This was such a great stay. We came down from AZ to Whale watch and for a family reunion in Carson. Perfect spot and location. 15 minutes to everywhere. Its an old neighborhood that's close to the Beach which means narrow streets but I had no problem backing up the SUV into the driveway. The dogs loved the backyard. The only disappointment was the charcoal grill was covered but had not been cleaned and had spiders so that changed our plans to chill and have a cookout. Despite that it was a lovely time and a lovely place. See you again soon.

Our family of four humans (2 small kids and two adults) stayed for 5 nights at the end of July. Pros: - Kitchen was large and well stocked. Really appreciated the storage for leftovers - Access to beach chairs - Bathroom was modern, as was the kitchen -HUGE backyard - and would be incredible for dog visitors - Great AC! - Love the neighborhood! Cons: - Kitchen cabinets and drawers need a deep clean - The bedrooms need blackout curtains on all windows - the street light make the rooms bright! Maybe others wouldn't be as sensitive, but it's noticeable, especially with kids - Pillows were rough -too big and hard, & beds could use an update - This place truly would be great for folks with dogs... and it does smell like it. We got used to it, but there is a definite litter box odor. - It's a west facing backyard so the sun is raging in the afternoon - so not super great for summer afternoons. These are mostly fixable issues - we'd stay again if these were taken care of. 4/5 stars.

Great place and convenient area. House has driveway and the backyard is very cute. I asked hosts for recommendations for the 4th of July and they were super helpful and nice and gave great recommendations. House itself is very cozy. We had a great time!

I loved this home, it was close to where I was born so it was great to find a nice clean home that I could rent for a couple of days in an area I knew when I'm in town. The house was spacious enough for the six and a half of us and the backyard was lovely. The pathway to the backyard provides ample parking spaces eliminating parking concerns.

Stayed here for just under a week and had everything I needed. Short drive to the beach and no traffic in the area. House was clean and very spacious. Beds were comfy and the huge backyard with private parking was a big bonus.

We had a wonderful stay at this Long Beach house! The home was incredibly clean, well-stocked, and you could tell a lot of thought and intention went into making it comfortable for guests, something we really appreciated after traveling. The decor was super cute and it felt like such a cozy, homey place to come back to after long days at the beach. It really made the trip feel relaxing and easy. The only small piece of constructive feedback would be the size of the couch in the living room. We had a group of four, and when we came back from the beach/hiking and wanted to do movie nights together, the sofa didn’t quite accommodate everyone comfortably. Aside from that, everything else about the stay was great and we would absolutely recommend it to others visiting Long Beach.

I’ve never left a review like this so here goes: To all future guests, please treat this house with love and respect. I have never stayed at an Airbnb that felt so much like home. Cambodia town is a great neighborhood. The house has a clean modern/retro vibe that is so comfortable. Bathroom and shower hit home. Kitchen was fully functional and stocked with all that you need. Backyard and front yard are the icing on the cake. The communication and care by the hosts was wonderful. Bottom line, highly recommended and a great stay.
