    The casita was in a wonderful neighborhood and conveniently located. All the special touches is what sets Casita Gundry a part. I stayed with my dog and there was a jar of homemade treats for her and cookies for me!

- Soak away in a vintage clawfoot tub in this historic Spanish-revival guest house with private entry and very private patio ideal for grilling, al fresco meals, sipping drinks, and relaxing with family or friends in a charming setting. Quaint, quiet character and today’s luxury in a restored, private casita. Work trip? Family holiday? If you can manage small spaces, Casita Gundry is a perfect, unique tiny spot to host your SoCal getaway. No booking service fees.
- This cozy and remodeled casita offers a private entrance, quaint full kitchenette, and private patio/yard with grill. It features 500 sq. ft of living space, a restored vintage clawfoot soaker tub with shower combo, AC/heat, walk-in closet, private laundry, and streaming televisions with local channels in each bedroom. All three mattresses are very comfortable. Casita Gundry comfortably sleeps 1 to 3 adults, with a maximum occupancy of 5 guests (max occupancy may feel a bit snug.) Up to 2 pets allowed only with pre-approval from the host. Contactless check-in and accommodations. Using a virtual key, guests are welcome to self-check-in and access the casita’s smart lock through their own mobile phones. However, guests also have the option to be greeted by a host upon arrival. 2 driveway parking spaces (tandem/uncovered) exclusive to guests. There is no dedicated inside eating area. We encourage dining al fresco on the private garden patio. Since neighborhood is residential, there is a 10 pm noise curfew. No smoking. No parties. If any concerns, carefully study floor plan of Casita Gundry provided at time of booking and feel free to reach out to us with questions.
- Five minutes from Long Beach Airport (LGB), Casita Gundry has close highway access and is a perfect spot central to LA and Orange County (and not far from San Diego) for discovering and exploring all of Southern California. Casita Gundry is part of a quiet, residential, historic neighborhood in Long Beach with tree-lined streets and loads of charm. Walking distance to great restaurants and shopping in uptown Bixby Knolls/California Heights historic district of Long Beach. Local points of interest and recommendations can be found in the Casita Gundry Home Manual. But if desired, guests can also reach out to the on-site host (Lars) for neighborhood tips and suggestions. - 15 min. (Beaches, Queen Mary, harbor/cruises, Aquarium of the Pacific, Long Beach Convention Ctr.) - 30 min. (Disneyland, LAX Airport, hiking, Knott's Berry Farm) - 45 min. (Universal Studios, Hollywood, Downtown LA, Santa Monica Pier, John Wayne SNA Airport) - 90 min. (San Diego)
