This home is in a perfect location, beach access was a quick bike ride or walk. House was clean and the pool was a bonus after a Long Beach day. The agency was quick to respond with any questions, will definitely come back to this home

House is just tremendous. Part of our trip was family only (group of 4) and the rest of the trip included a larger group. Worked perfect for all the above. Impeccably organized, they literally thought of everything that we could have possibly needed. Great location, very convenient and quiet street. We will certainly look to stay again here in the future.
