Charming Montecito Studio Peaceful & Private
Place was great! Comfy, peaceful, had great vibes and looked exactly like the pictures. Will def stay again!

Secluded, private, safe dog friendly cottage
It's a beautiful spot to explore Montecito - highly recommend staying here!

Malibu Beach House Private Beach Last Minute DEAL!
I would go back again and again! I was lucky to get the dates and times it presented and I took it! So glad I did! The waves cleared my mind and the sunset was beautiful. The beach walk was so peaceful and I felt like it was just my personal ocean (hardly no one in sight). Thank you Amber for allowing me the opportunity to stay in this castle! I will be back!

MODERN SLVER STRAND BEACH HOUSE STEP2SAND SLEEP 10
We had such an amazing weekend! The house was even better than the pictures—super cozy, clean, and stocked with everything we could possibly need. It had all the perfect touches that made it feel like a home away from home. Sarah was such a great host—so kind, easy to communicate with, and made sure we had a smooth and comfortable stay. Would 100% stay here again!

The Beach House at Silver Strand, Channel Islands
Great house for our family. All adult children had their own bedrooms, kitchen was well stocked and we enjoyed the rooftop patio. Very close to the beach, just 1 minute walk.

Cute Mid-Century Beach Side Bungalow | Beachside
visiting a friend in Oxnard. We were lucky enough to find Kristi's Beach Bungalow. what a cute and well decorated cottage! The outside living areas truly complimented to cozy comfy interior. Even Better it is only .9 miles from the Rudder room, as me how I know. 🙂

Summerland Nest, Ocean + Canyon Views
Sam and Robin were the the perfect hosts; available and responsive (not that we needed anything), but also respectful of our space. We had a great week exploring Santa Barbara County.

Shoreline Cottage- Ocean Views, remodeled, Dog OK
Shoreline was beautiful and in a great location. This is what an airbnb should be. The company that ran the rental is very proactive and great at responding. I would rent again.

Ocean View Steps to the Sand! Luxury 2 bdrm Condo
Comfortable place in a quiet complex with private entry to the beach. Convenient location to explore the area from.

NEW Sandbox Solimar Sands, Steps from the Beach!
We had a great stay at Solimar Sands with our family. A few highlights: proximity to the beach, loaded beach gear closet with toys, chairs, cooler bag etc, and the clean bright space. One thing we didn’t realize ahead of time was that beach towels aren’t provided so just a note to pack your own if possible! Otherwise we had everything we needed and enjoyed our stay.

Surfside Zen Steps to the Beach!
We loved our stay. It was a wonderful spot for our family to find peace during a trying time. A few short minutes from a very lightly trafficked beach; we could not have asked for a better place to stay. We are so grateful for the accommodations!

Steps to beach/Pool/EV charger/Parking/King bed
Our family had a wonderful time at this space. The unit was comfortable, spacious and very well stocked. We enjoyed the short hike along the bluffs to watch dolphins and seals. We spent hours on the wonderful beach steps away. The comfortable heated pool and hot tub were a great way to end the day. We would love to return one day.

Carpinteria Cozort Beach Properties #30
Rob is definitely a super host, and the location is so enjoyable, with walking distance to the sand, and town! My fiance and I will definitely look forward to another stay, and recommend this place to anyone looking for a calm relaxing get away.

Spectacular Beach Retreat 3Bd/2Bth + Ocean View
We enjoyed our time here very much.. . It felt welcoming and cozy from the moment we arrived. Suneetha is a fantastic host she is very responsive, friendly, and puts so much care into making her guests feel comfortable. It was truly a great experience. Thank you Suneetha!

Charming Coastal Getaway
Great trip, location and price. Loved it.

Spring special! Condo w patio 150 steps from sand
Amanda’s place was exactly what we were looking for— calm, close to the beach, walkable, and comfortable. We stayed there with our son (8 months), and Amanda provided us a crib, seat, and bathtub which made our stay that much easier. Would recommend to anyone looking for a place next to the beach with their partner or small family.

Montecito 2br Retreat
Great place in a nice little neighborhood pocket that is still walkable to shops/beach. Hosts were responsive and accommodating to our needs with a baby. Would definitely recommend this listing and hope to stay again.

Steps to Sand! 4Bed/4Bath Home, Ocean View Deck
Great location! Beach was only a few minutes walk. Neighborhood felt very safe and was quiet, with exception of the daily national anthem coming from the nearby naval base. The house is stocking with everything you would need to make big family meals and anything you might want for beach play. Our grown kids LOVED the ping pong table in the garage!

30%OFF LMT! Malibu Ocean Wave, Walk to Beach, King
Great host, very responsive and pro-active. Location is really great with sea view. Nice size of bedroom and living area. Nice shower. Bess provided all necessary toiletries, like shampoo, conditioner, shower gels, etc… Furniture are a bit old but it remains comfortable. Cutleries, plates and glasses could be improved. There was only one glass for wine. I was alone, do it was ok, but still… Very happy overall and I am strongly recommending Bess place. Will gladly come back.

One of a kind ! ! !
I cannot put in words what a fantastic experience we had! Absolutely lovely place with everything you could need and more! Beautiful design, great amenities, fantastic location! Would stay again in a heartbeat!

THE GETAWAY - Beachfront retreat in Pierpont Bay.
We will often try to find a “deal” near to, but not exactly on the beach - this time around we decided to find a place right on the beach, and we can say without hesitation it was entirely worth the small uptick in price and that we would do it again and again. The condo is amazing - you are literally a few feet from the sand, with nothing blocking your view or access of the ocean. The beach is huge, with ample space to find your own little comfortable spot, and within easy reach of the condo for snacks and refreshments. The interior space is well laid out, with lots of space, super up-to-date kitchen, and plenty of room to sleep our family of 5. Everything worked as expected and everything we needed was within arms reach. Plus, there’s a “gear room” of sorts with all kinds of games, sand toys, beach chairs, and bikes. We had zero concerns or complaints here - only good experiences. We do want to express gratitude to Daniel, as he is super responsive and helpful!

Casa Conchita: Modern home with private beach
This place is one to go back to. The home is beautiful, the view and location are awesome. The accessibility to the beach is so fun. Our family had an amazing time here. It had everything we needed to enjoy the house and ourselves. I highly recommend it.

Remodeled beach home, sleeps 6-8. Steps to ocean
Great location, easy access to the beach and restaurants. spotless place

Private Malibu Escape: Walk to Secluded Beach
As frequent visitors to the area, my wife & I loved the no TV, very private, and serene location of this hidden gem behind a gate in Malibu. We look forward to our next trip & we will definitely try to stay at this Broad Beach home again.
