OCEAN-FRONT | On Beach/Strand | Two Private Decks
We had a great stay in Manhattan Beach! It was fun to be right on the stand - walkable, beautiful and convenient. Emily was proactive and responsive. We hope to be back!

Luxury Beachside Living | Walk to the Sand & Waves
This place is an absolute dream! My partner and I stayed for 10 days and would definitely come back. Obsessed with the location, 1 short block from beach and Venice boardwalk. Countless delicious restaurants and cafes. The views were incredible. The apartment is newly remodeled, brand new everything. It’s a bright and cozy atmosphere. The hosts are lovely<3 It can get loud at times from outside people on the street and music blasting but that was minimally during the day and didn’t bother us at all. If you have work calls during the day my partner just had his noises cancel headphones and his clients didn’t hear anything. Another to note is the pipes in the walls are very loud at night, unless you’re a heavy sleeper you will definitely need earplugs to sleep (which the hosts provide).

Sunny Coastal Retreat-1 King Bed 1 Bath Apt in LBC
I had a fantastic stay in Long Beach! The place was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully put together. It had everything I needed for a relaxing stay, and the location was perfect—close to great restaurants, the beach, and local attractions. Ami was communicative and welcoming, making check-in and check-out smooth and hassle-free. Highly recommend!

Ocean View Suite in Downtown SM
We loved staying at Chris’s place. It is right across the street from the beach and next to amazing restaurants. Chris gave great directions on how to find the parking garage and it was easy to check-in. $30 a night for parking was a little unfortunate but overall we loved our stay and would stay there again.

Ocean Lover's Dream Studio In Santa Monica
Amazing place! So happy that I was able to snag this place as last minute as I did. The original apt that I got was not available so they swapped me over to another apt, super similar! I appreciated them asking me if that was okay before moving forward! Complex is super close to the pier! Both hosts were super responsive to any questions I had, which were a lot! Place was super clean, no imperfections! Made multiple target runs to the one nearby, super convenient. A little hesitant when having food delivered, but the doordashers were aware of how to get into complex. Overall, will definitely look here again when I come back! Thank you again!

Seaside Beach Villa - Studio Apartment on the sand
We had a fantastic visit to the villa! Everything was perfect, from Kim’s communication to the comfortable bed and space to relax. We loved the location, steps away from the beach and within comfortable walking distance to restaurants. Just about a half hour drive to Disneyland, we were able to easily plan a trip there with ease during our stay. I felt like I was right at home in the villa, the moment we opened the door you are met with the scent of fresh laundry as all the towels and bedding, and throw blankets were freshly laundered. The kitchen was spotless as was the bathroom and shower. And the water pressure and temperature in the shower was fantastic! Felt great after the long days at Disney. Kim was an excellent communicator, responding quickly when we chatted. She even gave us restaurant recommendations and tips on things to do. I can’t wait to return! This property is a gem - do not hesitate to book!

Cozy Beach Bungalow Apt - 2BD/1BA
We had an incredible stay at Bradley's Airbnb in Manhattan Beach! The location was perfect—just a short walk to the beach, as well as multiple restaurants and shops, making it so easy to explore the area. The apartment itself was fantastic: well-stocked, clean, and spacious enough to comfortably accommodate our family of five, including three teenagers. Bradley's father, Robert, was the main contact and is an excellent host. He was always available for recommendations and went above and beyond by giving us a personal walking tour of the area when we arrived. His knowledge of the local spots made our trip even more enjoyable. Overall, our experience was amazing, and we highly recommend staying here! It was the perfect place for our family vacation. We can not wait to return!

Splendid Ocean and City View & Casper King Bed
We stayed at Jonathan’s place for a weekend. The place was spotless! I love it when I walk in and a place smells clean, and it did! Very comfortable bed. The kitchen was well stocked with plates and utensils. Security is wonderful. The views are AMAZING! Especially at night with the SM Pier it up! We loved it. Thank you Jonathan. I would give you a 10 rating if I could.

60th St - 2 Bed Oceanfront w/ patio on the Sand
Everything was great!

Beachfront Retreat Getaway
This is hands down the best home I’ve rented! It has everything you could need - definitely feels like a home and not a rental! The house was so cute and loved the touches from the original home. The furniture was very comfortable and everything felt clean! We absolutely loved our time. The dutch door looking out to the back was wonderful. We loved watching the kids play in the sand or swing on the hammock. The only downside was that the beach directly behind the home (over the sand berm) is not clean. There is loads of trash including needles. But you can easily walk to the nicer part of the beach or the bay area directly across the street. Would definitely rent again! The hosts were so communicative and friendly. Would recommend!

Redondo Beach house 5 min walk to beach-Historic
We've stayed at many AirBnBs over the years, and Debra's place will always stand among the best. An easy, charming walk to the beach is a highlight, for sure, but the house itself is larger than we expected. The owners retreat at the back of the house is quietly set back from the front of the house and the other two bedrooms, allowing for privacy for parents and teens, and we had ample tables and chairs to do our work, our reading, and our planning for day trips. Easy drive to/from the airport, exceedingly walkable to pretty much anything you'd want or need, and parking on-street was consistently easy, right in front of the house. Debra is an ideal host: careful, thoughtful, fun, kind. She made us the best lemonade on earth from the lemons on the tree out front of the house. The hummingbirds were active throughout the day, and watching them at the kitchen window was idyllic. The gardens in the back of the house were amazing. Hard to not say more: a truly great stay!

Amazing Venice Beach House
This is our 3rd time staying here, and it is just our home away from home. There is just a sprinkle of magic in this home, and I believe it has everything to do with Bridgett with all her creativity, and love put into all the little details. It just feels like a hug when we stay here, and the memories I have of my daughters are just priceless! So grateful for this place!

Ocean Boulevard Beachfront Home
Fantastic host! Stocked the fridge with water and left us some fruit and chocolate for our arrival. Gave us early check in and late checkout. The house itself was very clean and well maintained. The upstairs bathrooms even have bidets. Would 100% stay again. The only negative worth mentioning is the house is on a main road so there was car noise audible in the mornings. But that's the trade off for being directly across from the beach entrance.

Beach House 2 King Suites+Sleeper, Steps to Sand
It was an amazing place to stay with beautiful rooftop views. Clifton was very helpful with checking and with any questions I had. Although beware. Like other reviews the only thing is there is at of stairs as every rooms and living room are on separate floors. It’s definitely not a complaint for me but you can find it tiring after a long day out. There was clean linens, towels, and toiletries available. Has a gas stove that worked great with some pans included that we made French toast with. The area also great and felt safe 24/7. It had garage parking which is great as the area can fill up during the day time with people going to the beach. I’d highly recommend the place, especially if staying for multiple days or with other people. It’s a great roomy location that I hope to be able to return to sometime.

Ocean/Sunset views 2Dream of /Private Home,parking
Victoria was an amazing host! Very communicative and such a kind heart. The fires were happening in the north and our friends we were meeting at her house, came in a day earlier and were staying in another hotel close to fires. She offered them to come a day early to get away from the smoke!! Her house was south of fires, so we were OK here. She then offered us a late checkout as our flight wasn't until 8pm at night. This was so welcome as we have young children. She really went above and beyond! Her place is very homely and great to be close to the beach. Thank you for everything Victoria :)

Beach house on the corner minutes to Disneyland
Great host, not only is Matt’s place amazing, but he is a top notch host! Truly cares about his guests and quick response times! The house was incredible kitchen had all supplies so I was able to cook without missing anything! The fire pit and BBQ on front patio allowed for amazing memories! The rooftop patio, perfect for the morning sun! Walkable to Main Street and the beach! We never had to drive anywhere! Will definitely be staying here again!

~Luxury meets Cozy• Free Parking• Amenities~
Yese is a very responsive host. Her place was absolutely beautiful, clean and in a perfect location. I was able to cook several meals in the well stocked kitchen and it was easy to feel at home in this place. We would stay again!

Beachfront on the Bay- penthouse on the sand
This condo was very beautiful and the views from the living room and dining room were amazing. Our only thing is we didn't realize how steep the stairs were, and my mother couldn't climb them, so she had to stay somewhere else. Then we checked out. So, we paid for something we couldn't enjoy and that was sad. Not even a small portion of a refund was offered to us.

Luxury Beachfront Home
Best location in Manhattan beach on the strand directly in front of the ocean. Our stay was perfect. Would love to stay at Tony’s again.

Ocean View Studio Near Convention Ctr and Beach
I had an INCREDIBLE stay in Long Beach thanks to Nico! They were so flexible and worked with me on an earlier check in time. It was spotless and comfortable. I will definitely be staying here again in the future.

Oceanfront- Modern Beach Home on The Strand !
Overall, we enjoyed the place immensely and we will definitely stay there again a beautiful apartment right on the beach with all the amenities of family needs

Malibu, Carbon Beach - Oceanfront Suite Two
Fabulous getaway in Malibu. Communication was prompt and helpful.

Spatious 2 bedroom apt, 1 block from beach
I will be staying here again in the future. All around a great place with lots of room.

Endless Sunset- Near Beach, Surf and Pet Friendly!
Great place to stay with a family. A short and easy walk to the beach made for an amazing vacation. House was clean and comfortable. It is important to note one of the bedrooms is on the first floor, right across from the door of the unit. The unit next door is also an airbnb and can be loud at times, especially late. The host provided some toys for our girls to enjoy. However, there is a photo of a child's bike yet there was no child's bike in the garage, bummer for our 5 year old. Plenty of restaurants close by. There was only one child's plate upon arrival and host provided more quickly for us. Overall, we had a wonderful time in Huntington Beach and this condo.
