3625O - Lev Beach House at Hollywood Beach

This property is a good choice if children and / or pups are joining you! Remax Gold Coast was AMAZING! A special shout out to Courtney who was extremely helpful and went way above and beyond with getting us into the rental a bit early, dealing with maintenance issues rapidly (several burned out lightbulbs) and she even had Nothing Bundt Cakes delivered for our birthday celebration! Some things to know before renting: the small house shown next door is gone and a huge three story home is still in the process of being built..there is construction noise, some sharp debris( the workers are trying hard but it is a construction site), and the scaffolding impairs the view south. The carpets are worn but with kids and/ or pups that’s no big deal. That said, the location right on the beach is lovely! The house is very well equipped with kitchen, appliance, beach toys and a plethora of towels. The beds were comfortable, and the patio off the master bedroom terrific. Once the construction is completed, I’d rent this home again. Until then I can’t recommend this property. I do recommend finding another through Remax Gold Coast!

A great week at the beach for our three generation family. Great location. Comfortable house. Outstanding service by the property management team. Five stars all around.

We had a wonderful family vacation on Hollywood beach. The home has amazing ocean views from all 3 floors. The house is spacious and beautiful. It sits in a quiet neighborhood in walking distance to shops and restaurants. The garage is full of bikes, kayaks, boogie boards, sand toys, and a cool kite. Everything you need to enjoy the beach. Loved our time here.

Manager's Response

Overall enjoyed our stay and was satisfied but felt a bit disappointed at the same time. House needs a major TLC, many things don't work. Main problem was the construction next door with loud banging on Friday (was not notified prior to booking). Upstairs fireplace did not work, steam room, did not work. We feel that we paid too much for what we got. Location is probably one of the best on the beach.

We really enjoyed our stay at this home. The location is everything... except the construction next door. It did nnot bother us as we were there mainly on the weekend. However, during the week it would have been annoying. Upstairs bed is not very comfortable and the bedding is old. Kitchen was stocked with spices, etc. And the garage had a ton of outdoor equipment.

Manager's Response

We waited to write this negative review in hopes we would hear back from the company after we sent an email of concern. It has been a couple months and we’ve heard nothing, so.... Yes, beautiful home and incredible setting! It doesn’t get any better. But to not be warned of the construction 10 feet away is asinine. There was construction on Friday, which is to be expected, and the noise wasn’t terrible. But construction also occurred Saturday from approximately 8 AM - 4 PM. We couldn’t enjoy our day and ended up leaving for most of the day missing the incredible beach time. A warning, a heads-up, a discount, a response...anything would have been appreciated. We have never left a negative review. We’ve rented from this company a few times and had wonderful experiences. Truly disappointing. We are in the construction business, and based on what we witnessed, the construction on this home will be at least another year.

Lived up to its description. We really enjoyed our stay.

I would like to start out saying ReMax was very professional and helpful with all of our issues and requests regarding our stay at Lev's. I would say that the homeowner's are not as accommodating. We had several issues which were brought up to the homeowners and they were seemingly unwilling to discuss or fix any of the problems with their rental property. The house and location are lovely. The living space opens to a beautiful view of the ocean. As a rental however the mattresses, bedding and towels are dated and very used. The kitchen is unequipped for cooking with old pots and pans. They do not supply napkins, foil or containers to store food. These were not things we thought we needed to bring as all our other rentals supplied these items. They had oil in the cabinet dated 2017 (it is 2021) and if you are going to cook as we did, I would suggest you supply all your spices to make sure they are fresh. The downstairs patio has a table, but no chairs which makes outdoor dining impossible. The upstairs master patio is lovely, but they don't have any umbrellas and it can get hot in the sun. We love renting in Oxnard and have with ReMax since 2015. This is the first home rental where we felt a need to tell others our negative experience. It would take minimal effort and cost for the homeowners to update their bedding and kitchen to make the stay worth the price. ReMax even suggested to the owners to supply us with mattress toppers for our stay and they said no. We love ReMax and Oxnard and will be back again in another home for our annual trip to the beach.

Perfect location. Well appointed, lovely home. Walk right onto beach. Easy walk to restaurants, shops and the harbor. This was simply the perfect weekend, family getaway.

Manager's Response

Came here with my husband and our 16 year old son. The house was wonderful, clean, and quiet. Love falling asleep listening to the waves at night. Master suite third floor is really nice. We practically had the beach to ourselves. My son brought his surfboard, got some waves. Breakfast place walking distance from the house was great. Kitchen was clean. Plenty of toys in garage but we did not use them. Glad that there was a bottle of mineral spirits in garage, which I used to remove tar I stepped in on the beach. Came right off. I would highly recommend if you are looking for a breathtaking view and beach house.

Manager's Response

Good experience. None of the TVs worked. 8 remotes

Manager's Response

Very please with the home and it's layout and location. The main level has gorgeous views of the ocean and an open room floor plan that was very spacious and comfortable. The master bedroom/bath is very big and has a nice deck with more breathtaking views of the ocean. The home was clean and had everything we needed. I spoke to the property management a few times before arrival and they were always very polite and professional. It was a fun, relaxing vacation for the entire family.

Manager's Response

Was very nice .Accommodation amazing.

Manager's Response

We arrived at the beach house and I was a bit disappointed. It didn’t appear to be as clean as it should've been, the hot water wasn’t working and there was an issue with one of the blinds in the living room, disrupting the gorgeous ocean view. We immediately called the after hours number and they had a plumber out within the hour and fixed the issue.
Early the next morning, Shawna from remax called to apologize and wanted to send the cleaning crew back right away and for someone to fix the shades.
I thanked her and let her know we had taken care of those things.
We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the house/beach/area immensely.
I again heard from Shawna and due to the house not being up to standards upon our arrival, she waived the cleaning fee and gave us an extra two hours to vacate at the end of our vacation, which was so so helpful.
We would DEFINITELY return to this lovely house again and I was very pleased at the quick response from Remax, specifically Shawna.
Thanks again till next time.

Manager's Response

Great location, breach in front of the house is pretty long so be repaired to walk a little ways. House in general was in pretty good shape. Most of the appliances, kitchenware, beach stuff and patio furniture was extremely outdated, rusted or damaged. A little bit of money and this could be a lot better. We had a blast though and was perfect for kids. We didn’t want anything too nice anyway. Staff at Remax was super cool and helpful for any issues we had and would totally recommend this place/them for another vacation!!

Manager's Response

Perfect location and gorgeous house. I would go again at any time and refer to all my friends

Manager's Response

Fabulous three story house, has all amenities, garage has bikes, beach toys, etc. Loved the balconies and stepping out on to the sand. Enjoyed our morning walks to a local coffee shop off Harbor Blvd and of course Topper's Pizza. I have just two points to share:

1. The third floor balcony fireplace was tied closed and looked like it was not functioning. Will that be fixed in the future? That photo played a huge part in our choice of this house.

2. The clear window above the wet bar in the third floor master does not allow any privacy in the bathroom from others using the room or the balcony.

All in all my family and I had a wonderful time and we are looking forward to another visit this year.

Manager's Response

We had a wonderful family weekend. The views were beautiful! Nice quiet beach. The house was extremely clean. It had everything we needed, and kitchen was well stocked. When we arrived there was a problem with the water heater. I called the rental office, they sent a plumber out and the problem was fixed very quickly. The staff at Remax were amazing to work with from beginning to end. The kids used the boggie boards and had a fun at the beach. The only draw back would be that 2 beds downstairs were a little hard, which a mattress topper could fix that. Otherwise its an amazing house! We would definitely recommend it!!!

Manager's Response

Love the location and house. Perfect to the beach.

Only downside was that some of the kitchen utensils like pots and pans were in really horrible condition. Wish we brought our own..

Really happy with our stay. There are a few improvements to the house which are necessary.
The trundle bed mattress is too squeaky and springy. We had to put mattress on floor. The
queen bed also too springy and feels like it will break. The upstairs patio furniture is ripped.
The garage should be cleaned out. There are broken things in there, bikes are filthy and may need air, the wetsuit has a hole in it. The
grill on the stove does not work. The carpets
are pretty dirty.

Gorgeous home... wonderful items to cook your meals.Clean. Well furnished. LOVE the couch and swivel chairs in the living room... to see the excellent view. We only booked a weekend away with friends and we felt like we went on a weeks vacation!!! hated to leave.. you will love it!!!

Our second time back at this house. It's always exactly what we need: spacious, clean, well taken care of, and right on the sand.

There were a few minor issues initially. The refrigerator wasn't working and there was a problem setting up the WiFi, but both were resolved in a timely manner. The house is "lived in" so there are a few broken items here and there, but nothing that limited our vacation. One of the shower controls was broken so the water kept going too hot. I'm sure they will look into fixing that. The location of the house is perfect, and overall we would highly recommend this rental house. Note: Be ready to do some significant clean-up post stay.

Excellent house that had everything you could need. Annoying neighbors unfortunately that called the fire department as soon as we lit our BBQ coals around 6:00pm for dinner. Otherwise great!

It was great. We were very satisfied with the house and the location.

Manager's Response

3 story, 4 bedroom beach house was great for a thanksgiving week with 13 family members. Good shared space, plenty of bathrooms and direct access to gorgeous beach

We had a small work retreat with a team of 12. This was the perfect location. There were enough bathrooms for all and the open space was really conducive to teamwork and discussion.

I have been renting homes in the Oxnard area for about 3 years now and this has been the nicest plac I have gotten yet! Re/max was a great realtor and easy to deal with. A few pieces of constructive criticism I could give was to place more trash cans throughout the house like in the master bedroom/bathroom area and a few other areas. The icemaker in the refrigerator also needs to be repaired

This is a lovely beach house! We loved the layout, the location, and the accomodations. They provided everything we needed for a memorable stay. There were minor issues with the fridge and some furniture and items in disrepair but the fridge was taken care of and did not hamper our fun. They took note and I'm sure things will be in good condition for the next renter.

They have an abundance of beach toys, towels, utensils, etc. Almost everything you'll need for a fun vacation!

The home was amazing. It exceed our expectations. There were however, so maintenance issues. The refrigerator/freezer did not work and leaked water. Aside from that the house was large enough for 2 families with amazing views.

Wonderful Beach home for the family, adults and grandkids enjoyed the on the beach location equally. Perfect weather, distance to the water, uncluttered beach for our 3 grandkids to play safely. Location Location really is everything!

Several issues we did bring to Andreas attention. Refrigerator in the kitchen needs repair plus the freezer and other two in the home, unable to make ice cubes or even keep food frozen. Kitchen cooking utensils need to be replaced, rather worn. Master bedroom bottom sheet was torn, didnt housekeeping see that?

Planning next years week vacation with Andrea soon, she was very helpful and easy to work with.

Sunny afternoons on an uncrowded beach with marina next door. Hard to beat a vacation like this. Family gatherings in the evenings in a home with lots of room and a beautiful view.

The house was wonderful the customer service prior to check out was excellent. The service after check out was very disappointing by Ms. Andrea McGreevy. Under any circumstance no matter what the situation no representive for any company should ever talk to anyone the way she did. If million dollar houses is something she is renting I can suggest she take the Forbes training and address potential guests in a positive manner.

Manager's Response

The location is wonderful. Phone reception is really bad. we had asked if there was an iron at the house. Come to find out we just had a box. We moved the large couch back a little bit and underneath it or crackers, dirt, hair, excetera. A lot of the dishes that were in the cupboard and silverware or dirty and had to be hand washed. The vase in the master bedroom was broken. I tried to call you guys many times but you guys couldn't hear me. We only got through once and that was to get the internet code. Outside on the third deck under and around the couches was very dirty. The glass door on the outside patio was removed. Chair in the master bedroom on the ledge if you moved the ottoman the dog was not glued and it came apart. It goes back together easily but it really needs to be glued. the house worked out well for us but these things should have been taken care of before we rented it for so much money. There were spots on the cushions and the master bedroom and scratches on the wood or plastic on the back of the couches in the family room.

Early check out (10am) and list of things to accomplish a bit of a challenge. Windows were not clean - called 2x to get it done. Smoke detector set off - we took it down after attempt to stop with batteries by property management company was unsuccessful. Wiring a bit weird. Recommend with understanding it needs updating.

Ourfamily had a fantastic beach stay. However, the ocean facing windows and glass doors were not clean.
Mgt co did not clean windows until our third day. Blackout shades did not work. many serving pieces were cracked/ chipped. 1st level patio lounges were totally cracked and uncomfortable.
Thank you.

Manager's Response

Great house in a great location. Towels and soaps available was a nice touch. Family guest were in awe of the house. The only issue was the property management losing deposit check and having to go to Ventura a couple of times to main office.

Manager's Response

The property was perfect for our family and extended family vacation. We ranged in age from 3 to 60 and the home, view, and proximity to the ocean was amazing in every way. This property offers a serene setting. The beach was never crowded. The lifeguards were attentive. And there was walking access to coffee shops and restaurants. Highly recommend this home.

Great family vacation home. Enjoyed the direct beach access, as well as being close to the marina/fishing

The house was try nice but there was a major problem and that was that one of the bedrooms may as well not have even existed. Somebody should try to sleep on the sofa pull out bed and decide if they would want to spend the night on that on a vacation, no less. Therefore, we didn't have enough room for our kids to sleep, they had to drive all the way home to sleep. They worked in the morning and needed to get real sleep. Also, not enough trash bins, This was a house for 12 and we had the garbage of twelve and nowhere to put it. I only read at the last minute on page 15 that we had to wash all towels and strip beds. I've never had to do that on a vacation so it kind of threw off our last morning and night. There were to enough bikes, but the nice staff brought some over. Also, mot nearly enough beach chairs, places to sit and hang out outside. Everything really was not a big deal except the terrible sleeping situation in the downstairs bedroom.

Manager's Response

The house was very spacious and the wall of windows were beautiful. We immediately had to contact the management company because the sofa sleeper was broken and the next day they replaced it with a futon from another property. We expected another sofa sleeper, little disappointing. The trundle bed in another bedroom would not raise up and fortunately family was ok with sleeping with it like that. The two futons were too small for two people each and some family members slept on pads in the living room. We wished we could utilize the fireplace on the upper deck, but was unable to find the gas line. It would have made the upper deck more usable with some extra heat. We enjoyed utilizing the bikes, games, books and kayaks provided in the home.

Manager's Response

Everything was in good shape and worked fine. The house was on the beach and made it so we could see everyone playing.

20 years of friendship, million dollar property weekend getaway, equals priceless memories!!! My friends, family and I fell in love with the property and location immediately.

Manager's Response

Really nice house in a wonderful location to beach and harbor with spectacular views. The top floor balcony is wonderful with a great sitting area. We had a few maintenance issues initially but management company resolved them quickly.

My family really enjoyed staying at the beach house. The weather was great and we had a great time on the beach. The only negative issues we had was that there was only one beach chair, the fridge wouldn't cool the first day and had to be repaired and the glass door leading to the beach gets stuck and takes some realuavle to open. All minor issues that didn't ruin our trip.

house was lovely had a huge ant problem in the kitchen could use outdoor patio furniture lots of beach toys in the garage to use plenty of towels and bedding available

We enjoyed our holidays in this great house. It was wonderful. Great view, great and quite beach!
We missed just a few little things:More (wine)glasses and plates for our big groupe!

OVERALL PRETTY GOOD. HAD LOTS OF ANTS TO DEAL WITH AND MANY OF THE LIGHTS INSIDE THE HOSE WERE BURNT OUT.. OTHERWISE, VERY NICE.

The management staff was very friendly and helpful. The house exceeded our expectations and was fabulous! The only problem we had was trying to figure out which light switch operated which light; there were so many switches that it was very confusing. Regarding the general condition - the dining room chairs were in very poor shape. Tape was used on the chairs, and there was also tape in the stairway. I would have expected things to be in better condition. Also, there was no salt and pepper in the house, which we expected to find. But that's really minor!

The house was amazing, the location was amazing and the overall vacation was amazing! Everything exceeded my expectations and I can't wait to stay here again. I've recommended this house and VRBO to everyone I know!!

This was one of the best spring breaks we've ever had! The house was beautiful and you couldn't beat the location. We practically had the beach to ourselves the entire week. The sun deck connected to the master bedroom was amazing - a perfect getaway from the kids down below. We can't wait to come back!

Property is in great location, but when we arrived the place had a toxic odour throughout, likely due to vinyl blinds being exposed to sun all winter. The remote control for the blinds covering the front windows were broken and the blinds were partially drawn which obstructed the full ocean view. None of the fireplaces were in working order. Light bulbs were burned out in kitchen. Living room was a little dusty. By the way, the bikes are all children's bikes - non for adults. We brought these and a few other issues to the attention of the property manager when we checked in on the Monday, but they could do nothing about the blinds. Overall, for the price, I would have expected the place to be much better maintained.

We had a great time in this beach house. Thank you!

My stay was absolutely incredible. Whales swimming by, beautiful sunset, beautiful beach, beautiful house. The house had a couple minor problems, a door lock didn't work, the sauna shower did not work, the blinds remotes and tv remotes had no instructions, and the outdoor fireplace didn't work. It did not ruin my stay though. Best weekend ever.

Manager's Response

We loved the house and it was perfect for our group. The location was incredible and the layout of the house was ideal. The only complaint we had was a lack of stock of trash bags and washing detergent. The rental company was prompt in responding to the trash bag issue, and for that we were very thankful. One of the checkout procedures included washing the towels, which we were happy to do, but there was no laundry detergent, which probably made things more difficult for the cleaning crew. We were concerned that this could effect our security deposit, but we were relieved when the rental company assured us that it wouldn't. Perhaps a little more attention to the stocking of essential items on the part of the rental company would be an easy fix for the enjoyment of future renters.

Manager's Response

A beautiful home without question! Combine the amazing view with an absolutely perfectly arranged living space and you have the makings of a great get away. We were extremely pleased on every level- just what we were looking for!

Manager's Response

We stayed here for Christmas and enjoyed being right on the beach. It is such a beautiful home with beautiful views, the photos don't do it justice! The guidelines require renters to wash and dry all the towels though, so you need to leave extra time for that. The whole morning of our last day was spent packing up and washing towels. Most rental places don't require that. Also be aware that although the contract listed different check out times for summer(10am) and winter(12pm), the agent required us to check out at 10am, despite what the contract said in writing. So in that respect, I wasn't happy with the RE/MAX agency. The home, however, was all that we hoped for, for our family gathering.

The photos did not do this property justice. It is a beautiful, comfortable, classy place with an amazing view. The location is quiet but not to far from restaurants and shopping. We had a group of 3 adults and 8 teenage girls and everyone loved the place.

We rented this property for my wife's 40 th birthday and we had a great time. The four bedrooms makes it extremely spacious and the master suite is amazing. We had a few hiccups with a couple of items but the property management company was very responsive to our needs. We would recommend this property to others.
