About this property
The Zen House with Panoramic Harbor, Ocean & 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.

Everything was perfect. First time To California, the view was great the neighborhood was nice and quiet.
Close to the Catalina ferry and close enough to Disney.
Very beautiful harbor views. Perfect location . Close to restaurants and grocery stores and local attractions. Very spacious.
Loved having a home away from home to be together with family!
The Zen House is a beautiful place. The location is great, everything you need is close. The neighborhood is clean. The view of the harbor is amazing at all times of the day.The kitchen is fully stocked for cooking and grilling.There is lots of space with comfortable furnishings and the decor helps set a relaxing stay.Highly recommend and would definitely stay again.
From the minute you walk in you’re facing a spectacular view! The deck is enormous with lovely sitting areas and at night the patio lights come on automatically. The house itself is warm and relaxing. I did have to contact the owner and she responded immediately! I would definitely recommend this listing!
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.
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!
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!
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 ❤️
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!
The view is amazing. It the first thing you see and fall in love with the house. The host of the house also was amazing she was always available with any questions or concerns. It’s a very lovely property.
Thelma was very responsive and friendly, the house is fantastic. Peaceful landscaping and decor, comfortable beds, plentiful amenities including spices for cooking, extra pillows and incredible daytime and nighttime views. The sun rises OVER THE OCEAN, y'all!! We celebrated Christmas and a 60th birthday with the dearest friends and family and would be delighted to return to this great house. Thank you, Thelma!
The home is very nicely decorated and spacious. The deck is large and has great seating to eat outside and enjoy the views. All the gardens that you can see from the bedrooms were a very nice touch. I wish we had more time to stay and relax. Our group was in town for a wedding out on the Palos Verdes Peninsula and if you stay here make sure to explore the area. It’s also a great location if you plan to do any activities in the Long Beach Harbor area.
The Zen house was a welcome reprieve for our staff after a busy two day work event. We appreciated the endless views, location, and amenities. We ate dinner on the deck and watched a large owl hooting to its partner. The next night watched the clouds turn pink during sunset and then light up in a thundertorm .
What a peaceful, beautiful setting. Everything we needed was supplied. Astounding view of the harbor, and a what a cool surpise to see and hear the peacocks that roam the neighborhood.
