A great stay near Universal

My extended family of 9 (including 3 kids) stayed at this home while in the area for Thanksgiving and a trip to Universal. The hope doesn't look big on the outside, but is huge inside! While it is slightly out of date, everything is relatively clean and in good working order. Parking seems intimidating at first, but it is actually quite easy.

Fantastic Stay Near Universal Studios

We had an absolutely wonderful experience staying at this VRBO near Universal Studios. The location was perfect – just a short drive or even walk to the park, which made it super convenient for our family. The home itself was clean, spacious, and well-stocked with everything we needed for our stay. The kids loved the game room and the pool, and we appreciated the fully equipped kitchen for preparing meals in between. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient stay near Universal Studios.

Family Celebration

We recently stayed for six nights and enjoyed our stay. Overall impressions: if you're primairly focused on locations and outdoor amemities, this house offers some advantages, expecially for those planning to visit Universal Studios. However, be prepared for a less-than-modern property that had limitiations in cooking supplies and in need of updated facilities. The outdoor pool and hot tub are well maintained and easy to use. Our stay was hampered by construction next door, which made it less than desirable to be outdoors.

Great stay

The house was great with plenty of room to hang out together or have quiet time apart. The pool and hot tub are great. We didn’t end up walking to Universal since the house is uphill from the park. The adults could have done it, but felt too challenging for tired kids.

So comfortable, clean and close to Universal!

We really enjoyed staying at this property; it just worked so well for the 6 of us: our group of grandparents, parents and two teens. Loved having the pool, spa and BBQ; it was so great to return from Universal Studios after a warm, tiring day and spend time with the family outdoors in the pool and spa. Beds were comfortable and having the 3 baths with showers worked out very well for the group. Would definitely recommend a stay here. Just a note--I would strongly recommend having a car to go to Universal, grocery store, etc.

Comfortable fun house!

Three generations going to Universal Studios and Dodger game enjoyed this very quiet, comfortable house. We were hoping to walk to Universal and to the metro but lack of sidewalks and very fast cars derailed that idea! Beds were very comfortable and the pool and spa were refreshing after a hot tourist day! Property manager responded quickly to a small inquiry. Great place!

Cozy and comfortable

This place was amazing. I stayed here for a week with 8 other adults and one teenager to attend school. It was a good walk to the school and lots of stores and restaurants within walking distance. You can easily walk to Universal Studios every day. There are nice hills to walk so you can get a good workout naturally. The hot tub and fire pit outside was so comforting at the end of a long da. It would have been nice to have a broom and dustpan to sweep.i would definitely stay here again..

Accurate description - could be improved with more family-friendly art and better kitchenware

Wonderful and helpful host; accurate description; great pool and spa! The experience was a little marred by inappropriate wall art for families (a woman with her underwear pulled down beneath her short skirt) and some very big booby-pictures; naked woman on mantelpiece so would give that feedback (or FYI for others wanting to book who may want to know). Cookware was also very scratched and did not feel commensurate with the rest of the "luxury" description. Otherwise was a nice stay with great pool and spa and game room! (Weight room with broken weights we didn't use or need). Seemed a bit expensive for what it was but also understand the rate is higher during holidays.

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

This home is a very complete self-contained resort in a world-class entertainment-rich neighborhood that any family or social or professional group will enjoy and long remember!

We love to Host nice people but know that privacy is why you rent a private home so you may never see or hear from us and unless you want or need to.

This home although completely rebuilt and modernized was in the day the home of famous musicians and the recording studio for some of the top names of yester year... A fun history, and still today the neighborhood is packed with media industry professionals and talent. If you see someone famous... smile but leave them alone :)

What makes this property unique

Stroll across the street to the Universal Studios Theme Park Hollywood or an array of world-famous studios and local hotspots on Ventura Blvd. Or down the street to the world-famous Hollywood and Sunset Blvds. Or a little further to Beverly Hills and Rodeo Drive and shop like the rich and famous.

Or take the Metro subway just a short walk at Universal station to the Hollywood station for the world-famous Hollywood Blvd’s “Walk of Fame” and exciting glamorous nightlife. Or Metro to anywhere in Los Angeles greater area. Getting around A short walk to the nearby metro station provides convenient access to all of L.A. and CA. The next station is Hollywood Blvd. -- site of the “Walk of Fame”, museums, restaurants, and sightseeing.
