Steps from the SAND private suite on Peninsula

EmilyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Will was a very responsive host and had great recommendations for the area. Just be aware that since this is an attached space to the next-door neighbors, the sound from upstairs is a bit prominent like footsteps/loud sound. Couple of knick knacks like the shower door and fridge door were to be fixed, but that was acknowledged to be repaired. Otherwise, I would love to stay here again.

TopangaSTRONG, Studio w/ Hot Tub, Creek, Mtn View

NataliaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Wow, what an incredible two days! This unit truly exceeded my expectations. It had everything I needed and so much more. The beauty of the canyon left me in awe, and there was something magical about savoring breakfast while soaking in that breathtaking morning view. I felt completely at peace, especially since I didn’t come across anyone else during my stay—such a perfect sense of privacy! I can’t express how much I’d love to return and relive this wonderful experience. Thank you Mona and Daniel for everything!

Waterfront Marina View w/ Private Promenade Access

CindyRating, 5 stars5 months ago
The views are wonderful and walking around the marina is pretty. The condo is spotless. Claudia was extremely responsive throughout the rental. I see why she is Superhost. It was winter so we didn’t use the pool, but the pool area and close-by patio area with hot tub are nice. Whole Foods in Venice is great and close by, as is Costco, so we had many meals at ‘home.’ A few cons: there is no bedroom. It is a studio. No fluffy white towels in bathroom as shown. Can’t use the small balcony. Finally - not a reflection on the host at all, but the building has shared water and morning showers were not always hot. Evening showers were fine. A nice place if you want a home base away from downtown in a pretty area.

The house is ideal for visiting the area with some friends over the weekend. It is literally a stone's throw from Venice Beach area and bars such as the venice whaler. Shawn was also a responsive and attentive host, would definitely stay again!

Amazing Venice Beach House

ElaineRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
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.

Ocean/Sunset views 2Dream of /Private Home,parking

AimeeRating, 5 stars5 months ago
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 :)

Dexter’s Dockside, Long Beach Waterfront House

JimmyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
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.

Top Floor Ocean Views & 2 Car Garage Steps to Sand

BrianRating, 5 stars1 week ago
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.

This is the perfect little place right next to New Port Pier. It was clean and spacious. It was fun to be next to the pier with all the restaurants and shops. The beach is just steps away and they have a cute farmers market on Sundays. It was perfect.

CarolineRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We really enjoyed our stay at Yese's condo! It was very easy to find and get into the unit, and Yese provided clear instructions which included pictures for the parking garage. The unit itself was very clean and organized and had all of the basics! It was conveniently located for everything we had planned and within driving distance of a lot of local hotspots. Would definitely stay again, and recommend if you are looking to be in the MDR area!

LauraRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Don't stay in one of the overpriced hotels in the area. This gem of an apartment was so much more roomier and more comfortable! Lots of thoughtful touches throughout, like places to plug in chargers, and hooks just where I wanted to hang my towel.
