The Zen House with Panoramic Harbor and City Views

From the moment you enter the property, you’ll feel the Zen. Leave your shoes at the door, walk through the house where panoramic ocean and city views will take your breath away. Relax and watch the sailboats and ships go by, and when the sun goes down, the harbor and city lights will sparkle like jewels below. Each of the 3 bedrooms opens to a tranquil courtyard. Relax on our deck, practice yoga, or bbq. We welcome you to find your Zen high atop San Pedro in the quiet South Shores area, which borders Rancho Palos Verde. We’re a 1.3 mile walk to White Point beach, minutes to 110 Freeway, 5 miles to Long Beach. Minutes from the harbor. A Perfect location if you’re heading out on a fishing trip, sailing to Catalina Island, or going on a cruise.

***Sorry, ABSOLUTELY NO events, gatherings, parties, smoking or vaping. Only TWO parking spaces are available. For your security, we have outdoor cameras***

Priceless View
You'll find yourself just staring out the windows all the time. How could you not? Everywhere you stand you can look out to the view. It is so much better than just an ocean view because there is so much depth, dimension and activity. I loved it!

Great stay
The pictures perfectly represent the property. We especially appreciated how quiet everything was and how fantastic the views are. Can imagine to stay there again, if travel brings us back. Thelma was very responsive and helpful. We had an issue during check-in, which results in the slightly lower rating for that area, everything else was great.

Deserve the praises!
Beautiful view and equally awesome host! I don’t think I have ever been to such well thought out rental home. The telescope and popcorns had won us all over. The location is great and close to grocery stores. We could even hear peacocks one hazy morning! The beds were a bit too soft for us, however all we had decent sleep. Thelma was super prompt in responding and helpful throughout the stay!

Beyond what we'd imagined
We arrived after dark. Check in was easy and the charm and appeal of the house was evident immediately upon opening the front gate. And then we entered the house, and that first glimpse of the view from the wall of windows took our breath away. The view was dynamic and different at every time of day. We were 6 adults in town together for a family wedding and this home suited us perfectly. Location was ideal in a lot of ways. Close to the coast, close enough to the city, a quiet neighborhood with conveniences nearby. It was one of the best equipped VRBO we've ever stayed in: kitchen, bath, linens, laundry/iron, tv/Wi-Fi. Thanks, Thelma, for your hospitality!

Amazing !
Our family of 6 traveled from Reno to Long Beach area for a couple days ! The house was absolutely Beautiful, clean, plenty of room for everyone! We went out the first night and stayed in made spaghetti dinner the second night while the boys had an afternoon of golf at a Trump course ! We sat on the patio and enjoyed wine and the views and let me say I didn’t ever want to leave ! We also walked both days in the neighborhood and all the neighbors were soooo incredibly nice. If I find myself in this area again I will be back to stay in the Zen house !! Thank you so much Thelma for being so awesome! The Schultz Family ❤️

Reunion
So, Once a year friends that grew up in San pedro back in the 70's come from all over the nation to reunite and stop life around us and find a small slice for are self's to check on one another and reconnect. Now we have found the perfect place (we think) we can look down and point at things that remind us of our past, good, bad and mostly just silly. Thelma, we all would like to say a giant 'thank you' for allowing us to sharing in this home of yours. You and this house are 'A' number one with us! There is everything you would need in this house and much,much more. We well be back !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
