Family mini vacation

I was pleasantly surprised at how nice this property was. It surpassed my expectations! I have stayed at many VRBO homes and usually the homes are fine. This home was much nicer than I expected and the neighborhood is beautiful. John was great to work with and communicated everything timely and in great detail. We would definitely stay there again and highly recommend the property.

Great house in a Great location

Great property, ideal for a large group. The separate mother in law suite was perfect for group. There is a lot of room to hang out, inside and out. Parking for two cars was also nice. The house is a 5 min walk to a huge park. The neighborhood was nice a quiet. The heater was loud in both areas and didn't really get going in the main house.

Great fall stay in Long Beach!

We loved this property so much! Our family of 5 plus grandparents perfectly at this property. We loved the two separate spaces, the grandparents enjoyed the studio area while we were in the main home. Our family loved the backyard space, the access to laundry, and beach chairs and towels. We enjoyed the quite neighborhood and nearby park. This was a great place for heading to Knotts Berry Farm and the beach. Our family loved the recommendation of Rosie’s Dog beach. Great hosts and they truly thought of everything!

Good House and Bonus MIL Space

Decent sized house with extra Mother-in-Law space. Perfect for staying with family (kids + grandparents) when visiting SoCal amusement parks. Good and quiet neighborhood, close to the airport, grocery stores, and freeways. Appliances in kitchen are good, plenty of dishes and cutlery, but cookware could use an update. Some quirks with the bathrooms that were fixed-up/remodeled. Beds are average with respect to comfort, but have bedding that is clean and in good condition.

About the host

Hosted by John Seckinger

Host profile image
We have traveled extensively throughout Latin America and have lived in different countries. Our three kids were all born in Long Beach and spent their first few years in this house. Our three kids grew up overseas, and went to university in Florida. We moved back to Florida in 2017 and renovated this house with intention to make it into a Vacation rental. We have been hosts for over three years and love the challenges as well as the diverse people we meet. We try to set up our property, with some character, so our guest feel like they arrived "home" not just a "place with a bed" enjoy our home, enjoy Long Beach and the area!

Why they chose this property

We were living and working in Long Beach we bought this house to live in and lived in it for three years. This was the second house we ever bought but is one of our favorite houses thanks to the neighborhood and overall ambience.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with the house thanks to the welcoming park the quiet streets the peacefulness, privacy and security the house gave us. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we do.
