This Bungalow on Havenhurst is truly lovely. Not only is it beautifully maintained and in a fabulous neighborhood, Joe is an excellent host. He handled all of our questions promptly and thoughtfully (including weird ones, thank you!). The 5 of us (our 79 year old mother, two 17 year olds and two 50 somethings) had a enough space to share dinners, wine and root beer floats while maintaining privacy in a warm and comfortable space. The thrift shops on Melrose and Santa Monica had great selections and provided a great afternoon of shpping, with our best deals coming from Out of the Closet right around the corner. My only regret is that we were not able to extend our stay! This will be our first choice for future stays in LA. Thank you!

If you are looking for a quiet, comfortable hideaway in West Hollywood that is convenient to everything, this is it!! The bungalow (#2) was a great base for exploring West Hollywood, Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, and much more. The two bedrooms are comfortable and in the back, so they are very quiet. A deck off the master bedroom is a great place for meals or a relaxing afternoon read! A spacious and well equipped kitchen is perfect for snacks or meals and is complemented by the BBQ. A spacious dining room and living room provided for relaxing meals at home and some down time after a long day of sightseeing. However, if you prefer dining out or some late night entertainment, you are in luck. West Hollywood is a treasure trove of cafes and clubs, all within walking distance. Street parking was no problem, even with street cleaning rules. The real selling point though is the “walkability” of this bungalow. Whether it’s for a stroll through the lovely neighborhood or to access shopping, dining, or entertainment. We could go on and on, but just be sure this is one of the best vacation rentals in the West Hollywood area. If you get the chance to visit don’t pass it up!! The owner, Joe, is very accommodating, helpful and pleasant. This is a definite 5-star rental!!!!
Owner response:Dana- thank you so much for your wonderful comments. I'm so happy the two of you enjoyed your stay- and enjoyed the great- humid free - weather. :) Please come back soon! Joe

Have stayed here twice. Have stayed in VRBO properties all over the world and can honestly say Joe is the best landlord. The bungalow is so convenient to restaurants and easy to walk anywhere. Walked to Whole Foods every morning for fresh baked goodies. Kitchen is well equiped. Beds are very comfortable. Neighborhood very safe. Cannot say enough good comments about this property. Special treat are the fresh oranges from the tree in the back yard.
Owner response:Nancy, that's so sweet. Thanks for the great review. It's always a pleasure having you! I hope you can come back soon.

At an auction, my wife and I bid on, and won, a one week stay in the Bungalows. (That's the "won"). Though we never redeemed our prize within the first year per the terms of the prize, I finally had a chance to visit West Hollywood with an old friend to see a concert at The Greek. Joe was very generous in allowing us to redeem the prize and stay in Bungalow One (the "One" of the situation). What we won was a fantastically pleasant surprise - emphasis on "fantastic" and "pleasant". The bungalows are so convenient to the Burbank Airport, The Greek, walking distance to restaurants and shops and an easy drive to all that Hollywood has to offer, that we were able to enjoy so much more than our 30 hours in L.A. would otherwise allow. Just so you know - the Mondrian and The Grafton hotels are a few blocks away. The bungalows are fastidiously maintained with every comfort. The on-line photos cannot impart the "chi" of this adorable West Hollywood vintage bungalow or the charm created by the proprietor. The residential location provided only quiet and solitude which one could enjoy with a glass of wine or cup of coffee on the back patio off of the bedroom - with mature landscaping of palms and citrus, ferns and flowers. The beds and bedding are "guest-room" quality and invited a nap with the windows open to enjoy the perfect breeze without any disturbance from noise or neighborly activity. The layout is roomy and the bedrooms and living area are separated by a long hallway so guests can easily stay out of each other's way (or sight). Don't fear the street parking - where there is plenty, the residential location - which is quiet, safe, and sedate, or the owner-managed aspect - which is as attentive and well orchestrated as you will need - Joe was accessible to immediately respond to a high-maintenance guest like me. Need I rant and rave any more? Do yourself a favor and book this bungalow now. Last minute reservations, by the way, aren't always easy to come by at the Havenhurst Bungalows.
Owner response:I'm glad you enjoyed your stay, Tod and appreciate your thoughtful comments. Hope to see you back in Los Angeles soon

My daughter and I stayed at Havenhurst for 8 days in Aug 2010. I was in town to attend a seminar with my daughter, who lives in a teeny apartment about seven miles east of the rental. Wonderful amenities. This home is marvelous and so much more than we expected. The house is clean, well stocked and comfortable. We had space needed to work and relax, enjoyed the A/C and cable TV, and had the option to cook for ourselves, order in, or walk down the street. Other than a second bath, there was not one item we didn't have, Joe has thought of everything needed to make you feel at home. Needless to say I will be looking at the Havenhurst for future trips to LA.
Owner response:Kathy- thanks so much for your review. I appreciate your feedback since you have several Vacation Rentals as well. Hope you stay with us again once your daughter is situated.

LA has some great hotels but check availablity at the Havenhurst before you book anything. I have stayed here on numerous occasions. You are right in the middle of everything, but on a quiet street. Can walk to great restaurants (Don't miss Marix or Sur or the Abbey on Sunday afternoons) and there are a couple of great markets a few blocks away. There is a full kitchen, two bedrooms and a great living and dining room to entertain friends. The place is just beautiful, the yard is immaculate and the location can't be beat. The owners can arrange to have anything you need waiting for you and can help you with great tips and inside info on events and attractions in the city. Best of all, it is really such a great deal. Besides being less expensive than area hotels, you don't have the parking fees, the constant tipping of valets and concierges, and no constant noise in the hall. Havenhurst is like being in a penthouse suite without the hassle...or the costs. Can't wait to come back. Thanks for always being the perfect host!
Owner response:John, I appreciate your great comments. I'm glad you've been able to experience the place and the area as a business traveler and a vacationer. Hope to see you back again.

We all had such a great time and were thrilled with our accommodations. Everything was so comfortable and well appointed. Nicely decorated and so many nice touches. Everything was in perfect condition and very clean. The beds were very comfortable and we had plenty of blankets and comforters. Couldn't have been nicer. The kitchens were both so well equipped that we were able to prepare our Thanksgiving dinner for 11 people. Thanks you also for the nice bottles of wine - much appreciated and we were also so happy to see fresh flowers as well. Both of our families kept remarking on how nice everything was. We loved the West Hollywood neighborhood - so quiet, yet easy walking distance to Santa Monica Blvd. We made many trips to Whole Foods and Ralph's - both within easy driving distance. We even did take out the first night from Marco's down the street.

My work colleague and I stayed at the Havenhurst for ten nights and were extremely happy with the entire process. Joe was very helpful from booking until we left - when he returned our deposit in full very swiftly - and the bungalow itself was built in a lovely area, clean, and well presented. It was more than our expectations given the cheap price. I would strongly recommend the Havenhurst, and Joe, to anyone interested in staying in West Hollywood for any reason for whatever period of time. A lovely, all-round experience.
Owner response:Thanks, George. Hope to see you soon!
