Click to book Sunset View Mansion now: from £5000 per night Imagine a house so extravagant, so wacky, so Hollywood and you still won’t come close to this one-of-a-kind home in the Hollywood Hills. Set over two floors and boasting a spectacular 1,000 square feet of private decking, this mansion takes entertainment to a whole new level. From the giant metallic Popeye statues to the colossal dining table, wall of celebrity portraits and dedicated poker room, there’s a constant carousel of eye-catching ornaments and wow-worthy features that send your eyes pinballing in every direction. The master bedroom with its glass walls that lead out onto the upper deck will make waking up a joy, as will its en suite bathroom with a freestanding tub and spa-like shower. Meanwhile, the outdoor bed backed by a faux jungle and Buddha statues defies even our wildest dreams of bedroom bliss. Speaking of the outside, this is where the home ramps up the fun even more, with an infinity pool and hot tub offering panoramic views of the L.A. skyline and a dry sauna and steam room to turn the heat up on your relaxation. What's more, you have your very own stocked bar to keep the good times flowing. When you’re not grilling up a barbecue feast on the patio or sunning yourself on one of the lower or upper-level decks, make yourself at home in the cinema room where a giant screen and theatre-style chairs wait to give you a true taste of Tinsel Town magic. Sleeps up to 10 | 5 Bedrooms | 6 Bathrooms

Click to book The Edge of Glory now: from £629 per night Perched high up in the Hollywood Hills, this gorgeous home has some of the best views to be found in all of Los Angeles. Head out onto the expansive terrace and you could spend ages just taking in the uninterrupted panorama of the reservoir, the glistening skyscrapers on the horizon and perhaps the most iconic sight of them all, the famous Hollywood sign. This vista can even be enjoyed from the inside thanks to the huge glass windows that line the walls of the property. You'll also find an impressive amount of tech around the interior, from keyless entry and smart home gizmos to top-of-the-range Miele appliances in the kitchen. However, this is one of those addresses where you can be pretty sure that you'll be outside most of the time. Why wouldn't you when there's an invitingly blue swimming pool, plenty of loungers and an alfresco seating area surrounding a fire pit? As well as that, the riches of LA await nearby. You can drive to the Hollywood Bowl or the Runyon Canyon hiking trail in about five minutes, or you can be on Sunset Boulevard in seven. Sleeps up to 8 | 4 Bedrooms | 4 Bathrooms

Click to book Captain Oliver now: from £699 per night Captain Oliver is a classic Hollywood ranch hidden away in the hills. With an Acapulco style saltwater pool and sprawling deck, groups can lounge and swim all day and into the night (thanks to underwater lighting). It might not be the most luxurious home on our books, but it's comfortable and inviting with a super glam exterior. Plus, in just 5 minutes you'll be in the heart of LA - accessible to some of the city's hottest restaurants and attractions. Sleeps up to 6 | 3 Bedrooms | 3 Bathrooms

Click to book Fairy Tale Ending now: from £295 per night Whether you're wandering down the fabled Sunset Strip (an eight-minute drive), taking in the upscale delights of Beverly Hills (a sixteen-minute drive) or spending blissful days soaking up the LA sun – Santa Monica Beach is a half-an-hour taxi ride away – this enviable spot will have you experiencing the celebrity hideaway of West Hollywood (WeHo to the locals) in all of its glitz and glamour. With so much to see and do around in this larger-than-life destination, we really loved coming back to a quiet and tranquil, small gated community full of cosy cottages and billowing flowers. A world away and yet conveniently located, you'll find a sunny spot to enjoy a good book or wake up gently with a coffee out on your idyllic patio area. Stepping in to look around at the decor, the interior is where urban design and mid-century furnishings meet cute-as-a-button bedrooms and charming personal touches. But with all the delights of tinsel town right on your doorstep, you'll be up and at it, setting off into the sunset (strip) each morning. Sleeps up to 4 | 2 Bedrooms | 1 Bathroom

Click to book Cahuenga Reserve now: from £580 per night If you're looking for a retreat in Hollywood Hills, this stunning home is perfect. There are incredible canyon views from almost every room, as well as outside – we love the breathtaking vistas. Step onto your double-deck to enjoy your morning coffee or a chilled glass of wine. Wildlife lovers will adore it here, watch the hummingbirds hover around – or listen to the owls that often visit as the sun sets. You'll feel entirely revitalised, especially considering you'll have a custom-built sauna at your disposal. The impressive interiors are perfect for entertaining, and every room has its own private exterior deck area. Once you're rested and relaxed, you'll probably want to explore out and about. It's just a ten-minute drive to Hollywood's Walk of Fame or the world-famous Universal Studios. This location truly gives you the best of both worlds. Sleeps up to 4 | 2 Bedrooms | 2 Bathrooms
