koolkondo Malibu Oceanview Getaway
Excellent property with excellent owners - we stayed for a couple of days during our son’s Pepperdine graduation and the property met our needs. Very spacious kitchen and living room. Amazing ocean views. Very clean. Strong communication. Highly recommended

Private Casita Room at Terranea Resort
First and foremost, Anna is an incredible communicator. We greatly appreciate that as we booked last minute and she was able to get us set up. She’s so understanding and quick to help out. The place was clean and just as explained. Awesome stay at an awesome resort. Definitely going to stay at her place again.

Lovely Waterfront 2BDRM + Luxury Amenities
Beautiful quiet condo. We love Peter’s rentals… they are very clean, quiet and in the best location. Lots to do in the area…. We will definitely come back⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Marina Bay Retreat 2BD
The apartment is very clean and fit 6 of us. We stayed for one night but could see us staying there longer if we needed to. Karina is very responsive and kind. We had a spill and she was very understanding that accidents happen.

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! ❤️

Modern Marina del Rey Oasis | Pool & Jacuzzi
Nice place - in line with the description. Having a parking spot secured is a big plus. The flat by itself is very nice and well equipped..nothing is missing to have a pleasant stay. Plublic Transportation is at the corner of the bloc - will get you to Santa Monica pier in roughly 30mn. Then from there - metro rail is available to get you anywhere in LA Overall I recommend this place - and furthermore Alisa has been great to communicate with.

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.

Waterfront Marina View w/ Private Promenade Access
The views are wonderful and walking around the marina is pretty. The condo is spotless. Claudia was extremely responsive throughout the rental. I see why she is Superhost. It was winter so we didn’t use the pool, but the pool area and close-by patio area with hot tub are nice. Whole Foods in Venice is great and close by, as is Costco, so we had many meals at ‘home.’ A few cons: there is no bedroom. It is a studio. No fluffy white towels in bathroom as shown. Can’t use the small balcony. Finally - not a reflection on the host at all, but the building has shared water and morning showers were not always hot. Evening showers were fine. A nice place if you want a home base away from downtown in a pretty area.
Beachfront home rentals with a hot tub

Downtown Huntington Beach AC, steps to the sand
Mikel’s place was great. Very short walk to the beach and restaurants. He is a fantastic communicator and great host. We will be back for sure!

Shoreline Villa by AvantStay | Steps to Beach&Bay!
Would absolutely stay here again. The kitchen was stocked with everything you would need to cook at home! The decor was perfect. Beds super comfy! Close to the beach and pier. Quiet. Great rooftop as well. Can’t say enough about this rental!!

Upper oceanfront with roof-top deck and hot tub!
We had a wonderful time and would definitely book this house again! We loved it so much we wanted to book another day but someone else already had it booked. We loved the roof hot tub, the sand and beach being right on the house!!!

"The Oasis" Sunset Beach, 5 houses from the sand
Great host with quick responses and made our trip awesome. Highly recommend staying here.

Beautiful oceanfront Malibu condo
This was one of the most beautiful locations I have stayed at! I am an avid traveler and advisor, so I have stayed MANY places. This was my first visit to Malibu specifically, and Bill and his space were nothing short of amazing. You can hear the waves from anywhere in the home, and it is so peaceful. All of the linens and towels were cleaned, with ample amounts of extra pieces! There was also MULTIPLE different kinds of shampoos and conditioners that were provided, plus small things you may not think about such as cotton balls and Bobby pins. The kitchen has all condiments and every utensil you may need to cook! We felt safe and secure, and the neighbors were also so kind and lovely. The secured parking structure and entrance was helpful and the shared pool and hot tub were a great addition. This is a 10/10, and in walking distance to Nobu and other popular restaurants! If you are thinking of booking here, do not hesitate!

OCEAN Front Bluff Park Villa W/ HOT TUB
Loved the location and the atmosphere. Susan had top quality products available for our use. The beds weren’t the most comfortable And we had to pay to secure parking at the house but I would still book this location. The home is beautiful inside and out, it was well maintained and clean, it’s walking distance to the beach and to many other local places that were awesome. Found some great tea/coffee shops, a really cool clothing boutique (BeMe chic) and other good restaurants. Thank you Susan for hosting me and my family this weekend.

Newly Renovated Oceanfront Carbon Beach Escape
Family get away with our adult “kids”. Perfect spot to enjoy the beach, close surf spots and walkable to local eateries. Pool and hot tub are a great add! Just the right place for us!

Luxury Duffy Boat + Bayfront Paradise | 5 Star Gem
The place was wonderful and the amenities made it all the better. The bbq boat and hot tub were a little tricky to get started but Shane was very responsive and quick to help. The duffy boat was a hit and so easy to use. The only downside was the parking, it was a little tricky to figure out but it was fine. There was also construction outside during the first night that shook the entire building at 2am but that’s more of the cities issue. overall, the stay was wonderful and can’t wait to come back

BelmontShoresBH - A
This place was exactly as advertised. We spent hours sitting outside in the yard relaxing during our stay which is exactly what we'd hoped for. The location was perfect: right near the beach and restaurants but in a quiet community. I'd love to stay here again.

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!

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

Cheerful 2 Bedroom With Best Sunset Views
This is easily the favorite Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in. Only reason I contemplated leaving a review, is because I don’t want others to fill the slots 😂😂 Will definitely be back soon. Thank you to the hosts!

Premium Sunset Penthouse Ocean Front Malibu Road
Marc is an amazing host! The apartment was clean, cozy, and exceeded my expectations. The location was perfect.

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.

Steps To The Beach, Main St.&Pacific City - Studio
Convenient location, only about 5 minute walk from the beach, responsible host, very clean!

Ocean house, full size Tennis court & Pickleball.
This place is perfect for a group vacation in the Long Beach area. It’s a really neat and well taken care of 100 year old house that is beautiful and functional. The house is well equipped and the location is perfect with easy access to the beach, as well as a variety of restaurants and shops a couple blocks away from the beach. Minh was a pleasure to deal with and went out of his way to help. I highly recommend this rental and would gladly return.
