8/10
This lovely property is elevated at the highest point in the Dos Rios section of Mar Vista. Although this affords stunning views & sunsets, it does make it difficult to walk anywhere from the Villa. Prepare to chill and relax & you'll have a fab time with family. We are 11 adults and 2 babies--note: each unit is nicely appointed, but neither really had a kitchen large enough to accomodate all of the guests. As well, the dining-room table has two benches instead of chairs so it was not comfortable to have prolonged meals there. A second dish washer is needed in the main house. CoffeeMakers not great quality.
We did have an issue and ran out of water one night. The Mar Vista Concierge service were very responsive and the water problem was remedied after about 6 hours but it did cause us some stress. Lastly, although the concierge, Alexa, was very nice, we were very disappointed on our last day when, instead of a pre-ordered Sprinter arrived to take us back at the airport, we were assigned two broken down vans. The luggage had to be tied to the roof of one with a piece of string, and the drivers were distracted. This Villa did fall short of a 5 star ranking due to the water prob, the cooks (who left a mess and seemed in a rush) and the poor transportation. All in all, we are grateful to have had a safe and fun trip filled with special memories. This Villa lived up to this goal & that is what counts most.
