About this home

A one-bedroom apartment on the lower level of a two-unit building on Highland Avenue, one block in from the sand. It has its own entrance. El Porto is the northern end of Manhattan Beach: tighter blocks, older beach apartments beside new builds, and people who come for the water. The surf break here is the most consistent in the South Bay.

Let's be honest

Home quirks we want you to know about before you book.

  1. The second bed is a pull-out sofa in the living room, not a second bedroom.
  2. No air conditioning. The ocean breeze does the work most of the year, and there is heat for winter.
  3. A separate residence sits directly above. Sound carries, and quiet hours start at 10 pm.
  4. One parking space. Street parking in El Porto fills quickly on summer weekends.

Questions guests ask

Is this an instant booking?

No. Bookings on the Open Air Homes direct site are request to book. We review each request within 24 hours and approve or decline it. Your card is held, not charged, until we approve.

Why is there an occupancy tax on my total?

Transient occupancy tax is a city tax on short stays. We collect it with your booking and pay it to the city. The exact rate for this home is in your price breakdown.

What is the cancellation policy?

You may cancel without penalty for 24 hours after your reservation is confirmed, if you booked at least 72 hours before check-in. We refund in full, including all fees, within 30 days. Stays under 28 nights (Flexible): Full refund until 14 days before check-in. 50% refund until 7 days before check-in. No refund after that. Stays of 28 nights or more (Long-term): Full refund until 30 days before check-in. Inside 30 days, the first 30 nights are owed. After check-in, the nights stayed plus 30 more nights are owed, or the rest of the stay if that is fewer. Refunds are a share of the stay price for the nights refunded, plus the matching occupancy tax.

Can I stay 30 nights or more?

Often yes, depending on the calendar. Stays of 31 nights or more sign a California Association of Realtors (CAR) rental agreement before check-in. Monthly stays start at 30 nights. Occupancy tax ends at 31 nights in Los Angeles and 29 in Palm Springs. Send a request for your dates and we will confirm.

How is booking direct different from booking on Airbnb?

Booking direct removes the guest service fee the big platforms charge, and gives you a direct line to our team. It is the same home and the same standards.

Who manages this home?

Open Air Homes manages it: guest communication, cleaning, maintenance and support during your stay. Open Air Homes, Inc. is a licensed California real estate brokerage, DRE #02164159.
