Summer in SoCal! 2BR Retreat Near Beach + Dtwn LBC... Only 30min to Disneyland!

And so the adventure begins! Welcome to our modern Spanish bungalow in the Cali enclave of Long Beach. Come enjoy the luxury of a full-size home without sacrificing character or cozy vibes, all a mere...

- 0.9 miles from Beach
- 1.6 miles from Long Beach Convention Center
- 1.7 miles from Downtown Long Beach
- 2.7 miles from Aquarium of the Pacific
- 5.2 miles from Long Beach Airport
- 17 miles from Disneyland

It is located in the lovely Alamitos Beach neighborhood of Long Beach! Both spacious and thoughtfully designed, this 904 square foot unit is one half of a duplex with completely private interior accommodations and a shared backyard.

Kindly note: there's an onsite driveway with space available for (1) vehicle. It is tandem parking that's shared with the duplex neighbor, so you may occationally have to let one another out of the driveway. In addition, there is street parking all around however availability of the closest spots will vary depending on the time and what's happening in the area. The property is near downtown on a on a busy main street with all the people, cars, sights and sounds of a city.

Now, back to our home...

The interior space is decked out with a full size memory foam bunk bed (2 beds) in the first room; one queen size memory foam bed w/ optional baby playpen, a work desk and flat screen smart TV in the second room; and a queen size Article sofa bed in the living room. The optimal number of guests is 6 but we can accommodate more of the little ones if they’re willing to pile up ;)

In the spacious open concept kitchen you’ll discover stainless steel appliances and lots of items to tinker with - pots, pans, plates, cups, silverware, toaster, teapot and more. Start your day with a cup of joe from our delicious Keurig, and end it with the perfect adult nightcap, a cocktail at the bar cabinet.

The living room features a comfy sofa, plush blankets and pillows with a splash of greenery. Snuggle up while you Netflix and chill, watching the 55” flat screen smart TV equipped with a range of apps to log into.

The modern comforts continue with additional amenities like a high speed internet, a full size bathroom, laundry room w/ washer/dryer, iron and ironing board, hair blow dryer, mini personal sized shampoo/conditioner/bodywash, family board games, and a portable Bluetooth speaker. You'll also have access to the shared backyard featuring a charcoal bbq grill, dining table, outdoor seating around a fire pit and string lighting.

*Special Update*
We have a fun + useful amenity available for rental! If you're headed to the coast while here you may want the Beach Day Kit. Checkout the photos in our listing, with more details sent once your stay is booked.

PLEASE NOTE:
There's an onsite driveway with space available for (1) vehicle. It is tandem parking that's shared with the duplex neighbor, so you may occationally have to let one another out of the driveway. In addition, there is street parking all around however availability of the closest spots will vary depending on the time and what's happening in the area.

This property is on a busy main street so you will hear cars, people walking by, and other city sounds (plus occasionally your duplex neighbors next door) - therefore if you are noise sensitive this may not be the best fit.

That said, your well being is our top priority so the place is outfitted with exterior security cameras ONLY. There are no cameras on the inside.

Plastic ware for plates and cups. No wine glasses or non-plastic plates. Few kitchen supplies. Just the basics. Great back yard. Fire pit and bbq were very good. Mattresses were old.

We had a great stay and plenty of room for our family of 6. The house was well stocked with essentials. The only issue we experienced was parking as the driveway was not available to us and we had to find street parking nearby which wasn’t all that nearby at times. Overall we would come back and stay again.

We had a lovely time getting together with family at this rental! It was centrally located within 30 minutes of all of the activities we had planned for this trip in town and near Redondo Beach and Disney. The decor was modern and inviting and our kids loved the chalk wall! We had all the supplies we needed, and we highly recommend adding the beach day kit to your rental! Beds and couches were comfortable, and our host was friendly and communicative. I’ll recommend this rental to anyone coming to Long Beach!

This home has such a clean welcoming feel and our family loved it! The decor was light and airy. All the details guests are looking for were considered. Water bottles, snacks, laundry detergent, and even a fun chalkboard wall with a welcome message was displayed as we arrived. We would definitely book again if we return to the area.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The property was clean and the space suited our family. The back yard is super cute and spacious. We arrived really late at night and parking was an issue, but we were able to find parking fine after for the rest of our trip. Neighborhood is ridiculously walkable though. Had we not been there for a gymnastic meet, we peobably wouldn't have needed to move our car much. We would stay here again. :)

We had a nice week in Long Beach. The property was clean and quaint. Everything we needed was there, and the outside living area was a bonus! Parking was a problem. We came home three times after dark and on street parking was near impossible to find. We spent over 30 minutes each night looking for a space and each time had to walk over .5 mile to get to the home. Overall a good stay, but I will do more research next time.

Let me first start by saying, the experience was great. The vacation rental has a perfect mix of modern and traditional decor with & beachy feel. Super clean and comfortable with all the amenities of your own home. The washer and dryer came in handy this weekend. The host was amazing! Anytime we needed anything, they responded to inquiries within a couple minutes. They were even sweet enough to provide a complementary gift basket for the holidays and super cute Christmas tree and holiday decorations. The location was amazing, the best price and place for the money. We got to our Disneyland destination for Christmas within 20 minutes. And for the price, we were only a couple minute walk to the beach. Best decision ever! We loved the fire pit in the backyard - my kids thouroughly enjoyed roasting marshmallows and making smores. I will definitely be making it a point to stay here again. Thank you again for the amazing stay!

The house was great overall, very comfortable and definitely family friendly. We have a crawler so if I was to point any room for improvement it would be the cleanliness of the floors, her clothes turned black at the knees but thats just constructive criticism! However everything else was amazing! Lots of details down to the shampoo and shaving kits in the bathroom all the way to kid snacks left out for us. The house is located on a busy street but once in the house the noise isn't bad. Parking was a bit of an issue, you can find it but because it is a busy street its not as easy. Mondays theres no parking on the road of the house from 5am-8am so that also made it hard. You have to be patient, and have luck on some days when it comes to parking but its always the case with public parking I think. All things considering we loved our stay and would definitely stay there again!!! ❤️
