'Beautifully furnished home and ideal location. We hit Rodeo Drive to the Fashion District and everything in between and only used a 1/2 tank of gas! Very comfortable environment, with all the amenities we needed in a classic-style home. We'll be back.'

Tressa, this house was an absolutely incredible place to stay. The street was easy to find yet afforded so much nearby. I've recommended this property to so many people already as we had such a wonderful time! It's walking distance to Melrose and Santa Monica Blvd. It's driving distance to so many fun LA hang outs. Perfect place to stay for a family looking for a sense of home while away. Will definitely come back to stay!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

The 4 of us stayed at my L.A home last November. It was our 1st time renting a house and also our 1st time in L.A. The house was really clean and had everything as described on the web site. It is kind of a town house and having really thin common walls with the neighboring house we could hear the kids running around. The location is perfect, it is about 15-20 minutes walking distance from Hollywood walk of fame and all the tours. We loved our stay and recommend my L.A home to everybody.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, pet owners, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with young children, girls getaway, tourists without a car.

We rented this side of the duplex for three days in April, 2012. First, let me say that the house is exquisitely decorated and well appointed with everything a traveler would need and more (full kitchen amenities are included). Being a former Angeleno, I wanted to stay in a centrally located spot where everything was pretty close. We couldn't have done better than this home. Parking is easy, steps from Melrose shopping and an easy walk to Hollywood. Trader Joe's is just a few blocks away. Would definitely consider staying here again on my next trip to LA.Recommended for: Sightseeing, romantic getaway, age 55+, girls getaway, adventure seekers.

My husband and I were very comfortable staying in Treesa's house - it is charming, comfortable and lacks for nothing. Treesa has thought of everything a traveler would want and need to feel at home and she has provided it. The location seems ideal for any travelers to the LA area. We prefer to stay in a central area where we can walk or take a cab where we want to go. I have stayed in quite a few vacation rentals and this is on the top of my list! Thank you Treesa.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, pet owners, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with young children, girls getaway, tourists without a car.

This home was everything the description said it would be and more! My husband, 21 year old son and I stayed for close to a week and had a great time. The home was spacious and beautiful. The owner obviously takes meticulous care of every single detail. We are very picky travelers and we could not have been happier. Tons of room, very elegant, all of our questions were answered instantly and we literally did not have a care in the world. We will definitely be back again! Thank you!!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 3/3

Stayed here with my family and could not have been more pleased. The house is beautifully decorated with all the comforts of home. The kitchen was well stocked, plenty of linens and very comfortable beds. The location could not be more ideal. Just a few short blocks to Melrose with great dining and shopping options. We would definitely return to this wonderful property for another great LA vacation! Thanks Treesa!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, romantic getaway, age 55+, girls getaway, tourists without a car, adventure seekers.
Owner response: Thank you Michael, It means so much to me, as I know that you have stayed in quite a few homes in the neighborhood and you are a well seasoned private home vacation renter. We so appreciate our guests and hope for another opportunity to offer our home so you and your family can make more lifetime memories! Best to you and Mom!

Our family had the pleasure of staying at 814 Vista for a week this May. Fabulous house in a great location. We enjoy walking and we could walk almost anywhere we wanted to go. The house was everything we had hoped it would be. We all enjoyed the "Welcome Basket" and used the many menus there to order in. The appointment to detail was great and we would definitely stay here again. Great home Treesa!Recommended for: Romantic getaway, age 55+, girls getaway.

We rented this house for 10 days in March. It was just as described, but was a bit larger than we'd imagined. It was nice that pasta, coffee, spices, oil, vinegar...home staples...were casually provided. Sort of like staying in a relative's house! Plenty of pots and pans, plenty of linens. The location was better than we thought. During our 10 days, we walked down to Melrose St. 5 times for dinner - what a relief after days of driving around. The most comfortable place was Blu Jam, the trendiest is called Street. We'd stay here again if we were in West Hollywood. Good job Treesa!Recommended for: Romantic getaway, age 55+, girls getaway.

My friends and I loved this home. It has all that you need to have a very comfortable stay, including lots of kitchen supplies, basic cooking items (oil, salt, pepper, coffee, tea, cream, etc....) and toilet paper! Many times when you rent a house or apartment, these items are not included. Also, the location of the house is amazing - you are within walking distance to tons of restaurants, cafes, bars and shops. The owner made it easy to check-in, check-out and gave us a whole lot of information about the house and the area. Couldn't have been happier with the rental!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, families with young children, girls getaway, tourists without a car.

My two teenage daughters and I spent 12 wonderful and relaxing days at this property and are already planning our next visit! After staying at such a spacious and charming home it makes no sense whatsoever to stay anywhere else. It beats any cramped hotel room, that's for sure! From the hi-quality bedding to the huge kitchen and the charming original 1920's details, this place truly has it all! I cannot recommend it enough. Thanks for everything Treesa!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2001
About the owner: Treesa is a creative and intuitive designer. ' I try to imagine what it is like to come to a big exciting city and still feel at home and safe. We all have expectations, especially since LA is often staring in so many TV shows and movies, so I want my guests to feel they are a part of all that is happening- the minute they walk through the front door.' The eye for detail and demand for the best, drives me to meet every anticipated need of our visitors. You will be greeted with wine basket and delicious treats to welcome you.
Why the Owner Chose West Hollywood:
This area of West Hollywood has the best of what is offered. In these small cities located in the metropolis, one can feel safe and at home. We are in a quiet part of the town, but are walking distance to what is happening and fun in tis interesting and hip neighborhood. Lots of West Hollywood is about late night bars and clubs, and while they are only a hop and a skip- we enjoy the serenity of the quiet coziness of a small town street and neighborhood. Jay Leno does his Jay Walk segments just up on Melrose- just to show you how eclectic and funny the local color really is.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
There are so many benefits to our home and area. The lifestyle is soooo LA... grab a latte by walking 2 blocks to Melrose Ave, go to the gym, meet friends just up the street for an organic wrap salad on a sidewalk cafe, watch the celebrities and paparazzi in and out of the boutiques, stop by the Santa Monica boulevard Trader Joe's for amazing gourmet items to make a beautiful dinner by candle light in our home. Surrounded by first quality furnishings and drapes, you feel like you are in a five star hotel.. then go out on the town- just a short cab ride to the Hollywood Bowl or club..all fun. This is what we Angelos get everyday-- come vacation like a rock star!
