This special place is peacefully decorated with Bali and Zen influenced and yet able to enjoy everything the beach life can offer. It is located so close to everything, 3 min walk from the ocean and less than 10 min walk to downtown Manhattan Beach. This centrally located place is only 10 min drive from LAX so making it easy to plan your visit.

Manhattan beach is incredibly easy to get around and enjoy California beach life. This apartment is well maintained and near the beach and coffee shops. The owners are responsive and make the check-in check-out easy. Loved our stay!
This unit is a lovely base for any stay in the LA area. Close to LAX, close to beach attractions, easy highway access. The deck/patio was a sunny comfortable place to sit with coffee or cocktails. Loved it!
My crew and I had a great stay and this property offered great views (especially of sunsets), a well appointed kitchen for cooking, and a place to relax and recharge after a busy work day!
Pros: good location, clean, nicely appointed kitchen and baths (2), comfortable beds. Con: What the photos did not show….Most importantly, this was an apartment and parking space is below the building. The only way to the apartment was climbing 5 flights of stairs! So carrying luggage, groceries, and for us a baby, back packs, beach items, etc a couple times a day every day is something to consider. If known, we would have opted for the many nice VRBO street level houses in MB, Sunset, HB, Redondo, etc. FYI, the bunk beds are in a tiny room, not really a bedroom. The photos definitely need to be updated for accuracy.
