Reviews

  • ★☆☆☆☆

    Emily should not be able to be an air bnb host. This unit was 92 degrees at night while trying to sleep, when I asked for AC she insisted that we have to sleep with all doors and windows open. That’s a major safety hazard. Not sure who would be comfortable sleeping with all doors and windows open in a new area. When I asked for a refund and to leave, she lied to the air bnb support and tried turning it on me. She said I had a noise complaint, but could not provide any proof to air bnb support, she just tried to lie so she didn’t have to refund me. She then changed the locked on the door with all my belongings inside and stopped responding for days. She was attempting to steal my cash and high priced possessions. My bags were searched through when I finally got them. She was the worst person to work with and I highly recommend to not stay anywhere with her associated as she is a liar and a thief.

    This strand unit made for a perfect week. Beautiful views and easy beach access. There’s even a small scene of restaurants and market that allowed me to spend the whole week on foot, just as I hoped. We had a great time and look forward to coming back!

    We had a wonderful stay! The location is amazing; very walkable, with the beach just a quick hop away. Honestly, the views from the living room and balcony are so beautiful that sometimes you don’t even feel the need to leave. The house was very clean, comfortable, and well maintained, and all the amenities worked perfectly. The house rules were simple, reasonable, and easy to follow. Emily was very responsive, although we barely needed to reach out since we had everything we needed for our stay. It was also great value for the location and experience. My wife and I stayed here for our wedding anniversary, and it made the occasion feel extra special. We’d happily stay here again!

    LOCATION! The location was perfect the ocean oceanfront balcony was wonderful. Everything was absolutely what I was hoping for. The only complaint I have is the weather! I enjoyed all the restaurants, activities and of course their homemade ice cream on every corner. I’d go back in a minute and recommend it to anyone.

    My partner and I stayed here for the most relaxing-ocean-front-dreamy stay! Falling asleep and waking up to the sounds of the ocean was my favorite things about our stay. The pictures are exactly what we got with beautiful decor & spacious cozy space. Also, having a parking spot was a major plus! So many places to eat within walking distance, surfing, and a walking trail! Please know, to enter the place, you must be able to climb stairs.

    I had a phenomenal stay at Emily's place in Manhattan Beach. The apartment is right on the strand with incredible pacific views, spectacularly located and truly a rare find. The unit was spotless and very cozy, and it was so nice to fall asleep to the sound of the waves. Lastly, Emily made the process very easy and was a highly proactive host. I couldn't speak more highly about my amazing experience and would very much recommend staying at this apartment during your next trip.
