Maison de Fleurs... Cottage by the Sea - BOOK NOW for Summer! A/C & GARAGE

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION . . . This lovely cottage centered just off 2nd. St. is in the most desired area of Long Beach - BELMONT SHORE. For those warm summer temps, a "GEM" of a property with A/C as well as a PRIVATE GARAGE. Why not stay where it's an easy five minute walk to all of the nice boutiques, pubs, restaurants, beach and bay? If you're bringing children, your older kids will love the beach on the peninsula with waves or . . . we're also close to the bay where youngsters can sit along the water with sand toys where the water is calm and "wave free". Enjoy water activities close by . . . kayaking, windsurfing, sailing, or just floating around on a raft. Sailors also love our location as we're a 10 minute drive to the Alamitos Bay Yacht Club (ABYC) our property is the perfect location for those out of town Regattas!

The kitchen has it all - french door refrigerator, double oven with convection, 6 burner gas range, dishwasher, microwave and 12 cup coffee maker. If you enjoy cooking outdoors, our new BBQ awaits your grilling expertise! Whether you're enjoying the warmer summer months or the cooler winter season, central heating and air conditioning will keep you feeling comfortable!

We're equipped with high speed internet, FREE WiFi, cable, three flat screen TV's - a 50' flat screen in the ”family” room, “master” bedroom and one in the middle “queen” bedroom. We provide high quality bed linens, towels, and there's no need to bring a blow dryer as we keep two on site..

Take advantage of the coastal air . . . relax, sunbathe or BBQ off the private gated side yard or newly built back yard seating area with daybed. If you're a "people watcher" enjoy the table and chair set out in front under the umbrella during those warmer summer months!

Once you've arrived at Maison de Fleurs cottage, you don’t really need a car to enjoy Belmont Shores, Naples, Belmont Heights, several beaches or parks nearby because you're in close proximity to just about everything on foot. Our property is close... yet just far enough to enjoy a little peace and quiet to read a book or take a nap!

For some of the local activities: Take a tour of the famous Queen Mary, visit the Long Beach Aquarium of the Pacific or if you have time - take the ferry to Catalina island. Go whale watching and most likely you'll get to see some dolphins frolicking alongside the boat. Again, there is quite a large selection of restaurants, bars and boutiques within walking distance. You might enjoy riding a bike or walking along the canals of Naples Island to look at beautiful homes, boats and/or beaches. If you don't feel like walking, consider a gondola ride and relax while you enjoy the scenery by water! Visit the Long Beach Art Museum or our local Performing Art Center.

For your convenience, we have provided a notebook on site with detailed information on restaurants/menus, activities, etc.

**Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farm is a 30 minute drive . . . or take an Uber/Lift and bypass parking fee.

If you're visiting the Long Beach Convention Center, we're a 10 minute drive along the coastline. There’s also an “hourly” bus that will also shuttle you to Shoreline Village a- another area with shops, restaurants and sightseeing.

The property is an easy drive to South Coast Plaza, Huntington Beach's popular 'surf city' or Seal Beach. Look at the map and see how close you are to many of the great destinations Southern California has to offer.

For questions on availability, feel free to call Kelly for any questions you may have!

AIRPORT SUGGESTIONS
(LGB) Long Beach Airport - (15 minutes from property)
(LAX) Los Angeles Inter. Airport (35 minutes from property)
(SNA) Orange County Airport is (30 minutes from property)

Timewise, LGB is much easier getting 'in and out' of than LAX as it's much smaller and very close to our cottage. SNA (also known as John Wayne Airport) is also a smaller airport and located in Orange County. Timeframes can vary depending on the time of day and current traffic conditions.

*********** IMPORTANT NOTES FROM OWNER ***********

'Belmont Shore' is a very unique area and is the most desired destination in Long Beach due to the surrounding shoreline that 'hugs' three sides of this charming community.

********** BOOK WITHIN THE BOUNDARIES OF BELMONT SHORE***********
EAST LIVINGSTON DR. -- BAY SHORE AVE. -- EAST APPIAN WAY -- EAST OCEAN BLVD.

If you desire to be within WALKING distance to all of the shops, restaurants, pubs, and boutiques of 2nd Street, this is the place! The 'downtown' area is NOT considered Belmont Shore. Staying within the true boundaries will allow you to enjoy the area without having to drive and park your vehicle. Enjoy a property that includes the use of our private onsite garage.

As shown on-line, this property is on one level throughout the interior. It does however have a raised front porch as well as raised back porch with three steps upward. It's in a location where bungalows and cottages were built in the early 1920's and is NOT suitable for guests requiring ADA Standards ( "Americans with Disabilities Act") requiring assistance or wheel chair.


***** UPDATED CANCELLATION TERMS *****
Although our listing indicates a "FIRM" cancellation policy, after signing our Standard Rental Contract we want you to be aware that we understand emergencies can happen. If you have the need to cancel your reservation, we will reopen those dates making every effort to rebook them. If we're able to rerent your dates, you will be refunded for those dates less a $100 cancellation fee as well as the service fee VRBO retains. These details are also reflected in our Standard Rental Agreement and want our guests to know THIS ALLOWANCE LEAVES OUR GUESTS WITH MORE FLEXIBILITY than the "FIRM" rental option indicated on our VRBO listing.

********* WITH REGARD TO THE CURRENT COVID SITUATION ******
We are concerned with keeping YOU as well as ourselves and housekeeping healthy! We continue to launder our linens using very hot water and with added bleach to our "solid whites". We also continue to disinfect high touch surfaces to include tables, doorknobs, light switches, countertops, appliances, handles, toilets, bathtub/shower faucets, sinks, exterior keypads, temperature control unit, etc. As it’s impossible to guarantee a COVID free environment unless you're in a medical facility or hospital "clean room", we want you to be aware our property is cleaned BEFORE and AFTER every guests stay. We continue to urge our guests to routinely wash your hands, continue to follow safety guidelines and wear a mask when recommended by our local government officials.

We require our "Standard Rental Contract" to be signed and returned to us upon receipt of all accepted bookings as your "selected dates" are then "blocked off" on line once your deposit has been made. This contract details your payments, dates, etc. etc. per the agreement made through this site. This property is solely managed by the owner of property vs. a management company.

Our favorite rental so far
This house is the most charming ever, and Kelly makes it feel like you are staying at your aunt Sue’s French cottage. From the fresh flowers in the windows to the cozy blankets in the living room, she has thought of everything. The master bed was the comfiest I have ever slept in, and the kitchen had everything. She even stocks bathroom stuff, just in case you forgot it. The location can't be beat and is a 10-minute walk to anything your heart desires. We will be back.

Great property
The location is superb, a short walk to the beach and just a few steps out the front door to restaurants, craft beers, coffee, and dessert! The back patio is private with a beautiful array of plants and hummingbird attracting flowers-so enjoyable just watching them buzz around. The kitchen has just what you need to cook up a fabulous meal-we enjoyed steaks on the grill with some good wine! Our host checked on us to ensure we had what we needed for a memorable stay! The Cottage by the Sea would be a repeat for my family.

Lovely house, in great neighbourhood.
The house was lovely and the location couldn’t have been better. Just around corner from 2nd street which had a large selection of very good restaurants and bars and only 10 minutes walk to beach. We also went to Disney a couple of days which was about a 30 minute drive. Belmont Shore was a lovely area for walking around and the locals were extremely friendly. Kelly could not have been more helpful and definitely the best host we’ve had at any Vrbo rental ( and we’ve had a lot). Highly recommend this place.

This is a gem of a property. Classic Belmont Shore bungalow. Amenities are great, nice quality master bed (King size). Comfortable living. Backyard redesign is wonderful. Evening wine on the front porch and people watching is great. We cooked most of the time but also ate out in the Shore. Morning walks on the beach are wonderful. Very convenient. One of the best places to rent in the shore. Love it.

A cute house in a great location.
I have stayed in the area several times. I will share the good and the things that could possibly be improved. The location is great, right by 2nd street and the beach. The backyard is super cute. The things I would improve are things like only having one wash cloth for 6 days and 5 people. I also would have liked either a Keurig or programmable coffee pot. The other thing to note is none of the bedroom doors have locks and to enter the master bedroom you must either go outside or walk through someone else’s bedroom. There isn’t really any privacy in any of the bedrooms, as they are all close together. We did appreciate Kelly’s communication and having a small garage was nice to avoid having to move a car for street sweeping. The home is decorated very nicely too. Overall the stay was nice, there were just a few minor inconveniences.

Perfect house with gorgeous backyard garden oasis for morning coffee and a lovely front patio for cocktails in the evening. The house decor was just as the pictures show with a designer touch. Loved the house, location right by Second Street and our host, Kelly was a gem! We hope to return soon.

Picked this location due to proximity to LAX and the Beach Picked up family at the airport after a 13 hr flight and rested in Long Beach for 4 nights. Location is very convenient to walk to restaurants and the beach. Garage makes parking a non-issue. Very relaxing back patio for reading books. Excellent outdoor grill. Beds are really comfortable.
