We designed this space for our family and friends to stay when they visit, and share it with others in between. We remodeled all 720 sqft to serve as a home base for someone coming for a couple of days or a couple of months. Adam manages about 40 short-term rentals, and incorporated all the best parts when designing this space for you. Thanks and we hope to host you soon! \- Adam and Anna The Space: When you enter using the Yale smart lock, you'll be welcomed by the primary bedroom. There's a large king bed with a Helix mattress and hotel quality bedding. 🛏️ Around the the corner to the bedroom, you'll find a work from home set-up with an optional standing desk, 27" monitor, key board and mouse ready for you to plug-in. This area also functions as a second sleeping area with a pull-out queen bed. Next over is the bathroom - always stocked with shower essentials, q-tips, flossers, make-up remover pads, and others. The kitchen has brand new appliances and pretty much everything you'll need.

Outdoor area can not be used past 9pm, and we ask that you are respectful of noise regardless of the time of day. Adam and Anna use it as well but guests will have first dibs. The Neighborhood: Redondo Beach offers a quintessential Southern California coastal experience, highlighted by its beautiful beaches and stunning ocean views. The city provides a relaxed, yet vibrant atmosphere, with a lively pier, diverse dining options, and ample opportunities for outdoor activities. Its combination of scenic beauty, recreational options, and a friendly community makes this home the perfect place to stay. 🏝️ Points of Interest: DINE🥘 ✧ HopSaint Brewing Company (0.6 miles) ✧ Barsha (1 mile) ✧ Dumpling Mix (1 mile) ✧ BlueSalt Fish Grill (1 mile) ✧ Baran's 2239 (2 miles) EXPLORE 🎢 ✧ Palos Verdes Coastline Trail (7 miles) ✧ South Coast Botanic Garden (7 miles) ✧ Santa Monica (20 miles) ✧ Aquarium of the Pacific ( 20 miles) ✧ Disneyland (30 miles) SUNBATHE☀️ ✧ Hermosa Beach Pier (2 miles) ✧ Redondo Beach Pier (3 miles) ✧ Manhattan Beach (3 miles) ✧ RAT Beach (5 miles) ✧ White Point Beach (14 miles) ✧ Venice Beach (16 miles) AIRPORT 🛫 ✧ Los Angeles International Airport LAX (8 miles) \*Please note that these approximate travel distances serve as a reference, and actual distances may vary depending on chosen route, traffic conditions, and other factors.

A couple quick notes: \- Owners live in the unit above \- We added a layer of cork underneath the flooring, but the unit is still subject to noise from the unit above and water pipes in the walls \- Aside from the bathroom, the unit has an open flow and the bedroom doesn't have a door to separate it from the other rooms Interaction with Guests: Anna and Adam currently live in the unit above. We'll follow your lead, happy to say hi or completely respect your privacy. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the apartment: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Entertainment - Games - TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Office ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Bicycles - Optional golf privileges - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Rock climbing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - Bicycles - Garden - Unit size: 720 square feet ## Similar properties ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/90000000/89740000/89733300/89733237/a3fee4d6.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Luxury Hangout | Private Spa + Game Room + Arcade Long Beach - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=89733237&PinnedHotelID=89733237&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109370000/109365800/109365767/d5eed275.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Bungalow 2bed/2bath in Lawndale Lawndale - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 8.0 Very good 1 review [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=109365767&PinnedHotelID=109365767&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109730000/109728000/109727927/c9e58d8b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Game Room | Single-Story 3BR Near Beach & LAX Lawndale - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 8.0 Very good 6 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=109727927&PinnedHotelID=109727927&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96190000/96183300/96183260/22ea39aa.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lovely cottage 2 miles from the beach in quiet neighborhood Seaside - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 9.0 Wonderful 43 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=96183260&PinnedHotelID=96183260&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/119000000/118380000/118376900/118376836/519de3f0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming 2-bedroom house, 1.7miles from Manhattan beach pier with WiFi, AC North Redondo - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 9.4 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=118376836&PinnedHotelID=118376836&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/92000000/91960000/91960000/91959961/cc52cc0c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### South Bay Sanctuary Lawndale - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 8.8 Excellent 13 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=91959961&PinnedHotelID=91959961&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/115000000/114160000/114158200/114158172/22e05fe2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Newly built, stylish and spacious 3-bedroom getaway.
