Kye and Elena are amazing hosts. The pride they take in their property made our stay so relaxing and enjoyable. The Pinapple Cottage was the cleanest vacation rental we have stayed in…ever. The amenities are perfect - sand chairs, boogie boards etc. Kye provided recommendations for restaurants and helped us map out our agenda. We plan on returning next year.

Small Family Vacation

As a family of four (2 adults and 2 under the age of four) we thought this place suitted us well for our 5 day stay. It was a small space but we were totally fine. Hardest part was having the youngest sleep in the living room when I tried to get things during her naps and early rest.Location is great! We walked to the beach every day. Easy drive to Knotts Berry Farm! The hosts were very helpful and easy to communicate with. They definitely want to make sure everyone enjoys their stay in Seal Beach!

About the host

Hosted by Elena Osti

Host profile image
Our first sunset in Seal Beach after moving back from Hawaii holds a special place in our hearts. As avid travelers ourselves, we understand the importance of a truly wonderful, memorable, and relaxing vacation. We are dedicated to ensuring your stay is nothing short of exceptional, providing you with an unforgettable adventure by the sea.

Why they chose this property

We have always loved Seal Beach before moving to Waikiki and have called it home for many years. After returning from Hawaii, we knew we wanted to be near the water. Fortunately, our home is just one house away from the Pacific Ocean. We enjoy the cool ocean breezes and frequent walks along the shore. The satisfaction of returning home after a long day is truly worth it!

What makes this property unique

Our home, built in 1949, has been lovingly remodeled to retain the charm of the 1940s, creating a "Modern with old vintage character" feel. Originally the model home in 1941 for the small beach cottages along Ocean Ave and other old town streets in Seal Beach, we've preserved that unique 1940s vibe while adding a modern touch. From the moment you check in, you're just steps away from the Pacific Ocean, the Boardwalk, Pier, and Main Street. The entrance to the Pineapple Cottage is conveniently located on Seal Way.🍍🌊🍍❤️🍍😎🍍🐟🍍🏖️
