Foreigner Wants Vacation Home

I have a foreign relative that wants to buy a vacation home in California. They would use it a few months a year and rent it out when not in use. Most likely a cash purchase. What is the best way to go about this? - should an LLC be set up? - what strategy has tax advantages? - any seasoning needed on the money? Thanks, Bob
