Excellent communication, squeaky clean place, felt like a home. Heated pool was pristine.
Shawn’s place was amazing for our trip. We needed a place close by Universal City and other surrounding attractions. It felt peaceful, and the neighborhood was very quiet. We all enjoyed cooking and relaxing around the pool. Beds are very comfortable. Bedding and towels provided were also a plus for our group. The provided amenities were satisfying and appreciated.
My family of 5 had a great weeklong stay at Shawn’s place! Great size with room for everyone to spread out, and great south SFV location. Lovely big yard with nice pool, well-appointed kitchen, and easy garage and street parking. Everyone agreed the beds were very comfortable as well. 10/10 recommend to anyone looking to stay in the area! Excellent communication by Shawn and his team as well - thank you!
We enjoyed our stay at Shawn's place during Thanksgiving week. The location was close to all the main LA attractions - all within 30 minutes drive depending on traffic. The house comfortably accommodated a large family group - we had up to 15 people. The pool is large and the backyard is nice for hanging out. Shawn and his team were extremely responsive when we had some niggling issues- they were all resolved expeditiously.
Beautiful house and Shawn an his team were awesome. Prompt communication , very welcoming and friendly host. Will definitely be staying at Shawn's place next time I am in town.
Shawn and his team were always very responsive night or day. Easy off street parking. My husband and I enjoyed early morning walks through the neighborhood and to Ventura Blvd, where you can find great shops, restaurants, and cafés! Trader Joe’s was a three minute drive, which was great!
Great place, fully equipped and centrally located to many L.A. attractions! Host and his staff were readily available and responsive to any requests!!
Great place Shawn is always checking to make sure everything is perfect great host
The house is very beautiful. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely book it again.
Shawn and his team were very quick to respond to my questions. The kitchen was fully stocked to prepare a home cooked meal for my family, which is very important to me. I was very pleased with the space, and hope it’s available when I return to the area. Thank you Shawn and team!!!!
We loved the attention, they were super attentive to us all the time. thank you so much 😊
Shawn and his team were on top of everything. They were quick to respond to any messages and communicated with us throughout our stay. This is a great stay only 25 minutes away from universal studios and has lots of shopping centers nearby. I’d definitely stay here again.
Shawn & his team are all around amazing. Very understanding, fast & reliable. They also provided a bunch of recommendations which we enjoyed. The house was beautiful & peaceful, clean & they give you your privacy! Even if your not staying in San Fernando valley, it’s the perfect place for anywhere you are headed! Highly recommended & we will be renting from his team again. All around great stay!
Went above and beyond. I’ll always book this Airbnb when I’m back in California ! Thanks Shawn !
Shawn was great!! And the place was super sweet because it was located on a quiet street, near a large park and private. Also had coffee and laundry detergent, which came in handy. I rated 4 overall only because there were a few maintenance issues that need to be addressed and I will message host re same. I would stay again.
Sean's place was clean and nicely setup with everything you need. Quick drive to Topanga State Park and Universal Studios. For us it was a great stay and we had plenty of space for all of us.
הכל היה מצוין, מהתקשורת לפני ההגעה לבית ועד הצ'ק אאוט, הבית ענה על הציפיות, נראה טוב ומאוד נעים ומזמין. ממליצה מאוד!
Communication with Shawn’s team was excellent! The house was very clean, we didn’t have any issues during our stay. Thank you
This was a great experience. The host was very thoughtful and considerate of taking every step to make our experience feel special and welcoming. Good location in a good neighborhood. Great layout for multiple family trip. Everything worked well, was in good order and clean. This was a great value and we would highly recommend.
Todo inpecable. Muy buena comunicación con el anfitrión siempre respondió inmediatamente. El grupo quedo muy contento. Regresaríamos cuando fuera necesario. Muy recomendable
We had a great time at Shawn’s place. It was the perfect location and we loved the backyard/pool area.
Family and I enjoy our vacation , the place was very convenience , very close to Trader Joe’s , universal estudios, other yummy restaurants . My kids became mermaids ! With very refresh pool ! Definitely we would like to come back again ! :)
We had an awesome time staying here! Shawn and his team were so good about communicating before and during our stay. The location was perfect and the neighborhood was very peaceful. :) The house felt so homey. The pool was our favorite perfect for adults! Definitely hope to return soon!
Pool, Satellite TV with movie and sports channels, 2 bathrooms, and easy access to the freeway. Communication was great from Shawn and team.
This listing was perfect for our group traveling to universal studios. Ample parking for our 2 vehicles, kitchen was stocked with good cookware, great value for the spacious indoor and outdoor accommodations. I highly recommend this property.
Thank you Shawn for a stay to remember. Our family getaway to Universal was close in hand and the house came with everything we needed and more..Thanks again The Waas Family
Shawn’s place was a great house for my friends & myself. It was my first time staying in that area of LA & loved it. Will definitely book again my next time in LA!
we had a blast and enjoyed the pool and house. the swing was a plus for my kids! we grilled almost everyday. there was a lot mosquitos though and laundry room was kinda small but it was a blast and I highly recommend for families. also host was super responsive and friendly. great houses to see in the neighborhood and walk with your kids
Great place for vacation, location had great restaurants nearby and the kids loved the swimming pool. Clean and spacious place we had a great time while staying here. Shawn communication was great very helpful and genuinely cared about how we were doing and if we needed anything.
