Steps from the SAND private suite on Peninsula
Will was a very responsive host and had great recommendations for the area. Just be aware that since this is an attached space to the next-door neighbors, the sound from upstairs is a bit prominent like footsteps/loud sound. Couple of knick knacks like the shower door and fridge door were to be fixed, but that was acknowledged to be repaired. Otherwise, I would love to stay here again.

TopangaSTRONG, Studio w/ Hot Tub, Creek, Mtn View
Wow, what an incredible two days! This unit truly exceeded my expectations. It had everything I needed and so much more. The beauty of the canyon left me in awe, and there was something magical about savoring breakfast while soaking in that breathtaking morning view. I felt completely at peace, especially since I didn’t come across anyone else during my stay—such a perfect sense of privacy! I can’t express how much I’d love to return and relive this wonderful experience. Thank you Mona and Daniel for everything!

Stunning Private 1 Bdrm Beach Apartment w/AC
David was an amazing host and very attentive to detail. His place was beautiful and very clean. He made sure we had everything we needed and was very communicative. The apartment is right next to the beach and in a quiet Neighborhood. I definitely recommend this place and will be returning soon.

Unique, historic Beach pad. Very well appointed.
We loved staying at this cute little bungalow. The location was perfect, the decor was cute, and there was plenty of space. One of the things that was a blessing, there was TP, paper towels, and a few necessities that we did not have to run out and purchase more. Access to beach towels, chairs, and bikes was a plus. The location was easy in and out and the parking space was a bonus. There was just 1 day that someone parked in our space so we took our car to our sons and parked there, luckily he was close. I would highly recommend this space to anyone traveling to Santa Monica, it was just perfect! Thanks and happy summer.

RENOVATED Bungalow Steps to Beach, Shops & Dining
I had an amazing stay at this property! The location is absolutely perfect, just a short walk to the beach, shops, and a great selection of restaurants. The space itself was spotless and beautifully maintained. Everything felt fresh and inviting from the moment I arrived. The beds were incredibly comfortable, which made it so easy to relax and get a great night’s sleep after a day of exploring. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect beach getaway!

Oceanfront, NO Highway Noise, Right on the Water!
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Staying at Melody’s place was truly a dream. The home was not only beautiful and perfectly clean, but the breathtaking ocean view made every moment unforgettable. Falling asleep to the soothing sound of the waves each night brought such peace and comfort — it was an experience we will always treasure. Melody’s kindness, attention to detail, and thoughtful recommendations, like the easy walk to Nobu restaurant, made our stay even more special. It was the perfect couple’s getaway peaceful, romantic, and filled with special touches. We are so grateful for the chance to stay here and can’t wait to return. Thank you, Melody, for creating such a magical and memorable experience! ❤️

Seaside Beach Villa - Studio Apartment on the sand
We loved staying here! The place was beautiful and perfect for our little family! Kim was super easy to communicate with and very proactive in her responses! We would love to stay again when back in Long Beach!

The Surf Casita - Luxury Central Beach Retreat
Fantastic stay! We loved our time here. The house was beautiful and clean. Exactly as described. Very well stocked kitchen and linens and towels. Not stripped down like other rentals I have stayed at. The location was perfect. Walked right to the beach or restaurants. No driving needed which is key as parking in the area can be tough. Neighbors are friendly and even though this house is so close to the pier it was very quiet. Will definitely come back to stay again.

Amazing Venice Beach House
We had a great stay at Bridget’s home in Venice Beach. We got a chance to meet her at check-in and she was very nice to talk to and gave us all of the ins and out of the house and answered any questions we had. The house is filled with some really awesome vintage decor and the front and back gardens are very beautiful and relaxing. The house is located right in the middle of Venice Beach walking distance to everything.

Beach House 2 King Suites+Sleeper, Steps to Sand
Loved the location on the peninsula. We were able to walk to the beach, to restaurants and really enjoyed being able to use the rooftop deck. Beds were super comfortable and the place was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. It was very helpful also to have the garage for our car and e-bikes since parking is such a challenge in that area. Appreciated our host being available for any questions on arrival and throughout our stay. Hope to visit again!

Chic Venice House | Beachfront Walk | Balcony
Zev & Melissa’s AirBnb was great! Check in was very easy and instructions were very clear and helpful. The home matched the photos and the unit had all needed amenities. The beach was steps away and lots of great restaurants within walking distance. We hope to stay here again soon!

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 location! Would stay here again.
Dexter’s Dockside, Long Beach Waterfront House
Easy to find location, close to 2nd street and the beach. Quiet neighborhood, beautiful scenery. House was clean and fit the description posted. Response was quick when needed. Will book again if in the area

Oceanfront Oasis
The PERFECT place!! Location. Location. Location. Clean. Responsive. Well stocked kitchen. Comfortable beds. It had it all. Parking for 2nd vehicle was a challenge but really not that bad. Neighborhood was super safe and plenty to do and walking distance. Truly amazing in every way. Highly recommend.

BRAND NEW Luxury 1 Bedroom Condo next to the Beach
Great spot! Very clean and well designed.

Top Floor Ocean Views & 2 Car Garage Steps to Sand
Amanda is amazing. I had a bad review on my account which was only due to a host retaliating against me and Amanda still gave me a chance despite how horrible my last review sounded. She’s very kind and VERY accommodating. I kinda bugged her a lot and she was able to accommodate every request. The place looks a little bit bigger in the photos so be sure to check the square footage in the ad. That was my mistake but even though it was a little smaller than I thought it was still an amazing place to stay. Very clean, cute, and we felt right at home. The best part was it’s literally walking distance to the beach. A lot of places say that but this place truly is. You also get a garage to park in and a bunch of beach gear to use! Thanks Amanda! :D
Christopher - 2001 Court St.
This is the perfect little place right next to New Port Pier. It was clean and spacious. It was fun to be next to the pier with all the restaurants and shops. The beach is just steps away and they have a cute farmers market on Sundays. It was perfect.

Beachfront Condo | Location | Endless Views | Surf
Kristi was a great host! Helped us book last minute and responded quickly to all messages.

City, Views, Beach & more!
We had a wonderful stay at Yese’s apartment in Marina Del Rey! Exactly what we needed to end our trip to the US and in a great location. Would absolutely stay here again.

Ocean View Studio Near Convention Ctr and Beach
Location, location, location! Nico goes the extra mile to provide a home away from home experience in the heart of Downtown Long Beach with a 5 minute walk to the beach and a 10 minute walk to the Convention Center in lovely historic Cooper Arms Building. Pillow top queen with fine linens made for the best sleep. Plush towels, microwave, refrigerator, and all the minor details were taken care of such as luggage rack, hair dryer, iron and ironing board. Super cozy and feather and down loveseat was a plus for added comfort! Stayed for work, but felt like it was for pleasure!! Will come again!!

Awesome On The Strand, Hermosa Beach Property
The only word I can say to describe Jim’s place is amazing. It really is. What an absolute privilege to stay in such a beautiful apartment on such a beautiful beach. The apartment had everything we needed and more, Jim was absolutely razor sharp responsive and when he nipped over to see us for an hour he left us feeling like we’d made a friend! What a great guy. Thank you, Jim. We’ll definitely be back.

Spatious 2 bedroom apt, 1 block from beach
Really nice place with a lot of amenities and really quick response time. Parking is definitely a little difficult in the evening, but other than that it was a great stay!
