. It might be helpful to state that guests should bypass the cottage that is white with blue trim, and head for the blue cotttage with the white trim and the number 212. We quickly discovered our mistake, so it was not a big deal.

This place was so perfect for my husband and I to stay for the long holiday weekend. It had everything we needed, was so spacious and perfectly located in the downtown Village Riviera area. A block from the beach to take a walk and close to so many places to eat and shop. The checkin process was so simple and the hosts were so friendly and communicative. We will definitely stay here again in the future.

Morning beach walks were wonderful

We had a very enjoyable stay in this near oceanside cozy cottage.

This cottage is an awesome place for a couple to stay for a little beach getaway. Our luggage even got lost and the owner was able to receive it and put it in the cottage while we weree out.

It was such a beautiful little cottage, an easy walk to the beach and an easy walk to great restaurants. The hostess was very nice and responsive. I will likely be a repeat visitor.

Everthing was fine

I've stayed in this cottage 5-6 times, and every time I just hate to leave. All the basics are there: immaculate, superb location (close to beach and walking distance to countless cafes and restaurants); well stocked, charming. But I especially love: a large walk in closet and ability to unpack and really move in; space enough to spread out and do a full work out; an outdoor area great for reading and hanging out; dedicated private parking; beach chairs and an umbrella for enjoying some beach time (they also provide beach towels). It's a great place.

The cottage and the hosts were first rate. Everything was as in the listing, cosy comfortable, clean and convenient to the beach and Riviera Village. We had a few days at the end of a 5 week vacation visiting family in the US. After growing up locally, I moved to Australia 45 years ago and apart from class reunions have spent little time in the area. We could not have wished for a better, quiet, private, cosy cottage. It made sharing my hometown with my husband of 35 years extra special. Thank you to our wonderful hosts.

This cute guest house could not be in a better location. So close to the beach and also Riviera Village. And Lynn and Morris were lovely. Thank you!

This was a great place to stay. An easy walk to the beach. Great restaurants a short walk away too. A fantastic cozy place to stay!

Very peaceful and private

Very peaceful and private

Would recommend adding a grab bar in the shower. Loved this location, missing it already.

Beautiful, quaint cottage near the beach. The host was out of town for most of my stay, but went out of their way to make sure I was able to get checked in without difficulty, I did get to visit with her for a few minutes as I was checking out. Everything was just as described. Perfect for a solo traveler like me, but would also be perfect for a couple. If I have the opportunity to, I will rent again.

Comfortable stay- perfect for 2 (close to beach & restaurants)

Fantastic stay at this cute little place. Everything we needed while visiting family in the area. One and a half blocks from the beach with beach chairs and towels provided. Large closet with lots of storage and hangers. Walking distance to Riviera Village with shops and restaurants. Loved it!

Simple, comfy accommodation in a pleasant quiet neighborhood. Located between the beach and a commercial district that are both easily walkable. We look forward to a return visit.

It is a cozy place to stay. The decor was nice, and really comfortable! Great location! Lynn was real nice and helpful. I would enjoy staying there again when I'm back in town.

The beach cottage is as cute as the pictures show! We loved our stay. This cute couple's retreat is within walking distance of food, shopping, and (best of all) the amazing beach. We'll definitly be back. The surprisingly large closet and bathroom (for the size of the cottage) was great! We watched hummingbirds nectar at the hibiscus as we enjoyed our morning coffee. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to a stay at this amazing rental!

An absolutely adorable cottage in a very convenient and beautiful location. Perfect for my stay to visit my granddaughter. I enjoyed it very much. Owners communicate perfectly.

Very cute back cottage super convenient to the beach and shops in Redondo Beach. Owner was great to communicate with. Would definitely come back!

The Cottage is exactly as advertised. Quiet and quaint village living. Walk to the beach and Riviera Village in S Redondo Beach with great neighborhoods, people, and restaurants. Close to Manhattan Beach for upscale shopping and dining of that is what you are looking for or a nice evening. Lynn and Morris were responsive and have the cottage set up with everything you need.

Very charming, super comfortable bed, decorated perfectly, large fridge, cold A/C, incredible & warm hosts -- will stay here again for sure!

Lovely landing spot, only a couple blocks from the water. Super clean and quiet. Would definitely stay again.

It could not have been better! Close to the beach and a wonderful cottage. Very light and airy- made me happy to be there!

Charming cottage, would definitely recommend. Hosts are super friendly and made our stay such a pleasant experience.

The cottage was perfect for our weekend trip to Redondo Beach! Perfect size for me and my husband! Easy walk to the beach and several fun, good restaurants. The owners were very communicative and easy to work with! We’d stay here again! Thanks!

My daughter and I wanted a beach getaway and this was the perfect location. So relaxing and cozy. Within walking distance of so much and the cottage is furnished with everything you need. We will definitely stay here again! We loved the breakfast burritos at Phanny’s which is just a block away. We made some great memories to take home with us! The hosts were great.
