About this property
Charismatic Sea Cottage Near Beach & Entertainment
This 500 sqft, 2bd/1ba cottage gives you the conveniences of home, while enjoying a vacation getaway! Designed with a serene blue ocean theme, it sets the tone for a beach vacation. Built in 1913 and recently renovated, the home still boasts much of its original charm. Located in Alamitos Beach, a multicultural, urban neighborhood of Long Beach. Only a 15 min walk to the beach and steps from shops, restaurants and bars. Hidden off the main street in a small alley behind the hustle and bustle.
The full kitchen is stocked with cookware, serveware and small appliances. Enjoy nearly year-round warm weather with a home cooked meal, or local takeout at the picnic table on your private patio. Whether in town for work or entertainment, you are sure to enjoy the lightning-fast Wi-Fi at 700 mbps. Smart 50 inch Amazon fire TVs in both bedrooms and the living room will allow you to access your favorite streaming accounts. The Jack and Jill style bathroom opens to the master bedroom and the kitchen, and features a small shower stall, marble tiled floor and an attached bidet.
Long Beach and southern California in general are most easily accessed by car. We do offer one off-street parking space, located directly in front of the front porch. Any additional vehicles may be parked on the street. Please note that street parking can be scarce at times so you may have to search awhile and park a bit away from the house. When parking on the street please check the street signs for time limitations, in order to avoid a parking ticket. If you prefer not to drive, there is still much to do within walking distance. Uber and Lyft are another great option for visiting attractions that are a bit further away.
We live nearby and member of our team is available if you need anything during your stay. We try to give our guests their space and privacy so we will likely only contact you when necessary to ensure you have an enjoyable stay.
The cottage is located in the emerging neighborhood of Alamitos Beach in Long Beach. It is an eclectic, urban, and artsy community with amazing restaurants, street art, and shops (including the famous Retro Row).
