Venice Beach Private Guesthouse * Walk to Beach
Fabulous! My young friend Lila is relocating back to hometown happy place of Venice area and this spot was an incredible transition for her! Location, terrific aesthetics and hosts were amazing!

Private, standalone and fenced studio in Topanga
My stay with Holly was flawless.She was hospitable, adept, and actually malleable at meeting my needs. The place waz perfectly swt up with many cozy, just so touches. Holly anticipated my every need and yet, was so private, and respectful. An amazing secret respite in the middle of LA!!!!!

Large, Private Home in the Heart of Venice
Just like the pictures, clean and comfortable. In a great location where you can walk to the beach, restaurants, even the grocery store. The hosts were extremely communicative and flexible. Highly recommend!

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
Great place to stay nice and spacious homey feel. Definitely recommend, has everything you need. Nice and quiet neighborhood with a park close by if you want to take a walk. Great hosts, very communicative throughout the whole stay.

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!

Charming 1930s Cottage and pet friendly!
A historic home in a beautiful, quiet Pasadena neighborhood. Very clean, comfortable, well-stocked home. Easy breezy checking in and checking out. Lots to do in the area. A perfect stay!

2Br Home Next To Pomona Fairplex Pet Friendly
Highly recommend this well-appointed spot in Pomona! The house was exactly as described and pictured - clean, pleasant, and spacious. Ann and Joel were responsive, helpful, and made checking in and out such a breeze. The backyard, right down to the patio, fairy lights, and space to run around with a toddler, was exactly what I was looking for. And because of the lemon and orange trees, and the jasmine that blooms around the neighborhood, walking out your door is a bit like lighting a Jo Malone candle. Would highly recommend this place for anyone visiting friends or family in the area, or for anyone who’s attending the nearby (in walking distance!) LA County Fair and want to make a weekend of it.

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.
loved staying here! such a beautiful and well thought out apartment. adorable huskys as well!

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.

Modern*Universal Stdios/Americana 2BD2BTH APT
One of the best places to stay if you are around Glendale. It’s really comfortable and chill. The host is a nice person, very responsive and respectful. There is a mall across the street and many places to visit. Worth the money.

Cozy Studio Apartment In Santa Monica
Great location, great restaurants and shops within walking distance. Also easy access to public transport. Claudia was very friendly and supportive throughout!

Bright 1bd apt in Santa Monica w FREE parking

Tranquil Apartment Steps from Old Town Monrovia
After surviving the Eaton Canyon fire, I needed a place where I could decompress from the chaos and destruction. Being able to stay with family and friends following the event was a blessing, but I needed a place of my own to truly begin the healing process. I saw this listing and knew this was the place for me. The Monrovia location kept me close to my home while it is being repaired. The AirBnB's four units make for a quiet living experience and the fact that it is 2 blocks from Old Town Monrovia is the icing on the cake. This residential neighborhood is very walkable as experienced by the modest pedestrian street activity. Richard is the perfect host! When I I have a question or something in the unit needs to be addressed, Richard has immediately responded and satisfactorily solved the issue. I've resided in two of the units and both have been clean and excellently furnished. This place has helped me on my road back to normalcy! Thank you, Richard!

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
This is my second time here so obviously I think it's great. It's well-maintained, comfy, and in a beautiful hilly area. The studio is attached to her home but is on its own level and has no door leading to her house. For an attached unit, it feels pretty private. I didn't have a car and that worked out fine because I'm okay with hill climbing. It's about a 12 min walk to a grocery store and some restaurants, 20 min walk to the LA river and the coffee shops along it. Adrien was kind and a wonderful host!

Close to beach Santa Monica 5th & Montana St
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.

everything was perfect

Redondo Beach Dream
I enjoyed staying at Veronika's guesthouse. It was clean, colorful and functional. My dog loved the big backyard. Sometimes there were little miscommunication related to the bunny in the backyard but otherwise everything went really well. There's someone living on the other side of the thin bathroom wall so that was a little minus to the feeling of privacy but didn't bother me too much. Veronika and her whole family were super friendly hosts! I was able to walk down to the beach with my surfboard so in that sense the location is amazing.

#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

Modern & Spacious Apartment in Los Angeles
Great host and great apartment. Had everything we needed for a 2 night stay. Location was convenient. Would stay here again.
