Apartment vacation rentals in Santa Monica Beach

Right on the ocean was expected, but the beach disappears during high tide. Was quiet for being right on the PCH but that is Malibu. Staff was responsible and fixed a minor issue as soon as the daytime staff arrived. All-round good stay...

Great spot on the border of Hollywood and Weho in a nice neighborhood, walkable to various shops and restaurants, and very central / good freeway access to use as a base in LA. Own parking spot was a gem in this area. Kitchen was nicely appointed, and the interior of the apartment was cozy. Would definitely stay there again.

Ana Maria was very helpful with instructions and her place was super comfortable and clean. she's friendly and was able to answer any questions I had. Her place was well furnished and left instructions on how to manage all electronics and to connect to wifi as well as local restaurants. I love that she made our stay so peaceful. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place in this area.

Barbara is a very nice host and very easy to contact. She is so patient to answer my questions. It was nice to meet her and Maumau! I will definitely recommend her!

Kristi’s place is ideally located in the North End of Manhattan Beach, only a few blocks from the Strand (which we walked daily) and nearby multiple restaurants and coffee shops. Parking is on the left hand side of the driveway (not in the garage) in front of the staircase going up to the unit. There is space for two other cars in the drive (as there are two other units in the building). The living room is a comfortable common area and the ensuite bathrooms provide some additional privacy when traveling with others (bathrooms are rather small but quite functional). Kitchen is very modern, clean, and well-stocked. One bedroom has a wall heater and portable space heaters (found below the TV) offer additional heat sources for the second bedroom and the living room as needed. Kristi’s place was very clean and quite charming and she was extremely accessible any time we had questions. We would definitely stay again and look forward to the opportunity.

The Hidden Gem was my first Airbnb experience and Will has set the bar high for future Airbnb stays. The studio was in pristine condition, Will was helpful and friendly, and the location was perfect.

Bradley and his father Robert were wonderful hosts. They made us feel right at home and were incredibly helpful throughout the check-in and check-out process. Robert even gave us his personal recommendations for Manhattan Beach. The location can’t be beat and we truly can’t wait to go back and stay at this home again.

This was a business trip, so we needed a comfortable home close to where we were working. This really fit the bill. Toluca Lake is one of our favorite neighborhoods and we were able to eat in some of our favorite restaurants. All in all, a great experience.

We enjoyed our stay at Tano's bnb in Santa Monica. Located just a short walk to both Santa Monica and Venice beach the listing has all the conveniences you need in a home. I would higly recommend this listing. Ram

I entered the Airbnb in the immediate aftermath of the Altadena fire. The hosts were responsive and showed concern for my family's welfare and comfort. They were very empathetic and wanted to be sure we were safe. I appreciated that as well as the comfort of their home. Remarkably, they still had an air filter that was ready for use when many other rentals have put it away. I loved having a full kitchen and good pots and pans. The beds were comfortable and the unit was very clean. I appreciated every detail they put into this unit. Top notch in every way!

Maria’s place has everything you need for both a short and long stay, check in and out was very easy! Having on site parking is a huge plus in this area of Long Beach

This place had almost everything I needed, stylish and cozy as described. It was quite cold at night and, while there was a heating unit in the bedroom, there was none in the living room. When I asked Juan about this, he brought a space heater right away. I had the feeling that whatever things I might need, he was ready to accommodate. I made a few more minor requests and the answer was always “yes.” I really appreciated that. I would definitely book this in the future, should the opportunity arise.

The place was just beautiful with the views! Couldn’t ask for a better place to stay in Malibu. The AC was not working. Communicated with owners and he responded they would get it repaired. Didn’t happen during our stay and the afternoons were really warm inside. Overall I would stay there again!

David’s home was exactly as pictured and truly exceeded our expectations. David’s communication was quick and clear - very helpful! The location is very convenient being close to night life but not close enough to hear all the rambunctiousness. It’s incredibly close to the water and my partner and I enjoyed the very short walk to the water. Parking can be a little tight but we managed to find spots each night. I would absolutely recommend this bnb!

ever since I knew it was possible, I have wanted to rent space on the Venice canals . truly a beautiful neighborhood. 10 minute walk from the beach and the famous Venice boardwalk going all the way past Santa Monica. The apartment is compact but spacious enough for my husband and I who are large people-5’10 and 6”4 -and healthy but not svelte. The only issue was that the barstools and pub table inside were really just too small for us- more average size people wouldn’t have an issue. patio chairs are comfortable - lovely to sit out there with coffee or a book. If unfamiliar with the area, be aware that sidewalks along the canals pass within inches of back patio & are considered public so there is foot traffic esp on Sat/Sun. It’s very secure/safe with locked gates. I consider this to be part of the charm but be advised. I had a couple of convos with passers by, mostly about their dogs. rest of rental is very private, water is hot and bed comfy.

We, a couple, stayed one night. The accommodations were as described on the website - comfortable and clean. The view of the mountains was lovely.

Very spacious unit. Big and well laid out. And clean. Great location. The listing doesn’t mention that you have to go across the street to get to the pool, so you should be aware of that ahead of time.

Great location. Quiet place even though in busy area. Great brunch and coffee shop on the premises.

Nice place. The building is very confusing. My girlfriend didn’t feel very safe in the garage, since there’s drug consumption and lots of dark corners. But to be clear: This is not the Mona’s fault!

Such a gorgeous and peaceful space; I loved the piano and water views as well as other artistic touches. Communication was excellent and the place was very clean; I highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in Marina del Rey!

Second time I've stayed at this unit. The close proximity to the UCLA campus with private (underground) parking is fantastic. The unit is clean, quiet and well furnished and equipped. Always like to stay here when I'm visiting my son at UCLA.

First of all; we had a great stay. So worth it. Loved the apartment and especially the view. But I have a PSA for all the single ladies traveling to LA and arriving at night; it is not uncommon for landlords to use lock boxes to get your key in Los Angeles. We got in at night, needed to access a lock bock to get the apartment key fob. The lock box just happened to be surrounded by several homeless people. I didn't have to deal with it because my husband did, BUT if I was by myself doing this at night, I wouldn't have been comfortable. My recommendation is to get in during the day, where the streets are mostly clear and feel really safe. That being said Dmytro is beyond accommodating and I feel like he would help in any way possible. Would totally stay again.

This place was perfect! We were attending an event nearby & it was a short walk. The views were beautiful and relaxing. I would definitely book again.

Very happy with stay. Super helpful host.
