Ami was extremely responsive and provided clear information and easy to understand communications at all times. I unfortunately had to make some arrangement changes, and she was understanding and considerate at all times. Thank you Ami. You are a great host!

Downtown 2BR rental- walking to beach, shops, eats

TomRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This little gem is one of the best we have stayed in when visiting Huntington Beach - and we have stayed in many. Location is perfect - short walk to beach/pier, shops and restaurants. Quiet neighborhood, but close enough to everything. We felt right at home in this comfy, cozy & clean spot and we felt it was even better than described. We loved how clean it felt. The beds were very comfortable. So much attention to details and anything you could want/need was provided. Communication was excellent and getting into the unit was a breeze. If you have any questions, their response time is super quick. We can’t say enough good things about our stay. This will be the first place we look for on our next trip to the area.

Stylish & Sunny | OceanView~Pool

ChuckieRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Probably one of the best 2 bedroom air bnb's we have booked for this price! Pictures don't even do justice for how awesome the patio is! This unit is also on the end, so there are extra windows and beautiful views over the beach. Will definitely stay here again if I'm looking for a place in LB! Bring an air mattress if you need if more than four people, but the couch is SUPER comfy too!

Gorgeous Oceanfront View / 2 Bed / 2 Bath

NancyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
If you’re looking for a beach vacation, this is the one! The views of the ocean from the balcony are spectacular! We saw stunning sunsets! We absolutely loved it, very nice totally outfitted condo. Beds and the bedding were very comfortable, which is important! Easy garage access, easy beach access, lovely beach sidewalks. Great neighborhood for restaurants. One thing that we were very happy about, the host does not allow pets. I also agree with reviewer, Mark, his December review, for additional info about the condo. All in all we really loved it here and will hopefully be back.

Beachfront Retreat Getaway

DeniseRating, 5 stars1 day ago
This was the most beautiful Airbnb we have ever stayed in. The house was clean, comfortable, and cozy. We loved all of the thoughtful touches like the coffee bar, beach towels, and throw blankets. The kids played all day with the sand toys provided. The master bedroom has incredible views. Jennifer was very communicative, informative and quick to answer.

Redondo Beach house 5 min walk to beach-Historic

MuffyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
It’s our 4th or 5th time staying at Debra’s and we’re already planning our next stay! Her home is so charming, plenty of amenities and is a great location for walking to the beach, restaurants, TJoe’s, gift shops, bars, and parks. Weather permitting, her patio, garden and yard is so pleasant and private - a great place to relax, read and just hang out. Debra was also so accommodating when my brother drove down from Nevada and stayed with us a couple days. At the tail end of our stay, her dishwasher stopped working and she’s already sent me a pic of the new DW she purchased! Obviously we love it there and can’t wait to return!

Trailside Treasures- 6 Beds (1 King) Near Disney

ValeriaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
I loved this house! I’ve stayed at multiple air bnbs in the past to go to Disneyland and so far this one is my favorite! I will definitely be booking again next time! The area is peaceful. Instructions were fair and very clear, easy to follow. Host was always communicative which made me feel comfortable knowing she was there for any emergencies. Definitely worth your money!

Ocean Boulevard Beachfront Home

KunalRating, 5 stars1 month ago
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.

San Pedro Victorian 3 BR, Spa&Garage near Port

AnnaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Roxanne's home was a very fun, very eclectic place to stay. It had a ton of charm without being overly stuffy. And yet it was probably one of the most interesting Airbnb sites I've ever stayed in -- Roxanne's passion for California history really shined through in the carefully curated spaces, nooks, and crannies of her home. The kitchen was especially amazing and incredibly well stocked. The beds were comfortable. The hot tub and courtyard were awesome. And there additional corners of the home where guests could have space and privacy to just be in 'vacation mode.' I would not hesitate to stay at Roxanne's listing again.

BRAND NEW Luxury 1 Bedroom Condo next to the Beach

DanielleRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This rental was absolutely amazing. The location couldn't have been more perfect for us - situated close to the middle of the peninsula, making walking in either direction a reasonable walk distance-wise. This rental is much closer to both the beach, and the harbor, than you would think from the photos. The house is in pristine condition...it all seems brand new. Not a speck of dust to be found. The unit even smells like a new-build. There are NO odors in the house...no horrible sprays or anything like that. Just fresh. The linens were lovely (I wish I knew where the bed coverlet is from, I want it for home!), and the bed (split-King) and pillows were wonderful. My husband is a "problem sleeper", and he slept straight through every single night, waking up feeling like a new man! Despite the people upstairs being a little noisy, the house is truly a 10 out of 10. Can't wait to go back!

I loved my stay in Long Beach. Nico has a very nice home, it is just as pictures. I was in town for a conference at the Convention Center and the walk was with-in 5-8mins, restaurants, Boardwalk and more at your finger tips. Nico's home was the perfect spot to have comfort and easy of accesso to the city and him being a very responsive and kind host made it even better.

Endless Sunset- Near Beach, Surf and Pet Friendly!

EneidaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Hi! We loved our stay and time here! All the details were well thought out, even down to having plastic baggies for us to put leftovers in. It really felt like home away from home! The hosts even had a book laminated with things to do in the area, restaurants and kid friendly activities. My toddlers loved the toys and it was a nice place to relax and enjoy our time as a family. I would stay here again no hesitation, it was such a great rental. I also wanted to say I was impressed that there were so many baby friendly and safety features. There’s even a wagon in the garage to pack stuff up and take to the beach. Literally every detail was pre planned which made this so welcoming. Loved that we could walk to the beach and to the pier from here. It really is a great location and trip! Thank you again for hosting us!
