This vacation rental it is perfect. It´s directly located on the beach, it´s very clean and Ilham does everything to make your stay truly enjoyable. As opposed to some other LA locations, Manhattan Beach offers everything you need in walking distance with a sunset that is simply unbeatable. If you do not want to take the car, you can spend the day watching surfers try to beat the waves around Manhattan Beach pier or you take the bikes to Venice, Santa Monica or Redondo beach. At the rental everything is as described. WiFi, barbecue, dishwasher, washing machine etc. and everything works. Coming from Europe where vacation rental is often very simple with the entire transaction through a single website, renting directly from the owner in the US can be a little exhausting (we have made our experience, signing lot´s of waivers etc.). Not so with Ilham, everything was quick, only one rental contract and we faxed the credit card authorisation. Absolutely no surprises. We will definitely be coming back.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, sightseeing, girls getaway, families with teenagers.

The location was great but it ends there. It is a very old, dated place in great need of updating. Many things did not work and it smelled old & musty.

This is an outstanding oceanfront location, just a few steps from the center of town, on the Strand, 5 houses south of the Manhattan Beach Pier. Owner is friendly, attentive and very accommodating.

We love time on the Strand, and this is a perfect location. Great views from the living room, and a nice deck for people-watching. We made good use of the two bikes! Ilham (and Rosemary) were wonderful and accommodating.

This was the third time since our first stay in 2009. And we really, really love it: staying at Manhattan Beach in Ilhams apartment is really the highlight of the year. Manhattan Beach is the nicest beach of all the LA beaches, perhaps even in Southern California. And the apartment has everything you are looking for in your holidays: the best view on the beach (the apartment is really directly located on the beach front), the full equipped kitchen, a very comfortable bed, everything you need in the bathroom, very fast internet connection, a balcony with a bbq, bikes in the garage and: Ilham, the very helpful and super friendly owner. The weather is always good in Southern California but this year we really only had blue sky and sun and not one drop of rain. Even with the long flight from Germany we will definitely come back to our paradise in Manhattan Beach.

Just like the listing said, this property is 5 doors from the Manhattan Beach Pier, central to almost everything. We pulled into the garage, and didn't use our car the whole stay, because everything is within walking distance, Restaurants, stores, delis, the pier. Ilham is wonderful, and recommended great restaurants and events for us. I would recommend this rental unit for families and couples, it is clean and well maintained, and was just as the listing and the pictures described it.... Will definately stay here again if going back to Manhattan Beach, and recommend to our friends/family.

We just got back from a fabulous week at this property. We had rented the same one 2 years ago and couldn't wait to return. The location is fantastic and the property has everything you could want - bikes, beach chairs, a barbecue and a deck which provides the best sunset view one could want! I highly recommend this property and Ilham is a pleasure to work with - so helpful and accommodating. This will continue to be one of our favorite getaway destinations. We'll be back!

We were exceptionally pleased with this rental property. The web pictures, description, and listed information were completely accurate. No surprises! Our rental agent was available both before and during our visit to answer questions. Everyone was so friendly. We plan to stay there again and again. Everything we needed was in the unit beyond our expectations. The views are spectacular, clean and quiet, and located in the heart of activities. It's our new Manhattan Beach home away from home.

My family and I just got back from a terrific week in Manhattan Beach. We were impressed by the photos of the unit, but they honestly didn't do it justice. We couldn't of been happier with the location and the quality of the unit. This place comes with everything for a family beach vacation, next time we know just to bring our clothes.
