Dogs had a blast

Needed a place to stay while our home was fumigated. Found this place with a pet-friendly pool. Our dog had a blast found a skunk the first night, and coyotes the next days. His girlfriend came over for a swim or two. Only downside was mosquitos.

Perfect Oasis

The hosts were fantastically kind and accommodating. The pool area and property were beautiful to wake up to each morning. The only complaint is the ant problem in the kitchen - recommend silicone caulk along the window sill to keep them out. Overall, it was a comfortable stay and I would book again in a heartbeat.

Unique resort

Initially disappointed as the main property is overgrown and lots of things laying around which I would call rubbish, rusting outside furniture, old antique doors needing renovation, old car under cover etc. The rental property is good and well equipped, the pool furniture could do with a good clean, mosquitoes were a problem. We got the feeling that this was a lovely property in it's time, but now is run down. The hot tub was good, pool good, but looks like the tiles could do with a clean. Overall had a nice stay here, thanks.

Altadena casita

Wonderful place to while away an afternoon by the pool. Lush garden dining areas, birds and views of the hills outside. Great communication with our host, cool Armenian market a few blocks away. We made breakfast and relaxed outside in the morning, then were able to zip into LA and then back to chill in the evening. 10 minutes to the Huntington and old town Pasadena. We will be back!

My favorite place to stay in Pasadena

We just completed our second stay at the casita and enjoyed it very much! The lush, green surroundings, quiet location and pool and hot tub give the property a resort feel. It's a great place to host local family members as well. Thanks, Tricia!

Our Mini Paradise

My husband and I stayed for just over one week and got some much needed relaxation. Tricia and Leila were amazing to work with and we enjoyed our random chats with them. The casita is tucked away and very private. It has everything you could ever need. The surrounding area is gorgeous and easy to navigate. Our daily visits from the flock of wild parrots was the icing on the cake. We can’t forget their adorable dog, Hazel Grace. Seeing her made us miss ours less!
