OCEAN-FRONT | On Beach/Strand | Two Private Decks
Stunning home in such a prime location! Right across from the beach with two patios for people watching or watching the sunset. Easy to walk to any and everything from free aquariums to local restaurants. The space itself was exactly as pictured if not larger and from beginning to end the host was very responsive and helpful. I would definitely recommend booking if you see this spot available!

Luxury Beachside Living | Walk to the Sand & Waves
We had a great stay! The place was very clean, check-in was smooth, and communication with the host was excellent. The location is perfect—just steps from the beach and near public parking, which made everything super convenient. We also really appreciated the thoughtful welcome treats. Would definitely stay here again!

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
Great stay!!!! This apartment is perfect location, easy access and the view from the room is magical The studio was very clean, and having the window open with fresh ocean air was great! The kitchen was well stocked with the basic necessities, and a 5 min walk to Trader Joe’s was helpful to stock up on some great snacks and meals Chris was a great host, very responsive and helpful I will be sure to check if this place is available for our next trip to Santa Monica

Steps from the SAND private suite on Peninsula
Will is an extremely kind and responsive host. I would definitely recommend staying at any of his rentals.

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!

Ocean Lover's Dream Studio In Santa Monica
Everything was great me and my friend had a blast, the loft is small and cozy perfect for two people. The area where the apartment is located is amazing., there are a lot of restaurants and attractions nearby. Great communication and nice people.

Seaside Beach Villa - Studio Apartment on the sand
What a wonderful stay with a beautiful beach front! Parking wasn’t too bad although we had to walk a bit each night which is due to our fault leaving early morning and coming back at 11-12 at night so of course closer parking is not expected but there is a nice area to ensure we can park temporarily for luggage unloading etc. The shower was absolutely amazing and I always looked forward to taking one! Kim was an amazing host and very responsive! I def recommend and would 100% go back!

Beachfront Retreat Getaway
Can’t beat this amazing beach front location in Belmont Shore. The views from the living room, master bedroom and back patio will leave you mesmerized and make it hard to leave the home. Luckily the neighborhood is so quaint with walking paths on both sides of the peninsula that you will want to enjoy a morning stroll, if not a run on the beach. The house is so roomy that we could comfortably fit our extended family without anyone tripping over each other. The hosts were extremely responsive and provided detailed information to make sure we immediately felt at home. We highly recommend this beautiful home!

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
A unique and lovely house close to the action but in a peaceful setting. The front garden is a magical oasis that I did not want to leave. House had everything you need for a great stay.

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
This property lived up to everything promised and more. It was clean (and I am picky!), well located, and easy to access by following the detailed instructions. Our guests, as well as ourselves, were comfortable with the beds and furnishings. The kitchen was well stocked and the towels, linens, and little extras were all appreciated. All of us that stayed had no problem with the stairs. If anyone planning to visit has mobility issues, you might want to look elsewhere, but that is the ONLY reason not to book a stay at this wonderful Air B&B. Also, nearby parking was not in issue for our guest who parked nearby on a clearly marked public street (not in the alley behind the property). Thanks Clifton!

Original Beachfront on the Boardwalk Newport Home
Great stay. Perfect location for us. We had a great time. Everything was as described and we never had to contact the host for anything.

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!

Beach Front House-Newly Renovated - Awesome Home !
We are a construction company. We are doing an emergency work in the area. It was nice to come to a place. It was comfortable and pleasant. Hopefully to book it soon again we’re gonna be there for a while in the area.
Waterfront condo rentals

BRAND NEW Luxury 1 Bedroom Condo next to the Beach
An absolutely beautiful place and so comfortable and clean!! Just gorgeous and nicely done!! We felt right at home. Tower 17 was responsive when we had trouble with the fireplace and let us add on another night too. I love their generosity with towels and supplies-no nice not to have to worry about them and we could be comfortable. We loved our time at this place!! Thank you!

~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 needed a place near the convention center and Nico‘s location was excellent! A very short walk to the convention center. Coffee shops, restaurants, and bars easily within walking distance. Highly recommend!

Beachfront Condo | Location | Endless Views | Surf
A beautiful condo in a beautiful location. Views for days! Plenty of room with the beach at your feet. The ocean breeze makes up for no AC. Plenty to do in the area or you can relax on the deck. It really is a wonderful place to stay.

Malibu, Carbon Beach - Oceanfront Suite Two
