Hi. My group of older and younger relatives stayed here and loved the pool, location, and general charm of the place. It is a home, not just a rental. The bikes we so handy, plus all the local suggestions. The kitchen is a bit cramped but well-stocked with gear for those who cook. Magnolia and Francisco were wonderful property managers and the house was spotless. Beds were comfy and owners very accommodating. The pool and hot tub were used daily by everyone. Thanks for a fantastic stay!!

Beautiful home within walking distance of beach and downtown Manhattan Beach shops and restaurants. Multi-level spa and pool, gorgeously landscaped, with plenty of outdoor furniture that turned the backyard into one big living area. Kids (ages 2 and 4) loved swimming in the pool daily. Adults could walk to the beach (as long as you're not lugging a playpen). Gracious hosts have thought of everything, including a notebook with recommendations for places to eat. We enjoyed Lemonades, Pages bookstore, and the wood-fired pizza delivered to the door. Highly recommended.

I've stayed in several properties throughout Los Angeles County and I have no hesitation in recommending this property, particularly if you have children. It truly was the best experience I've had in renting a property - both the property itself as well as in dealing with its owners, Steve & Lynn. The house itself was large enough for our family of 4, but was not ostentatious in nature (which we wanted to avoid). Steve and Lynn have done an amazing job in making this house a fun, comfortable, welcoming and relaxing retreat. Everything is there for you - a lovely pool & jacuzzi, 3 large bedrooms, a great living room with a huge flat-screen tv and media center, etc., etc. You really don't have to leave the house to have a wonderful vacation, but if you do, you'll find a great, uncrowded beach just a 5 minute walk away along with all of the restaurants and bars that Manhattan Beach has to offer. The best part, though, was dealing with Steve and Lynn, who were incredibly helpful and always available to answer any questions. A big thanks for Steve & Lynn for letting us rent your home and helping in my effort to convince my family that we should all move to Manhattan Beach in the immediate future!!
