Sweet spot by the beach - vintage charm, modern amenities
My sister and I took my three kids to LA for fall break. We did all the usual things and this was a perfect home base. The dog beach was charming and the 2nd Street food and retail scene had it all. Loved the house. This is nerdy, but anything with a mortise lock has my heart.

Perfect beach side retreat
My family and I had the perfect weekend getaway at Casa de las Palmas! 1/2 block from the beach in a quiet neighborhood. Home was picturesque with everything we needed. Beach cruisers were available with air pump, bike lock, and helmets. Boogie boards and all the beach necessities were provided! Everyone absolutely enjoyed their stay! I highly recommend for families or a couples getaway.

Exactly as advertised- great place and fun location
Charming little place on a relatively quiet street just a few minutes walk from a great public beach. We would definitely stay again in the future. Everyone loved the fountains and the breakfast nook, and the beach chairs and beach towels were appreciated. Had some minor mechanical issues with some things but the fantastic property manager was instantaneous on the solutions and was incredible to work with.
