As a former local to the area, staying in Manhattan Beach is often a little hard when it comes to the very few hotel options available that definitely leave you feeling like a tourist. Staying at Mike & Britta’s beautiful home just blocks from the strand made Manhattan Beach feel like home again, so much so we didn’t want to leave. As hosts, Mike & Britta are the best. Their instructions, amenities, home layout, location & kindness are unparalleled. Honestly, one of the best and most relaxing family trips we have ever had to a beach we once called home. Grateful, blessed, and already homesick for the beach life.

Just an enjoyable and fantastic stay all around. The house was spotless! The furniture was new, clean and stylish Loved the kitchen - so beautiful and well designed. Such a treat to use. Even the garage looked brand new and spotless. Also, it was well stocked with beach items. The views were better than the posted pictures. The evening sunsets were lovely and we spent a lot of time in the main room taking in the views. The location was very quiet and an easy walk to fabulous restaurants and coffee shops. The owner was responsive and easy to work with. Just a breeze. Thank you for sharing your lovely beach house with us! Kudos - such a magical and relaxing stay!

Spent a week and will rent again! Great house and location. Well stocked, clean and views of ocean.

The property manager (Britta) was responsive and helpful. The home was clean, orderly, and well suited for our stay. Lovely view and great neighborhood. No doubt we would stay again.

Wonderful home in Manhattan Beach. Location was a short walk to downtown Manhattan Beach and to the strand. Close to the airport and it’s LA after all everything else is a drive. Beds were so comfortable. Nicely equipped in every room. The home was beautiful and the view was breathtaking. We loved everything about this home and the owner was super easy to chat with. Love that they let you leave behind any nonperishables(drinks) for the next guest. Great home, great location and we had a great time in LA staying here.

2 week stay in the house and everything from the views of the ocean, location, and supplies were excellent. The owner, Britta, was tremendously helpful in navigating restaurants, wine stores, grocery stores and anything that was needed. I felt like we had a built in tour guide - she was really quick to respond. The house has everything and even bikes that we frequently used. She was terrific to work with from the initial contact all the way through our stay. Views - the top floor with kitchen and living room has phenomenal views all day and to take in the sunset every evening. Location - 10 blocks to the main center of MB...convenient enough for an easy walk and out of the area of any noise at night. Britta - thanks for a wonderful stay at your house! We hope to be back next yr!

We stayed at Britta's Manhattan Beach home for a little over a month in February 2022, to get away from the chilly Chicago winter while my husband worked remotely. We had friends from Chicago visit on weekends, and enjoyed being so close (3 blocks) to the beach, and lots of walks and bike rides on the strand! The garage has 2 beach bikes and 4 beach chairs that we used quite often. The location was also perfect for walking to restaurants, shops, and the grocery store. (We didn't have a car). The deck off of the living room had amazing views, and we enjoyed sitting out there for sunsets almost every night. The high-end gourmet kitchen has almost everything you could possibly need, and was spacious enough for entertaining. The bedrooms and bathrooms were perfect for us. Beds were very comfortable, and bathrooms had plenty of hot water, lots of towels, and gorgeous tile! Britta was very responsive when we had questions or concerns. We hope to be able to spend part of next winter there too!

From the time I made the booking, everything was truly, truly wonderful. Britta was very responsive to questions, and went above and beyond for our family. She installed baby gates, bought a high chair and a pack n play, and even left a few small gifts for us upon arrival. In addition to her lovely welcome, the house itself is everything you’d want in a vacation. The location makes for easy access to the beach (3 blocks I believe), several playgrounds, and restaurants within a few blocks north and south. The decor and appliances are all modern, everything feels fresh and new. And best of all, the view! The living room and kitchen are on the top floor with glass doors to the balcony that slide open all the way to an incredible view of the ocean. We had one small issue with the a/c and Britta had it fixed within a day. No complaints, all compliments, we felt really lucky to stay here.
