About the host

Hosted by Helen X Vanefsky

Host profile image
I am originally from the islands of Malta in Southern Europe.
I love the ocean, sun and sand, and the beach lifestyle. I enjoy watching sunsets over the Pacific, taking long walks on the beach, going downtown to my favorite shops, cafes or ice cream parlors and attending yoga and pilates classes. My career as a residential interior designer allows me to be creative, I design and remodel coastal homes in OC and have a passion for old architecture and renovating historic homes.
I am offering my home for couples, families and business travelers who share my interests and passion for historic homes and enjoyment of the beach lifestyle.

Why they chose this property

I fell in love at first sight with this Spanish Colonial Beach Bungalow. Its simple style reminds me of the Moorish Mediterranean houses in Southern Europe where I originally come from. I treasure the amazing craftsmanship details of the 1930s including the original double hung windows, archways, hardwood floors, large picture window at the front and the original terra cotta roof. Over the past 25 years, it has been a work in progress as I have been renovating it back to its original beauty. I have enjoyed many peaceful moments sitting at the patio looking at the flower and fruit gardens surrounding it. It's a perfect place for having coffee in the morning, or relaxing with a glass of wine after a long day at the beach.


What makes this property unique

This house has been carefully restored and preserved to its original beauty. The existing hard wood floors were uncovered and refinished. Over the past four years, I have worked with the city of Huntington Beach to renovate all the bathrooms and update all new amenities like electrical, plumbing and mechanical. It is now as functional as it is beautiful.

Also a new addition (the Mother-in-laws quarter) was recently completed using preserved 1930s windows and doors identical to the original. This addition has added 3 more bedrooms and 2 more bathrooms to the main house, making it ideal for large families or groups who need a big enough space to get together.

Groups of 5 or smaller who have not requested the additional mother-in-law quarters will only have access to the main house.

Groups larger than 5 who request and pay for the additional mother-in-law quarters will have access to the main house and mother in law quarters.

Groups smaller than 5 who request the mother-in-law quarters and agree to pay for it separately upon reservation can also have the same .

To ensure availability of the main house and mother in law quarters simultaneously it is best to request and book both at the same time. Thank you
