Sunny Coastal Retreat-1 King Bed 1 Bath Apt in LBC
We had a great long weekend at Ami's place! The apartment is very spacious, quiet, spotless & comfortable. The place was stocked with everything we needed to prepare food. We were so appreciative of the coffee, snacks & drinks that Ami left for us - this was so nice after a long drive and late arrival. I can see that parking might be challenging but we didn't have any issues with this. We easily walked to the store, beach & convention center. The host thought of every comfort & detail.

New ! Casa Luna ! luxury coastal condo
We loved our place, it was spotless clean and fresh. We had everything we need. Thank you

Modern day 2 BDR Beach home
Cutie little place, WONDERFUL beach access.

Unique, historic Beach pad. Very well appointed.
Everything was great and host was accommodating! We’ll be back!

Stylish, Cozy Studio with Patio, near Sony, LAX
I booked Mia's home for a coworker who was working in LA for four weeks. It was a great location, and Mia was really great to work with and very responsive. We would use her home again. Highly recommend!

RENOVATED Bungalow Steps to Beach, Shops & Dining
We enjoyed our stay at Jonathan’s Friendly neighbors and really liked the location.

Disneyland Orange County Oasis / Private BR & BA
The place was exactly as described and we felt incredibly comfortable. They had a cute set up and the pool was clean. The host were lovely and efficient. I truly enjoyed my stay here and would definitely come back.

Outstanding Studio in Santa Monica with Pool
Loved this accommodation! Both the parking spot and room were easy to get to, just read the instructions well and thoroughly. It had everything we needed for the stay. I really liked how it felt very private despite being central in busy Santa Monica. Would look to stay here again!

Malibu PCH - across the street from the ocean!
Nice studio close to the beach and the everything Malibu has to offer

Amazing Venice Beach House
I love the homeyness of the place and the outdoor spaces are unbeatable. The home has its quirks but that is to be understandable being by the beach and in a metro area. The bed and furniture are comfortable, the kitchen has what you need typically, and the garage is full of extra amenities including that very useful parking spot.

Trailside Treasures- 6 Beds (1 King) Near Disney
Jennifer was an amazing host! House was exactly as described and the location was perfect for still being close to downtown LA but cheaper & calmer than staying in the big city. Jennifer went above and beyond by providing us with a rice cooker, for my partner who has special food needs. She also was willing to ship back a sentimental value item that we accidentally left. If I ever come back to Santa Ana I’ll be booking with Jennifer 100%!

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!

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 :)

ON THE SAND 2-bedroom sunny BEACH apartment
Old beach house with amazing location! Bay side was perfect for our younger kids. Will is so nice, responsive and gave us great recommendations for restaurants in the area. Would definitely recommend
Dexter’s Dockside, Long Beach Waterfront House
Kyle's place was great. It was actually roomier than expected and a very warm feel to it. Great ocean breeze and great views. Within a short distance to some very nice bars and restaurants (Liv's oysters we're fire!) I would definitely stay there again.

Oceanfront Oasis
Great place. All the photos and descriptions were accurate. We celebrated our daughter’s birthday and we had a good time having it there.

Top Floor Ocean Views & 2 Car Garage Steps to Sand
We had a great stay at Amanda's condo. Her communication was excellent from start to finish, which we really appreciated. The location of the condo is excellent and the views are spectacular. The beach is a very short walk from the condo, which is well equipped with beach chairs and other beach amenities. The Stand is also right down the Hill, where one can bike or job along the Ocean. There were also several very good restaurants within walking distance of the condo. Overall, it's a great place to stay with a very cool feel in a really beautiful setting in a location that has a cool vibe and makes us want to come back someday.

Ocean View Oasis Near Convention Center & Beach
I highly recommend Sam's place. The apartment clean and really nice. The location was also great

~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!

Oceanfront Beach Villa- Enjoy The Beach Life!
My family and I had an amazing stay here at Linda’s beach house! Everything exceeded our expectations. The house is located right on the beach, which made it super convenient with our kids!! There is also beach gear available which was another a total life saver, we were able to use the stroller, bikes, beach toys, boogie boards and beach chairs 🙌🏼 my kids had so much fun, they didn’t want to go home 😂 The house was clean, comfortable, and had beautiful beach views. & Linda was a phenomenal host!! She was so kind, welcoming and communicative!! You can tell she truly cares about her guests having a great experience. By far the best Airbnb host we’ve ever had! We will definitely be back for another trip!!! 🫶🏻

Ocean View Studio Near Convention Ctr and Beach
We had a fantastic stay at this lovely studio apartment conveniently located just a short walk from the water. In fact, everything was within walking distance! In the future, whenever we stay in Long Beach, we will be checking for availability here first. The apartment was spotless and well maintained. The bed was super comfy, too! I drank my morning coffee on the balcony and just enjoyed the view. The building felt very secure. The clearly detailed instructions Nico provided made the check-in process stress free. And, when we did have any questions, Nico was very attentive and always responded within minutes. We had no issues with the parking garage and were confident our vehicle was in a safe location. Ultimately, this is one of the best places we’ve stayed under the Airbnb umbrella.

Oceanfront Malibu Townhouse On Quiet Road
Love the place we had a great time! We would stay there again!

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!

On the Sand beachfront 3b/2b remodeled first floor
Wow! Henry and Maria were absolutely amazing hosts! They were very helpful and responsive and most of all very accommodating. The home was spotless and better than described. Would recommend 1000% Thank you The Lampkin’s
