Ocean Park Renovated Studio
The location is quiet close to the beach. The studio is well equipped with a small kitchen and a shower room. The studio is renovated with nice furniture. I had a good stay and see you soon. Thank U Evander.

The Natural Spa House for 2
If you're looking for a place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, this is the place for you! This place has *everything* (literally) to help you unwind, all you have to do is show up and relax. Not to mention the beautiful mountain views and the awesome drives down the winding roads! Char was super responsive and readily available if you needed anything. Thank you again for allowing us to stay in your little slice of paradise. It reminded us as to why we love California so much!

Stylish Venice Beach Guest House. Ideal Location!
Lovely all around - can’t wait to come back.

Canyon View House w/Sauna, Bocce & Yoga Room
Topanga Canyon is a great location away from the busy city. The Canyon house is set in an amazing location, very serene with beautiful grounds and canyon views. Lots of outdoor spaces to relax and enjoy. The interior is well done from the floorplan to the comfortable beds, and a great kitchen that included everything we needed. The host was fantastic. They were very responsive with communications and had local recommendations for Topanga Canyon and beyond. We would definitely stay here again!

Boho Chic Venice Beach Bungalow
Shell House was the perfect stay to end our road trip! Courtney has been an ideal host, no question was too much, she was always quick to respond and so accommodating. The house it’s self was so idilic and the aesthetic fit the location. It was close to the beach and Abbott Kinney BL for shops, coffee and restaurants. We would 100% stay here again and recommend to anyone considering a visit to LA to book Shell House.

New - Hey Venice Abode
Fantastic studio apartment that lives much larger than its actual size due to great spacing & flow between bed, closet, living area, kitchen & bath. Each distinct area has all that you need to feel right at home, immediately. And the location is perfect — an easy walk to Abbott Kinney, Erewhon, and the beach, with rental bikes avail nearby if you want to venture into Santa Monica, Marina del Ray, etc Really enjoyed the 4 nights here and hope to stay here again soon.

Cozy Guest Studio - Free Parking, Heart of West LA
We had a great stay here. The neighborhood is nice and quiet (just some noise in mornings from bin collection), but still close to Beverly Hills, etc. The place was spotless, and hosts were responsive.

Bonita Mar Vista Guest House
Great stay, Thereza was very accommodating!

Stylish Venice Hideaway/Walk to Beach&Abbot Kinney
Steps from beach as advertised...

Cozy 1 Bedroom 1 Bath Apartment
This was my second stay at Barbara’s apartment in LA, and this time I stayed there with my husband and daughter. Once again, Barbara and Gunther were welcoming and responsive, and their little cat Mau-Mau was a sweetie. I will definitely check to see if this space is available any time I am planning to visit LA. It is an amazing deal.

Modern/City views/Sunset view/FREE Parking/Balcony
Had a great solo stay at Vidal’s spot! The location was perfect—walkable, close to the beach, and easy to settle into. The place was clean, peaceful, and just like the photos. Vidal was super friendly and quick to respond, which made the whole experience smooth. Just a couple small things to keep in mind—it’s more of a studio layout with a sectioned-off bedroom space (which still worked well for me), and the bed was a bit softer than I prefer. Still, nothing that took away from a really solid stay. Would definitely come back!

Cozy, Luxurious, Oasis Parking
Neal's apartment felt like a second home from the moment my son and I walked in! This welcoming one-bedroom is filled with beautiful plants (as a huge Pothos fan, I was in heaven!), and you can tell Neal has put thoughtful details into every corner of his humble and pristine space. The location is fantastic - quiet, safe neighborhood that felt perfect for a mother-son getaway. Everything was spotlessly clean and Neal was an excellent host, making sure we checked in safely and had everything we needed. My only tiny suggestion would be adding a few more spices to the kitchen - a little garlic salt, Adobo, or paprika never hurt anybody! 😊 But honestly, that's being picky because everything else was perfect. Fun coincidence: Back in 2017 when I worked in pharma, one of my clients was Kite, whose HQ is right around the way from Neal's place. Small world! We absolutely loved our stay and would definitely return. Thank you for sharing your beautiful space with us, Neal!

Bright 1bd apt in Santa Monica w FREE parking
Very good for our needs. Convenient to and walkable to most popular Santa Monica locations. We felt very looked after by our host John. He responded within minutes to every question or request we had. The free parking was much appreciated.

Venice/Santa Monica fenced 1BR; LAX overnight
We had a wonderful two-night stay at this cozy Airbnb in a very nice and convenient part of Santa Monica. The space is thoughtfully designed and makes excellent use of every corner — even including all types of phone charging connectors, which was a great touch for travelers. The backyard is beautifully decorated, and we really enjoyed having breakfast out there both mornings. Smitha was a fantastic host — very communicative and welcoming. She even shared some fresh fruit with us, which was such a kind gesture.

Santa Monica Beach Oasis - With off street parking
This was such a fun Airbnb experience! These hosts are so sweet, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I had an odd request and they totally went out of their way to help! The entire area is gorgeous and perfectly walkable. The bed was like sleeping on a cloud. 10/10 would stay here again!

Steps to Venice Beach on a budget!
Listing was clean and as described. Location was walkable and close to many metro bike stations, where you can rent bikes for pretty cheap. I’d recommend going up north more towards Santa Monica than south towards Venice.

Stylish Modern industrial condo with Rooftop pool
Absolutely thrilled about our stay here. It’s a beautiful condo with the best LA decor. Everything was clean and comfortable. Also- Having a WORKING washing machine in an Airbnb was a game changer! The rooftop views- wow!! How cool to have a pool and hot tub on the roof! There is also no reason to feel unsafe at this location (I saw other reviews with some worries). The security at the front desk was AMAZING. They will not let anyone in that is not supposed to be in the building. They eventually know you by name and greet you. They walked me outside to show me exactly how to get to the convenient parking garage provided by the host. (The parking garage is just as secure!) I could go on and on about our experience- but it will only allow me to write so much! Thank you so much Brandon! We will be back! If you want to stay downtown LA- stay here.

NEW and Gorgeous Walk Everywhere with Garden
Very nice place to relax after a busy day in LA. The patio is beautiful and inviting. The place itself is cute and perfect for 2. An Avis car rental is literally around the corner which is super convenient. Although most restaurants and busy Santa Monica streets are not far, be aware that it is a good 20-30 mn walk through a commercial area to get there.

Malibu, Carbon Beach - Oceanfront Suite Seven
This place was absolutely beautiful with an amazing view of the water! Beach access was also great to have very close by! It was great being able to fall asleep with the sound of the waves! Amazing air bnb to stay at!

Beach Condo with Game Room 3BR/3BA
Very nice and clean place. Location is great lots to walk to beach is in your back yard

One Bdr Apt - Mins to Sony Pics and Venice Canals
I had a fantastic stay at Tianna's place. It was exactly like the pictures, right on the main street with easy access to public transport to Santa Monica beach. Parking space was a big bonus. Tianna was extremely friendly and responsive, and the house was fully stocked with anything you could need, from complementary drinks and coffee, to toiletries. 10/10 would recommend.

💎2 KING BEDS⭐️ Walk🚶♂️PIER, BEACH & 3rd St PROMENADE
John and Vincent were perfect hosts. Went out of their way to make the check in smooth, and be responsive. Their bnb is in a fantastic location, we walked everywhere , access to the beach was super easy and we were surrounded by great restaurants. My family had a wonderful break, we would go back in a heartbeat.

Luxury Top Floor DTLA Condo w/Pool *Free Parking*
Once again, Shant's place was the perfect stay! He communicates quickly, and keeps the place very clean. The rooftop pool is beautiful and relaxing! Bed is super comfortable! Having security at the entrance makes things feel extra safe! And you can't beat the free parking!!!
