Really enjoyed staying at this property. Kirk was super responsive, and everything was as described. This is a great value for an excellent location in Hermosa. Property has everything you need: multiple bedrooms and bathrooms, kitchen, beach toys, laundry, bicycles, multiple TVs with Roku, etc. I'm sure I will look for this location every time now when I visit! Thanks again for a great stay!

We hope to see you again. Thank-You. Safe travels!!!
For a garden-level apartment, it would be helpful to know how and where to open windows for ventiliation. We found them.Also, a guide to what TV channels the system has access to, and how to access it, would be helpful.We were very happy overall, and the garage full of beach toys was a huges plus. (Adding a couple of beach-tennis racquets would be great.)

Thank-You for the very nice comments about your recent stay with us in Hermosa Beach!!! We appreciate it so much. We really hope to see you again soon. Life’s a Beach!!!!!
Immaculately clean, great location, all amenities we needed
We rented this place for a month while we remodel our house, and we really enjoyed our stay. The owners were always so accommodating to all of our needs, and it was a 2 minute walk to the beach, with all the "beach toys" available to us so we were to bike, surf, etc and make the most of it! Easy, quick walk to many restaurants, shops, and quiet even though close to all this.

Thank-You for your positive comments and feedback. We hope to see you again!!!
I visited from Guatemala along with my friend Anabelle from Guatemala also. Her boy friend visited for a few days. It is a wonderful location most of all. The owner is always ready to give you a hand and answer questions. There are a lot of stairs so a friend with special needs that wanted to visit me was not able to join but it was superb.

Thank-You. We hope to see you again on your next visit to Hermosa Beach. Sorry about the stairs. Our property has an amazing location and amenities, but it may not be ideal for guests that have difficulty navigating stairs. We try to explain the stairs in our description of the property. Here is a copy of what is says on the VRBO description: “This basement unit has stairs, and may not be ideal for guests that have difficulty with stairs.” Again, we enjoyed having you as our guests and we truly hope to see you again!!!
One of a kind property. Great location, very well maintained property. Beach Strand, restaurants, grocery etc all walking distance from property. Responsive, organized, welcoming hosts. Enjoyed every moment. Hoping to return and rent again!

Thank-You! We absolutely loved having you as our guests and hope to see you again in the future!!! You are always welcome. Life’s a Beach!!!!!
Very clean and generously stocked with supplies and linens. The location is outstanding for easy beach and Pier Ave access (restaurants, shops). The owners are super friendly and responsive. Checking in and out were a breeze. It’s difficult to find such an affordable place with this much space and amenities so close to the beach! We definitely hope to stay again.

Thank-You for the nice comments. It was a pleasure having you as our guest in Hermosa Beach, and we hope to see you again in the future.
We had a wonderful stay at Kirk’s place in Hermosa. We loved using the bikes, surfboards, waveboards, and the beach chairs provided by Kirk. The rooftop terrace was a real highlight of the apartment. Although the unit is downstairs and there are stairs in the house, it didn’t bother us as an active family. Communication with Kirk was excellent—he even offered us surfing tips, but unfortunately our busy LA-schedule didn’t allow for it. The location is fantastic, and out of our four-week US trip, staying with Kirk was an absolute highlight—a vacation within our vacation. We’d love to come back!

Property is ideally situation walking distance to the beach and to the hermosa pier, which has tons of options (in non-lockdown times) for dining and drinks. The unit is very spacious with 2 BR's, 3 bathrooms and a daybed in the living room. Shared rooftop balcony with plenty of seating and some ocean views is key as the downstairs unit does not get much natural light. Great value for the price!

Thanks for your feedback! I’m really glad that you enjoyed your stay. The basement unit is a great value as you mentioned, but it is a basement, so the best views and lounging areas are on the shared rooftop deck, or at the beach which is only a couple hundred yards away.
My Family and I stayed here while we were renovating our house in a neighboring city.
Location was excellent, unit was comfortable and clean.
We did have a couple unforeseen issues come up during our stay related to the plumbing and electronic locks (low battery), communication was immediate and resolutions to these issues were mitigated well. Having a host that is reachable at almost any hour of the day is invaluable and that is what you get staying here.

Perfect location!!!
Great place in a great beach community. Perfect location! Everything you'd need for a fun beach vacation. Walk out your door and walk right to the beach. A few blocks from Pier Avenue with all the shops and restaurants. All the fun beach gear you need. The bikes were great to ride down the Strand. There's a nice rooftop hangout. We stayed in the lower level of the property. Thanks, Mary Jo. We had a great stay!
Everything was perfect. Being in the basement was not a problem. Warm, quiet, secluded. The absence of natural light only motivated us to get outside as often as possible, which we should be doing anyhow.
We had an extended stay here for 1.5 months. Kirk was an amazing host! So thoughtful, nice, kind, and the place was amazing! It had everything you could need and then some. Kirk was easy to communicate with during our stay, and everything could not have gone better. Perfect location, spotless, and who couldn’t love being that close to the beach? Thanks so much for letting us stay in your beautiful home!

A Great spot!
This was a great spot to stay. I was a guest here for nearly 6 weeks. The place was clean and quiet. Walking distance from anywhere you want to be. Only a few yards from the beach, and Hermosa Pier. I enjoyed my stay so much that I actually extended for a few weeks longer than I had originally booked. I highly recommend this property and hope I will have the opportunity to be a guest here again.
