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.
It’s cliché, but I am going to say it anyway (and you probably saw it coming): Good things come in small packages. And when it comes to small, I have a bit of an obsession with tiny homes that pack so much character, functionality, and even luxury in such a compact space. These tiny homes in Southern California have all of that in spades, plus locations that make for a perfect getaway.

What better match for a treehouse-like tiny home than a treehouse-like cafe with stunning canyon views? Between exploring hiking trails, thrift shops, and scenic drives, be sure to catch a delicious brunch at the nearby Cafe on 27.

A tiny home for up to 10 guests?! Yes, indeed. This tiny home mini-resort in the hills of Malibu is actually three tiny homes with a private eternity pool and hot tub, paddle tennis, bocce ball, and stunning views of the Pacific.
