Why the Owner Chose Hollywood: We fell in love with the Hollywood Hills back in the mid 90s and decided to buy an old Hollywood Home built in the 1930s this year. It's a magical place with stunning views, including the Hollywood sign and it's like our own private retreat with a small bamboo forest outside our bedroom window. We both have always loved old Spanish style houses and this one exudes charm.

Thanks Debbie for a wonderful stay at Casa Colinas. The house was perfect for our family of five, including three teens who enjoyed the view as much as we did. We found everything we needed and the privacy was a treat after long days in town. We hope to visit LA again and will certainly make Casa Colinas our first priority for hospitality! Thanks for everything.

Let me start by saying "Ditto!" We agree with all the other 5 star reviews - this home was exactly what we love in a home. It was lovely, comfortable, bright, clean, well-equipped and amazingly connected to nature. The spaces outside were beautiful and each offered a unique outside experience. For example, the patio space just outside the front door provided a comfortable place to relax and enjoy the gorgeous view, and the patio just outside the kitchen door provided a cozy, private place to dine and entertain. To be so close to so much and yet removed from all the hustle and bustle was a real gift. This home is a rare find and we would love to return some day.
I cannot begin to tell you what a fantastic experience we had at Casa Colinas! Debbie was so helpful with our LA vist. This home has EVERYTHING you need. The views are breathtaking and the home has so much character and meshes with the landscape of the Hollywood Hills. We were traveling with our two teenagers and my father. There was something for everyone! My father loved the wildlife around the property. He saw a deer bedded down right outside the breakfast window while he was enjoying his coffee one morning. There was plenty of hot water for all of us to shower, we had every piece of cookware and utensil you can think of, cozy bedding and the neighborhood is so peaceful and quiet! It's so easy to get from the property to wherever you need to go in LA. We did some of the tours, did a day trip to Catalina Island, another day trip to the PCH/Santa Monica/Malibu area. Debbie left recommendations for restaurants and she was spot on! We tried a few and were thrilled! We are already trying to figure out when we can return, that morning and sunset view (especially of the iconic Hollywood sign) was like a dream! Thanks again Debbie and Rick for your hospitality and making these Southerners feel right "at home".
Fabulous views. Wonderful host and a great location with a clean comfortable and well appointed home nestled in the hills.
The location was perfect, driving through the hills was a blast. Debbie and her husband take care of everything lovingly.
The house has an excellent location and were able to hit all of our spots without worrying about traffic. Had a blast!
This property was so private and so beautiful. The view is amazing and the house itself is a cozy hideaway. It's up in the hills, so there is some winding on your drive, but I love that stuff. Great place, great host and I can't wait to come back again and stay soon.
Close to shopping, dining, fitness gym, world class museums and entertainment. Minutes to hiking in Runyon Canyon & Hollywood Reservoir. Thirty minutes to the beach and 45 minutes to Disneyland.
