This is the most perfect place to stay if you’re exploring the Long Beach area. Lars and Bonnie are incredibly responsive and attentive hosts and the Casita is everything you’d imagine. Down to each detail there is nothing more you’ll need. Coffee maker, laundry, dishes, an iron, surfaces, places to plug-in, gorgeous bathtub and cute bathroom, lovely outdoor space perfect for playing cards, private yard for dogs to run in, and as others have mentioned that treats that Lars leaves you make the deal even sweeter. The neighborhood is charming and safe. We will be back!

Property and owners were lovely, and just as advertised. Safe, quiet neighborhood within walking distance of delicious coffee shops and restaurants, a park, and all the amenities anyone might need. It was like a home away from home for our family.

Perfect little Casita!

This was our 2nd year in a row staying at Lars' place and we will absolutely stay again. Everything is so well thought out for our care and comfort. Great location, easy to walk to delicious coffee spots, plus it's less than 5 mins from our family we were there to visit. Thank you for another great stay!

Cute Casita

This was a very cute small home. Lars was so hospitable leaving us with cookies and some delicious baked goods from a local bakery. Home was stocked with everything needed and would definitely stay again on any future trips.

Perfect Stay

We brought our two little fur babies to take them to the dog beach which was about 15 minutes away. The dogs had a private yard at the casita. Lars had so many amenities for our stay. Lars was always checking with us to see if we needed anything. Wonderful stay would book again.

Great support by owner

It is a small place, but well supplied, well organized, and in a nice neighborhood. Parking was easy. But the best thing was the service and support provided by the owner, whose house is on the same lot. He helped us at arrival and departure, and was never more than a quick text away.

Slice of paradise

Beautiful accommodations. The hosts are extremely kind and thoughtful. The guest house is very comfortable and beautiful. This was exactly what my family needed after a long drive and an all day stay at an amusement park. Very cute and quite neighborhood. Very good experience. I will be back!

Quaint and Cozy with Charm

Our family loved staying here. Lars was such a wonderful host. We were greeted with a personalized welcome sign on the fridge. It was so thoughtful. Lars also left snacks and bottled water for us. The claw foot bathtub was really special. We would definitely stay here again.

Thanksgiving

Lars made a point of ensuring that our stay was perfect. His communication was prompt and thorough, the check in process was easy, and he left us baked cookies, morning danishes, fruit, eggs, and other treats to make our stay comfortable. He was an attentive and respectful host. I will stay at his place again.

Lovely little casita in Long Beach

We had a lovely stay while on a girls college reunion weekend. Lars is fantastic and includes so many fun extras like freshly baked cookies and Sparkling cider. We absolutely loved the private patio and spent hours out there catching up. Parking is also fantastic. Tons of street parking as well as two dedicated driveway spots. I wish every rental property could be like this!i

Lars redefines being a good host!

Lars and his accommodations were amazing! Loved the neighborhood, accessibility, and the charm of Casita Gundry, both inside and outside. His communication beforehand made checking in very smooth, and his preparation with information throughout the home was helpful as well. I absolutely loved the decor and comfort from the bedding to the claw foot tub! Highlight of my stay in Long Beach!

Wonderful stay

My wife, dog, and I enjoyed our stay. Lars was a wonderful host and has carefully and thoughtfully prepared the home to take care of anything we wanted or needed. Provided high quality recommendations of local restaurants and activities. We enjoyed getting some work done in the private backyard and letting our dog run around and nap in the grassy, fully fenced yard. Had a wonderful time and wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again the next time we’re in the area. Thanks to Lars for being such a wonderful host and sharing his home with us.

Everything we expected and more...

We had a very pleasant stay. The rental was comfy, clean, adorable and easy to find. Centrally located, so we didn't have to travel far when traveling around Long Beach. Lars provides everything you need: soft towels, wonderful bedding, cookies, coffee, and all other accoutrements needed to make your stay cushy and complete. A definite recommended! Thank you, Lars. :-)

Cozy and Comfortable

We had a fantastic stay at Casita Gundry! Check in was so easy and we were exhausted after a late flight in from the east coast. Imagine our delight when we woke up the next morning to eggs and incredible pastries waiting for us in the fridge. It was such a blessing to take breakfast off our plate...or put it on rather. LOL Plus the home was just 3 mins from our family we were there to visit - we will absolutely be back!

Casita Gundry is the absolute best home away from home and one of my favorite staycation spots in Southern California. Lars offers so many thoughtful touches to enhance each stay, from local pastries, eggs, and homemade cookies awaiting me at check-in to a spacious bathtub caddy with room for a book and a (provided) scented candle to helpful recommendations of local restaurants and hangouts. The space itself is super cozy, and I love having the private outdoor patio to enjoy. Casita Gundry reminds me of hotel rooms in Japan, where everything has its spot and anything you could need has been considered, whether that's a citronella candle for the outdoor table or creamer for the provided coffee or extra little fold out tables tucked away by the front door. I'll always return whenever I get the chance, don't hesitate to book if you're able!

Snug Little Getaway

How lovely for our pups to have a yard to run and stretch in that is enclosed and we don't have to worry about them. Casita Gundry is put together brilliantly to accommodate space. There isn't an inch that is wasted. It feels very similar to camping with the trailer that has everything and your dining room being the great outdoors. We will always have a soft spot for our little house in Cal Heights as it gave us shelter from the storm. We see it as sanctuary. The hosts couldn't be more charming. There are many cute restaurants around and it is very freeway friendly. I think you'll love this historical part of Long Beach.

Intimate and a Memory Maker

I’ve never had a host as responsive as Lars. Seriously, his responsiveness helped so much in making sure this stay would be as memorable as possible. Casita Gundry was intimate, cozy, and just know it is small, but even with my group pushing the limits of guest size (recommended three but maximum 5), we were able to make it work and enjoy the space entirely. Casita Gundry if anything, is an amazing memory maker, being able to turn a space as intimate as it is, into orbs of light you’ll remember forever. Thank you so much Lars, thank you for the sweet treats given, and for curating such a beautiful and clean space.
