Description Pacific Vinyl: Manhattan Beach

Perched directly above The Strand, this apartment puts the Pacific Ocean front and centre – floor-to-ceiling glass sliders frame unobstructed water views from the living room, and the private balcony is exactly where you'll want to be at sunset. Add in a record player and curated vinyl, and you're all set for relaxed, unhurried days. Beach gear – cruiser bikes, chairs, and boogie boards – is on-hand for adventures, and you've got plenty of coastline to choose from – the famous Strand path connects you to the wider stretch of coastline in either direction.

Home truths:
* There is no on-site parking. Free street parking is available nearby, but spaces can be hard to come by given how close you are to the beach – it's worth planning ahead if you're arriving by car.
* There is no central air conditioning here – the apartment is cooled by the ocean breeze and portable air coolers.
* While this home can accommodate one additional guest on the sofa bed, the maximum occupancy is four guests.
* Well-behaved pets are welcome to accompany you during your stay for no additional charge.
* Your host asks you to respect quiet hours between 10pm and 7am.
