Please feel free to call us ahead of time and get to know us while you are here. Bella - she's our dog and welcoming committee!! You are NOT alone!!
Getting around
LAX with UBER
Uber is a pain - so when you land - take ANY bus to ANY hotel. Tip the bus driver a $1 or $2 then get off at the hotel...and pretend to go inside. Once inside - go to the bathroom...or sit down and get on your phone...then order an uber. To come THERE. This will allow you to do 2 things.
1) NOT pay the extra uber fee from the LAX airport.
2) get here faster. The Uber thing takes a long time!
But SHHHHHHHH....this is secret info okay???
Don't miss
Terranea in Palos Verdes
This is the best place to VISIT. South of us and you need to go there at sunset - so you can see it's beauty. On a cliff -it's THE place to go!! Celebrities stay there. The hotel is $400-600 a night!!
