2br2bth El Porto Ocean View, Garage, Laundry, Wi-Fi
As advertised, great location, close to the beach and a short walk to local cafes! Amazing ocean view.

2+1.5 home with attached garage and beach close
David and Ginger are good hosts. They allowed us to get in earlier than the stipulated time. We made good their home and the easy access to Long Beach. They were flexible to us in exiting the home so we could wait there instead of the airport. Thank you

Malibu Sea View Home within minutes to the Beach.
A great place to gather the family both near and far for Christmas. Very easy to get to some great beaches, restaurants, the Malibu Pier and Adamson house, canyon hike.

Location, location, location!
Such a wonderful place and host/hostess. This home is ideal for a walk downtown or walk to the beach. We’ll definitely be back♥️

WAKE HOUSE--Downtown HB, blocks to the sand & pier
Fantastic location! We loved having access to plenty of bikes for my family to enjoy the beach bike path.

Charming Beach Getaway/Next to Beach & 2nd Street
This was one of the best Airbnb’s I’ve ever stayed in. The location is perfect. Just a quick few blocks to second street and the beach. This place is spotless, comfortable, and we were all obsessed with the decor and the overall vibe. The beds were also insanely comfortable. We loved it so much that we will be booking again for next year!

ON THE SAND 2-bedroom sunny BEACH apartment
Really enjoyed our stay here. Loved how the living room opens to the outdoors and the nice view of the beach and bay. It does get warm in the afternoon with the sun shining in, but allows opening the sliding door to the open air which cools the place nicely. Also small fans are provided that cool the air (a/c). Beds were comfortable. The bathroom is a bit dated, but didn't bother us. There were some items that could use fixing, but also didn't bother us: screw sticking up off the floor (near the wall), light in one of the rooms, one room's closet door. A note: an outdoor light was on that increased light in the bedroom, and I thought it was another resident's light that I couldn't turn off. It turns out, there was a switch with clear plastic cover outside. Still overall, wonderful stay.

Cozy beach house steps from the sand
Chris and Michelle were very responsive hosts. We loved the location and were thrilled with the little toys, books, and beach items provided for our use.
Beach house rentals with a pool

Harbour House: Beach, Pool/jacuzzi & Koi Pond.
Excellent place to stay in Huntington Beach. Great for a larger group of couples. We felt right at home and would recommend this place to anyone.

Vintage Beach Retreat | Pool, King Beds,Coffee Bar
Amazing historic home. It's so special to sleep in a place with so much history AND have as many amenities as this house has with all the upgrades made to the house. The master bedroom has a very comfortable bed. We loved the kitchen and had all the things we needed to cook meals at home. In addition, we absolutely loved the location. The LB Museum of Modern Art & Claire's restaurant are walking distance, so is the beach and multiple parks. Gusto Bakery is walking distance and it's by far one of the best cafe/bakeries we have been to. We walked to bookstores, vintage stores, galleries etc The house is very clean and despite it's age, is in great condition. Hosts communicate clearly with a lot of instructions. Check in and check out are super easy. We will stay here again.

Malibou Lake Cabin (MA-3)
Ardie was very responsive and extremely accommodating. We were traveling for work and it was a very charming and elegant place to come home to after days of work. All of the furnishings and features were really nice. I would to come back to the Malibou Lake cabin, the scenery is beautiful and peaceful.

D&B's Beach Home (2 bed/1 bath/pool/spa/patio)
Had a wonderful stay at DJ and Brandee’s home last weekend while my mom and I were in town for the Surf City Half Marathon! The house is gorgeous and comfortable with fantastic amenities - everything was as described. It’s a short walk to downtown and was perfect location for us to get to the starting line. The pool and their big comfy couch were perfect for our post-race recovery. The kitchen is awesome; I loved cooking in it. DJ and Brandee were fantastic hosts — always responsive and kind. Really appreciated their hospitality and highly recommend staying here if you get the chance. Thank you!!!

2BR Home| 30sec Walk to Belmont Beach| Free Garage
We loved staying here, we requested a slightly earlier check in, and a later check out, and were accommodated both times. We did have a little trouble with unclear parking instructions the first day/next morning. But it was quickly cleared up, the host stated they would update instructions for future renters, which is great. The only thing that was bothersome for us was the lack of heat. When booking I didn’t realize we wouldn’t have access to a thermostat, and it was very cold at night. They offered to bring us another space heater which was nice, but the one already there really didn’t help a lot so we declined. That would be my only suggestion, maybe update the listing to state that they will not have access to a thermostat, so renters know to be prepared. I would have brought more things to bundle up with had I known! Other than that it was a great trip, great place to stay. Thank you!

Classic Mid-Century Home-Huntington Harbour Marina
Traveled for business. We were comfortable and able to have zoom meetings and felt like home away from home. A lovely property!

Southbay Neighborhood Resort (Large Swim Spa)
Scott's place was perfect for a family! It's a quick drive to Redondo Beach and is ideally located to enjoy the LA area. We were 30-40 minutes to Disney and 30 minutes to the Long Beach Aquarium. By far, the best attributes of the house were the outside grill and hot tub area. The backyard is fantastic for a family that wants to spend time outside. We grilled on the Weber grill and enjoyed the hot tub, which is humongous!

Long Beach Oasis
Beautiful house and great outdoor space - we enjoyed the spa and soaking up some December sunshine in the private backyard. Very comfy bed and the house is equipped with everything you can wish for. Would definitely recommend!!!

Keeping It Beachy
Tori’s place was perfect for our stay. The two bedrooms were nicely decorated and had comfortable beds. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking. The bathroom is very updated and pretty. We did not use them but appreciate the washer dryer tucked in hall. We felt at home. The street parking is not an issue and felt fine leaving car on the street. We didn’t get to use the outdoor area but it is also nice. It is near everything you would want to do in the South Bay.

That Yellow Door Beach Bungalow
Lauren was a great Host! and the place is close to so many cool spots in a walkable distance. She also has a binder with lots of options of places and activities to do in the area if you are looking for something to do. Pretty little house! And it has everything you would need for a small stay.

Prime Manhattan Beach just steps to beach!
Our home burned down in the Palisades Fire on January 7th and we needed a place to stay - and quickly. We are so grateful that we found Kim and her lovely home. Kim has been a true pleasure to deal with, providing great local information and many kindnesses during our stay (in addition to thoughtful touches like wine, cookies and fruit when we arrived). Kim even rearranged her belongings to give us more storage space as we gradually accumulate the clothing and items needed to put our lives back together. The house is great too - comfortable beds and strong showers along with a calm and tasteful decor. We especially appreciate the Air Doctor air purifier, the high-end charcoal water filter and the lovely hand soaps. The location is also ideal - close to the beach and town. We needed a sanctuary and with Kim's home we found one.

Colorado Lagoon light & bright Craftsman home!
Location very walkable to restaurants, beach, lagoon, and parks/playgrounds. Nice grocery store on the corner with good breakfast burritos. Well stocked with toiletries and toys/high chair/pack n play for toddler. It is on a busy corner/street so street noise can get loud especially on weekends.

30%OFF LMT! Malibu Ocean Wave, Walk to Beach, King
The location is great and the ocean view from the balcony and living room was my absolute favorite part. The bed and couch were comfortable and the place was clean and quiet.

Malibu Architectural - Sea and Sky
This place absolutely blew my mind. Stunning views, massive space and secluded from the rest. I most definitely will revisit this place. A gem hidden in the hills of Malibu.

Cape Catalina. Oceanview Home. Steps to Sand.
Always enjoy our stay at Cape Catalina. Great views of sunrise and sunset from rooftop deck. Good walking area. Easy access to the beach. Well furnished, with ample kitchen facilities. Excellent bedding. Responsive owners.

Feb 10% Off -Beachfront House w/Spa, Deck+VIEWS
