Hollie was amazing and we had a wonderful stay. Big thanks for the early check in and quick and thoughtful communication. Location was perfect and it felt very safe.

The Perfect Place
We spent an entire month at The Perfect Place after losing our home in the Eaton Fires. It was the perfect amount of space for 2 dogs and 2 humans :) the kitchen was very well equipped and we even cooked at home a couple times. The couch is super comfy for TV watching or just hanging out: We took some really beautiful walks and LOVED some of the restaurants around there. James was very responsive and sweet to us. Thank you! Monterey Park is a new fav

Private bungalow near SoFi Stadium, LAX, & beaches
Such a lovely place to stay. Definitely coming back whenever I want to relax.

Breezy Cottage One Block from the Beach
We had such a lovely stay at Tiana's home! The space was more spacious than we expected (we were a family of 4 with two little kiddos), super clean and comfortable, and we loved how close we were to the beach. We were visiting family in the area and were happy to host a breakfast at our place before heading to the beach for the afternoon. There are so many nice restaurants and coffee shops close by. I even went to a yoga class just a mile up the road when we had a free morning! We are so grateful to Tiana and her husband for their flexibility, wonderful communication, patience and kindness! We will absolutely love to stay here again when we're back visiting family!

Tranquil Apartment Steps from Old Town Monrovia
We enjoyed staying for 11 days at Richard's charming and comfortable Monrovia apartment, that was more like a guest house. A great place for the 2 of us and our fur baby! Richard was a great host, very responsive and considerate. We loved walking through the neighborhood and old town Monrovia. We would definitely stay here again!

New modern luxury 1 BR in Santa Monica
I felt right at home, in this very private condo with private parking and balcony. It was much more spacious than anticipated. Great location walking distance to coffee shops, restaurants and downtown Santa Monica and the beach. Perfect for a morning stroll before a work day and or a leisurely weekend. My work trip felt like vacation. Will stay again.

stylish cozy guest apartment.
Juan was a wonderful host and this place is a gem! Would love to stay here again the next time I’m in town.

Super-Cute 2/2 apartment in Santa Monica
Location couldn't be beat! All the amenities we needed, right by Target, and a quick walk to the pier. Comfortable beds, nice and clean apartment.

Charming Two Bd Sunny Santa Monica
Sydny's place was well-appointed, comfortable, and relaxing. She was responsive & helpful, and the place was close to many conveniences. I definitely recommend her place as a great landing spot for exploring Santa Monica. And if you are from San Francisco, don't miss Tartine's Santa Monica on Arizona & 20th! It's just a few blocks away from Sydny's and the whole place is great with beautiful indoor & outdoor spaces and of course, great food.

Pet-friendly apartments in Pasadena

Very spacious studio apartment by the beach.
Lovely place to stay and great location. Host was super sweet and gave us all sorts of recommendations. Short walk to the beach, pier, and restaurants. Street parking was easy for us during our time there with their permit. There is also a garage pass for a garage that’s less than a block away if street parking is hard to find but we didn’t need to use that option. They have bikes and bike locks provided that ran great for our rides up and down the beach.

Lovely Silverlake Studio with Parking
I stayed at Adrien’s place for 2 weeks for a work trip and it was perfect for my stay. Super homely and cosy, with a well equipped full kitchen, a super comfortable bed and large bathroom. The outside deck was a lovely extension of the space when it was warm enough to be outside too! Highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in this area.

Santa Monica 5th & Montana st close to beach
Perfect location and very nice apartment, with fresh high-quality linens and towels. It is fully-priced and has some nice amenities, but in other ways does need some attention, esp. at the price. The TV was effectively non-functional — host said he would replace it but that wasn't going to help me. The kitchen is also outdated with a partially broken faucet and both too much clutter and yet some odd omissions: normal enough for a vacation rental, but for the price these should be taken care of. Harry is however a lovely gentleman and you will not regret the location.

Modern and Elegant,Quick access to fwy 710,105,605
Maria's place was a great find on airbnb, I need a place for my father and I to stay for the night. It was close to where my family lives in Bellflower. Would stay at Maria's place if I am ever visiting family in Bellflower.

#1 Private Cozy & Charming Apt.
I have absolutely no complaints. Joe and Petra were phenomenal host. Very accommodating and friendly, fast communication. They were also very understanding of my needs and situation. The neighborhood is really quiet. The drive is on a steep downward slope so make sure your car isn’t too low to the ground. House is just as described and seen in the pictures. Very clean and has everything you need. I highly recommend
