“Better than what we could have asked for....”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 11, 2013

We looked at this place over and over again while on a road trip and finally booked it as we neared the California Coast. What a find. The house is beautiful, Richard and Susan are the nicest hosts you can ask for and the location (and price) is amazing. We stayed in the Blue room and it was perfect for my husband, our three year old and myself. The bathroom down the hall is small but clean and private. We never ate breakfast because our brother was a mile away and we were with him every morning, but the offer was there and the coffee was always ready. The neighborhood is quiet and a very close walk to downtown Redondo or the beach. If you are looking for a place to stay in this area and do not want a gross, overpriced hotel and enjoy the friendly atmosphere of a well run B&B then you can do no wrong if you chose this lovely home. We did peak at the Mocha room and it was bright and nice looking. The Yellow room downstairs was also lovely with a private entrance.

“Don't miss this neighborhood gem!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 6, 2013

If your looking for an affordable and quite B&B in Redondo Beach look no further. My husband and I stayed here with my parents and we LOVED it. The owners Richard and Susan welcomed us into their beautiful home. They have done a wonderful job decorating the house to make you feel at home. They had a wonderful pancake breakfast waiting for us in the morning.

Room Tip: The downstairs bedroom has a mini kitchen, newly remodeled bathroom and a door to a nice relaxing ba...

“Fantastic B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed June 18, 2012 via mobile

We stayed for two nights in the Yellow Room at By The Beach B&B. Richard and Susan were lovely hosts and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The house is a short stroll from Redondo Beach and only 10 miles from LAX. Breakfast was plentiful and varied. All in all we we're very happy with our stay and would be keen to stay again.
