Spanish villa with pool and outdoor kitchen centrally located in LA.
We are located on a culdesac in the quiet residential neighborhood of Ladera Heights. We are in close proximity to all things LA including LAX, beaches, and Sofi LA. We are within 10 to 20 minutes from surrounding cities including Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Venice Beach and Marina del Rey. We especially love to host families as we understand the importance of spending quality time together. With that in mind, we have created an environment to make gathering together special. Although our maximum number of overnight guests is 8, you are welcome to have day time visitors but the number of total guests on the property should never exceed 25. Music at ambient level is also acceptable. We have summer and winter rate for pool/spa heating. We ask a few questions before accepting a booking in order to determine the needs of our guests to ensure that we are indeed a good fit. We also welcome inquiries before you book as we are ready to assist in any way we can to ensure you have a great stay!
We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful home. Exactly as pictured and has everything you could need. The pool and backyard are fantastic for hanging out and enjoying the beautiful weather. Everything is very well maintained. Angela is the perfect host, she is extremely responsive with every text I sent. Neighborhood is great and location is very central to so much in LA. Would definitely stay again!
This gorgeous home was the perfect spot to hold our family reunion. The place was bright, spacious, and beautifully decorated with lots of amenities. The stunning backyard pool and hot tub were enjoyed by everyone. Angela was super helpful and responsive in providing us with supplies and recommendations during our stay. Thank you so much for making our family reunion a memorable one!
We could not have asked for a better set up. This house had everything one could hope for. The pool and jacuzzi were splendid and the art work put the finishing touches on a warm and cozy home away from home. Can't wait to return!
We booked the property for a group of 8 adults and 3 children to see my husband off before a deployment with the US Army Reserves. It was perfect and exceeded our expectations in every way. The space itself was very peaceful and zen. The house seemed professionally decorated, inviting and had a ton of interesting art. There were pool towels readily available and thoughtful touches such as robes in the bedrooms. I would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful and beautiful space to enjoy time with friends and family.
The house was exactly as described on the listing. Beautiful, charming, eclectic, and spacious indoor and outdoor. House was like being at a resort; beds were comfortable; bathrooms had all amenities needed. Good distance to UCLA as we were there for graduation weekend.Owner, Angela, was very responsive and accommodating and made us feel âat homeâ :)Will definitely come back for our 2nd childâs graduation in 2 years!
An absolutely stunning property and exceptionally appointed. The perfect venue to host family and friends for our sonâs special day!! The host was so attentive to our needs. I highly recommend!!
Words can't begin to describe how lovely this home is, and how perfect it was for us; eight good friends who get together from all over the country and the world, at least once a year. The host was welcoming and available at all times. Everything worked, everything was clean and tastefully appointed. The kitchen and outdoor barbecue had everything we needed, and the five bedrooms and four baths were comfortable and welcoming. The front courtyard and back yard were as lovely and tranquil as they appear in the photos. This is a quiet neighborhood and a lovingly decorated and cared for home, perfect for 3-4 couples or 8 good friends looking for a peaceful getaway. If that is what you are looking for, you will find nothing finer than this. We are so grateful to Angela, our hostess, for sharing this gem with us.
The property is an absolute gem. The decor in every space is meticulously curated, giving you a welcome home vibe from the moment you step through the door. The pool/hot tub/outdoor kitchen combo was exactly what our family get together called for. Angela was extremely responsive to all our requests and needs.
My family and I had a wonderful stay at the villa. The property was lovely, and just as described. The location was close to everything we wanted to do in Los Angeles, and the owner was very responsive and helpful. Thank you!
The house had enough seating for a party of 8 to sit comfortably together in multiple locations within the house: its living room, 2 different, inside and outside dining areas and a large sitting area next to the pool. The kitchen was equipped with plenty of good quality pots, pans, cutlery and dishes. All the house's appliances and electronic devices, e.g., Wi-Fi, worked well. We never tested the TV's but, in addition to the big TV in the living room, there seemed to be a small TV in every bedroom. The house's outside area next to its pool is surrounded by beautiful foliage. We often forgot we were lounging in the middle of a big city. The house's owner was a delightful person. She responded in minutes to any texts we sent her. I could see us coming back to this house in the future.
Property was great. 15-20 min from LAX, good neighborhood, Host very responsive. Ample room for our group, everything you need need is there. Would stay again for sure.
We came in to see our adult kids and their significant others and wanted a large space with multiple master bedrooms and a pool and hot tub. The Spanish Gem was perfect! The neighborhood is safe near a Church. The home is luxurious and well laid out for 3-4 couples hanging out in the pool. Many gathering spots inside and out. Rooftop with beautiful sunset views! Angela is the most amazing host!!! Iâm so happy we had the opportunity to meet her! Sheâs so accommodating anytime of the day/evening. We will absolutely be back!!
Everything was great with our stay. My only regret was not having more friends to enjoy it with. The house is very comfortable and well appointed. We were there on business and the location was perfect for our needs, but next time we'll plan on spending more downtime at the house itself.
Absolutely beautiful home in a great neighborhood. Convenient location for driving to see the coast, tourist destinations and downtown LA. The host is superb. I highly recommend staying here
Great location, very close to LA. Property is in a very nice neighborhood. Home is as represented, very nice and well appointed. We used it for a trip to see USC vs Rutgers football game. Home is conveniently located for seeing the sights of LA. Very pleased!!
For my 50th birthday I had a sleepover with my seven best friends. There were lots of "Oohs and aahs" from the moment we opened the door. This house is a beauty and ideal for entertaining. It's intimate, yet it has plenty of space to spread out. Angela, the hostess, was very nice and helpful. She was very responsive to any inquiries we had. My birthday weekend was amazing. I would definitely stay at this location again.
Wow! What a great experience.
The house was incredibly spacious with different seating areas, inside and out.
The beds were very comfortable and the house was nicely decorated. We felt that we were in a real home versus a lot of rentals.
The only downside was there wasnât an adequate amount of silverware for our five guests.
Angela was an awesome host that was very accommodating and super responsive. The house itself gets more beautiful with every step. It was clean, safe and perfect for our stay.The wives/women surprised the husbands/men that are firemen, linemen and/or first responders. Our planned vacation was canceled due to the fires so we opted for a staycation. Five couples stayed at the house. We brought in a private chef to cook dinner for us for Valentineâs Day. Four additional guests joined for dinner only.. We kept it under 25 people and followed the stated rules.
Our extended family had a really wonderful stay here. The house, pool and neighborhood were all perfect. I gave four stars rather than five because we had some maintenance issues come up during the stay. However, Angela was extremely reachable and took care of the issues right away. Overall, I would highly recommend and would be very happy to book again.
