Property details

Come live the sunny & relaxing SoCal life in my sunny beach getaway, two blocks from the beach, walking distance to restaurants and cafes. Biking or walking along the whole beach is moments away.

Come live the sunny SoCal life in my sunny beach getaway.
Parking is tricky in all Long Beach neighborhoods including this one, so (NO, SERIOUSLY) skip renting a car and use Lyft/Uber. In order to have a wonderful stay, do not attempt to park after 4pm; I promise it is really tricky!
Enjoy the best of both worlds as we're just two blocks from the beach and two blocks from downtown. It's a quick Lyft to the Convention Center, or walk to bars, restaurants.
Each morning, make yourself at home to my tea and coffee bar. Choose from fair trade arabica means for a delicious french press, or a wide variety of teas.
The front bedroom features a heavenly queen size mattress on a platform bed. Think of this as your beach getaway with a vintage skyline. Flowing linens cover the windows giving a beachy feel to the room.
The second bedroom is a dreamland with a queen bed tucked on the quiet end of the house. Think of this cozy room as a beach hideaway.
In the evening (after your walk on the beach), enjoy a large flat screen tv equipped with apps such as Hulu and Netflix.
-Full-service bathroom supplies: In addition to fresh towels, you have a selection of shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and a blow dryer. You'll pretty much just needs clothes!
-Beach supplies: Grab a chair and a frisbee and hit the sand. The beach is just two blocks away so who can resist!?
- Lending library: Borrow some of my personal favorites for the beach or to read in bed at night. Feel free to add to the collection if you have a book you'd like to share with the world.
- Game supply: Pass an evening with your pals sipping wine and playing board games.
-More common area seating: I've updated the common spaces to include additional relaxing space.
This building was built in the turn of the century, making it a beautiful vintage style home. Keep your eye open throughout the apartment for vintage furniture, hand reupholstered treasures, and personal touches that come from my love of design. Due to the fact that the building was built around WWI, you'll hear a few creaks and signs of age, but my past guests have loved the charm of this welcoming space.

You will have full private access to a 2 bedroom, one bath apartment (including kitchen, living room, and a small utility room where I store cleaning supplies). This apartment is in a 4 unit apartment building with all other units being occupied by full time residents.

Absolutely an adorable space, loved the LGBTQ+ friendly area. Kate was on point when we had an issue with AC and helping us reset the breaker box when it got super hot. Super close walking distant to the beach and restaurante and nightlife super close by. 10/10 recommend staying again.💓🍍

Home is obviously older 1920 as described but photos show updated large windows with light. Home actually has original windows you can’t open and her to let any light in as they are 2 windows per wall not one. Wasn’t disappointed because of the price but wasn’t extremely satisfied either
