I was born and raised in sunny Southern California and will never tire of the West Coast, although I spent several years living in Southeast Asia, about as far from California as you can get. Wherever I am in the world, I love straying from the beaten path, experiencing local life, and discovering hidden gems - camera in hand. The beach is my happy place and when I am not there (or writing), you will usually find me baking, watching movies, and cuddling my pugs. I have traveled around the country and around the world, and it never, ever gets old. Being able to combine my passion for travel and my love of writing is nothing short of a dream.
As local travel experts, we know what travelers are looking for when it comes to finding the perfect accommodations for their next trip. To compile our lists, we scour the internet to find properties with excellent ratings and reviews, desirable amenities, nearby attractions, and that something special that makes a destination worthy of traveling for.
Are you dreaming of a relaxing getaway for two? How about a private little place where you feel all alone but that is also close to the beach, restaurants, and plenty of things to do? Have you been looking for one of the most highly-rated places to stay in Southern California that won’t cost a fortune? As it happens, we have just such a place – a lovely vacation home rental near Redondo Beach, California.
One thing that makes this little private beach cottage special is the feeling of seclusion. The property sits above the street and the cottage is set at the rear of the property, separated from the main home by a large two-car garage and a pretty landscaped yard.
The cottage’s position allows it to enjoy ocean breezes, colorful skies at sunset, and genuine privacy.
The cottage entrance is on the side, so you can leave the door open when the weather is good (as it almost always is on the SoCal coast!), and you can take advantage of the little private outdoor space in front for morning coffee or a little wine and charcuterie evening.
Inside, the adorable home feels larger than expected! The open floor plan is the epitome of making the absolute most of a small space. With a fully open kitchen, hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings, and lots of windows, the airy space is effortless and relaxing.
The portable air conditioner is ready for guest use if the weather gets a bit too warm, and it can be removed for a little extra space if it isn’t needed.

The living room, which also has a cute dining table for two, features comfortable furniture, tasteful decor, lots of natural light, and a smart TV. Open up the windows and let the ocean breezes in while you dine or relax, or curl up with a throw blanket and pillows for a late-night movie.
If you choose to stay in for a meal, coffee, tea, or a quick smoothie to take to the beach, the kitchen is nicely equipped with all the comforts and conveniences of home.
This sweet cottage is just a block and a half from the beach, easily walkable, whether you want to catch a beach sunrise or sunset, go for a long walk or a swim, or just spend the day lounging in the sun.
The famous Redondo Pier is nearby, with its shops and restaurants worth exploring. If you love seafood, this is a fabulous place to enjoy amazing fresh fish and other ocean delights.
For an affordable stay, wonderful privacy, proximity to the beach, and more, this darling cottage is ideal. If you are thinking about a little getaway in the Los Angeles area, would you consider staying here? For more details, availability, and reservations, head over to the cottage listing on Vrbo.
