Life in L.A. Los Angeles , California

Holiday Rental Description

Live like a true LA local in this sleek and modern apartment located in the Lafayette Square neighbourhood. Ideal for work or pleasure, this home is within a short driving distance of the cultural sights and sounds of Los Angeles. Whether you want to walk the hiking trails of Griffith Park or shop the boutiques of West Hollywood, you'll be in an idyllic central spot to do so.

Inside, it's immediately clear that it's been designed by someone with an eye for minimalism – there are cooling white tones, pared-back furnishings and a sense of calm. We love the raw-painted fireplace feature in the living room and the plump sofa – perfect for lounging out after a day at Venice Beach (a twenty-minute drive away). There's a dynamic kitchen making cooking at home a breeze, and a rooftop terrace from which to enjoy your sundowners.

With some of the most iconic LA destinations within driving distance, you can spend the day shopping on Rodeo Drive (a twenty-minute drive), admiring the contemporary artworks at LACMA (a ten-minute drive), or enjoying Korean barbecue in Koreatown (a ten-minute drive).
