Wonderful property just steps the Strand and beach. Very convenient location and close to many restaurants coffee shops and other shopping. Will book this place again on my next Manhattan Beach visit
The house is adorable and walking distance to the water and strand. If you plan on getting in the water bring towels and gear. There is none at the property.

Inquired about the broken ice maker and the smell of cats in the unit. Was only answered once that it was a Sunday and I would hear back next business day. Never heard back for the remainder of our stay. Listing also had a ocean view from the balcony which was not the case.Poor communication.
