With a sweeping view of Ballona Wetlands and the twinkling lights of LA on the distant horizon, guests staying at this Playa Del Rey mansion are presented with a choice — take in this mesmerising panorama from the roof terrace or from the comfort of the hot tub? This is the sort of difficult decision you're constantly faced with at this five-storey mansion. Do you spend the afternoon sweating away in the sauna or potting balls on the pool table? Evening cocktails out on the balcony or around the home's inbuilt circular bar area? Fire up the barbecue for dinner or make the twenty-minute drive to Venice Beach and explore the range of bars and restaurants there? Thanks to the array of amenities at this address, there will undoubtedly be a lot of weighing up of different options, but guests will soon find that it's a welcome position to find themselves in.

This wonderful home is in the highly sought-after neighbourhood of Silver Strand, just a few steps from Grand Canal Esplanade and its beaches. High ceilings and huge windows fill the home with light, while fireplaces keep things cosy after dark. We love the rooftop terrace with mountain views, as well as the balcony that looks out over the patio and gardens. Your host can help arrange spa treatments and private chefs to make your stay all the more special.

Nice to haves

Realtors use the term ‘walk score’ to determine the quality of life in a house without a car – and we're scoring this beautiful Venice home a whopping 100%! Its location just five minutes from Abbott Kinney, dozens of shopping boutiques, Venice Beach and the Venice Canals makes this home's locale incredibly hard to beat. Inside, the interiors are newly renovated and feature laid-back Melbourne styling influences as well as occasional oriental accents dotted around the home in the form of artwork and antique pieces. We particularly love the super sociable kitchen and dining room area, with its huge open space, guests can enjoy cooking sessions together or more simple aperitifs either at the long dining table or perched around the sleek kitchen island. With plenty of natural light flowing through the home, there's no need to go outside to benefit from the California sunshine, as the serene setting allows you to wake up feeling all the more refreshed and energised with reach and every day spent here.

Soaring ceilings and sophisticated amenities await at this home in Venice Beach. It's the perfect location, a twenty-minute walk from the boardwalk and beach. There isn't a pool here, but the roof terrace makes up for that. You can unwind with a glass of wine, gather by the fire, and strike up the barbecue for an alfresco meal as the sun goes down. Indoors, you'll find three floors of living space. The main suite is on the top floor, with a soaking tub for extra relaxation. That's all our boxes ticked.

This classic Venice bungalow is all about those Californian good vibes. Dating back to the 1920s the home echoes the bohemian nature of the neighbourhood, with an authentic, laid-back feel and an eclectic mix of vintage furniture. Inside, there are period features like the pretty arched window and the wood floor, along with a fully equipped kitchen and two bedrooms. But it's the garden that's the real selling point here. Green, secluded and quirky in its own uniquely Venice way, it's a place to escape with your friends and family. Eat at the outdoor dining table, light the fire pit and sit out under the string lights at night. In the morning, grab one of the home's bikes and cycle down to the beach, or bring your boards and head out for a day surfing. A converted garage provides an extra studio bedroom for two in the garden, which can be rented along with the main house. A half-hour stroll from Abbot Kinney Boulevard and all its shops, restaurants and galleries, there’s always something to do in this buzzing part of LA.

Set aback from the hustle and bustle of the more popular Venice neighbourhoods, this charming home provides a peaceful stay in a residential area, while still being a short drive or bike ride away from the beach. The tasteful design of this home has optimised the space, utilising  the high-ceilings and wooden beams. The art collection is also a distinctive feature, as most of the works are by friends of the host or local artists. The home's character also extends to the large outdoor area which is ideal for socialising on lazy summer evenings.

This Venice home is the total package – it’s a beautifully designed space with an incredibly warm and hospitable host. You’ll feel at ease as soon as you arrive, thanks to its high-end furnishings and unique artwork. Begin mindful mornings in the meditation room as the professional-grade coffee machine warms up in the well-appointed kitchen. And when you’re ready for breakfast, come together at the velvet dining nook for a bite to eat. On sunny afternoons, while away the hours in the tranquil outside space. Sway with the breeze on the hanging couch or unwind in the private hot tub. If you’d like to stretch your legs, you’ll find the fashionable Abbot Kinney Boulevard a twelve-minute walk away. Better still, the iconic Venice Beach is a twenty-two-minute stroll from your doorstep – or a six-minute bike ride – your host has left two beach cruisers at the abode for you to use.

Sweeping views await at this penthouse apartment. It's perched right by the water in Marina Del Rey, and thanks to floor-to-ceiling glass walls, you'll be treated to non-stop ocean vistas no matter the time of day. A private balcony is ideal for alfresco sundowners and watching the hustle and bustle of the marina. Head inside, and you can lounge in the bright living area or gaze further afield with the telescope. There are a few quirks here, though. The main bedroom is open to the living space below, and the blinds don't block out the sunlight. But, with Venice Beach a five-minute drive away and panoramas aplenty, it's an excellent option for a getaway on the coast.

Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.

Ten blocks from white sandy beaches, or a short stroll away from the Venice Boardwalk, you'll never be short of activities at this Santa Monica home. Your attentive hosts have provided all the beach basics too – bags, chairs and beach towels. There’s a zen calm to the home, where a Baddha stands in prayer and sprouting grass adds a touch of natural green to the living room. Though you’re on the edge of the city here, big windows show off a view of trees. There’s a quiet little roof terrace, where greenery creeps over the wall and two comfy chairs provide the perfect cocktail spot. Up the spiral staircase, both bedrooms are decorated in the ink-black and parchment white of Japanese zen and the master has a desk in the sunny window.

Get a taste of California living at A Peachy Life. From the 1950s inspired kitchen (including a retro-style kitchen booth), to the relaxing and lush back garden, this home fully embodies the southern Californian lifestyle. There’s no private spot to park your car, but the host kindly offers the use of bicycles, so you’ll be fully equipped to live that Cali life outside of the home as well. Why not cycle over to the Venice Beach Boardwalk and see where the day takes you – if you’re very dedicated, you can reach stunning Malibu in just under two hours.

This Venice home is an absolute delight. The proportions and layout are lovely, it's flooded with natural light, has great eco-credentials and it has a private and peaceful outdoor space. Stylishly decorated with a mid-century modern feel, and just a five-minute drive away from the beach, this place is pretty easy to love. Its recent redesign has made it sustainable – there's solar power and an osmosis water filtration system – and created a guesthouse we'd be thrilled to call home for a while. Sit in front of the gas flame fireplace, rustle up a meal in the kitchen (it's a bit retro but we love it) and sit out under the stars in your pretty garden – the soothing sound of the water feature will soon have you ready for bed. Just a short drive or a thirty-minute walk from the beach, you'll probably be heading down there most days. Santa Monica is very close by and it's just a twenty-five-minute drive from Hollywood. You'll also be able to stroll to some of the best bars and restaurants in LA on Abbot Kinney Boulevard and Rose Avenue.

Exquisitely designed and situated a fifteen-minute walk from the warm sands of Venice Beach, this contemporary bungalow is an ultra-modern delight hidden behind a humble timber-framed facade. Pristine white and sleek black tones, including the porch's checkered floor tiles, make for a monochrome-themed pad that’s as aesthetically pleasing as it is relaxing. 

We absolutely love how the home's design blurs the lines between indoors and outdoors. The living room opens up to a small terrace by way of a disappearing glass wall, making for a tranquil space that allows you to savour the fresh air from the comfort of your cosy sofa. When you get the urge to explore your local area, a short stroll will take you to the Abbot Kinney Boulevard strip where you’ll find a range of trendy boutiques and buzzy restaurants.

A contemporary home with a seventies soul, this house just fifteen minutes from Venice Beach presents a stylish space to kick back in between exploring the sights of both Los Angeles and Santa Monica. 

Mid-century furnishings and bohemian designs are featured in an open plan layout, creating a sociable and stylish main living area and kitchen that overlooks the gorgeous garden. 

It's this leafy green setting that we particularly love about this home, where you'll find citrus trees, a swaying hammock and a laid-back lounge area – perfect for chilling out with a glass of Californian wine in hand. With a barbecue, fire pit and ping pong table to enjoy, you could easily spend long summer evenings in this haven of peace. 

If you do feel like venturing out, drive down to Venice beach to catch the sunset and a bite to eat, or better still, why not explore Santa Monica on two wheels? There's plenty of bike storage space if you decide to rent or bring your own bikes here.

It’s easy to forget how big LA is, and that even places in Venice might be a half-hour walk from the beach. Hertford Union overlooks the canals, and the sea is less than five minutes away on foot. It’s big, the kind of thing that naturally comes to mind when you think of LA. There are white walls, terraces, greenery, exposed wood. It’s also kept in wonderful condition, and you can see that this is a matter of pride for the hosts, Trevor and Lauren.

This stunning Venetian sanctuary has been home to Hollywood legends and it’s not hard to see why. Besides its striking design, the house boasts amazing features such as several outdoor terraces, including a rooftop one complete with fire pit and 360 views. With Abbott Kinney Boulevard on your doorstep, you can shop to your heart’s content and stop off for a coffee at a number of cafes. Venice Beach is but a seven-minute walk away, or you could spend the day in downtown L.A. Once you stay at this home, you may never want to leave.

Even though this home has a bit of a New England feel to it, once you step outside, you will be in no doubt that it's in Santa Monica. It’s on a hidden walkway off the main road — which gives it a sense of privacy — and the beach is only two minutes' walk away. The Pier and Muscle Beach only takes ten on foot, too. Back inside, the interior has been designed to feel beachy but in a way you’d associate more with the East Coast — think vaulted ceilings, fireplaces and soft pastels. The huge kitchen will be a highlight for those with culinary talents and if the weather's nice — which we're going to wager it will be — you can serve up dinner outside on the private patio. Better still, there's a barbecue for grilling up some meaty flavours to grateful guests.

Right in the beating heart of Venice, yet situated on one of the quietest and most picturesque streets in the neighbourhood, this seaside home is a tranquil haven. Skylights illuminate the rooms, decorated in neutral tones with pleasing dusky pinks, soft blues and sandy tones to echo the coastal surroundings and unforgettable LA sunsets. Your host has made great use of small nooks and inaccessible corners to create mini sanctuaries within the larger seating area and by the doors into the courtyard garden. Wooden floors, jute rugs and an abundance of greenery all contribute to creating that all-important connection with nature and making you feel at peace.

Explore the neighbourhood, and you'll find any number of fabulous cafes, bars and restaurants right on your doorstep. Local standouts include Felix Trattoria and Plant Food + Wine, both just a few minutes away on foot. You're about a half-mile from the shore and the famed Venice Skatepark facing the ocean if you head towards the coast. Head to a rooftop bar to take in the vistas while sipping a cocktail in the balmy weather - the ideal way to cap off a beautiful day.


Dance to Your Own Drum

We love this home both for its incredible location and impeccable styling – your oasis will be just a five-minute walk from the canals, eight minutes from the dining and shopping of Abbot Kinney Boulevard and a fifteen-minute walk from the beach. Back at home, start your day with yoga or stretching on the beautifully green rooftop terrace with a view of the neighbourhood. Then head down to the kitchen, fix yourself some breakfast and coffee, ferrying it out to the chic garden to enjoy. Inside, the home has a beautiful modern design to it, with polished concrete walls and large grided windows. The space feels bright and clear-headed at the same time as it’s inviting and cosy – especially with the giant velvet blue velvet in the living area. Peruse the shelves lined with art books, before plopping down onto the sofa for an afternoon read. At the end of the day, comfortable, bright bedrooms await with the promise of restful sleep.

Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.

With an interior curated by a local artist, this single-floor home in the heart of Santa Monica is a stylish retreat ideal for extended stays. Close to the 10 Freeway, you're connected to LA's heart here, while also being a short walk from sandy beaches and promenades. The front porch is the perfect spot to enjoy an evening drink as you meet the neighbours, while the open-plan living area and sofa bed are perfect for hosting a few friends during longer stays.

Organic, sustainable, and carbon-free materials have never come together so nicely as at this modern LA apartment. It's the perfect blend of effortless So-Cal design, Moroccan accents, and a 70s-chic interior that makes for an oasis of calm and revitalisation. Your host’s background in property and architecture can truly be sensed in the quality of this home, with sleek sliding glass doors, pristine lines and the smooth outside decking area that will have you moving seamlessly from indoor to outdoor. Speaking of, the garden benefits from a canopy of lush trees, cacti and palm leaves to create a tranquil and private pocket of intimacy for you and a friend or loved one. With the added benefits of the sun-loungers, hammock, and fireplace, we know where we'd spend most of our time. Combined with a simply amazing location – you're a twenty-three walk from the sand, sea, and surf of Venice Beach – this home ticks all the boxes, and while it may have a small footprint, it's made a very big and long-lasting impression on us at Plum.

We fell in love with this home based on the location alone, even before crossing the threshold. Just a stone's throw from the beach, you can easily jump in the ocean before breakfast. You're conveniently located just one block from Main St, where you'll find indie boutiques, charming cafes and Michelin-recognised restaurants. The home itself is equally breathtaking – we adore the double-height living space with a sea view. It's exceptionally stylish, brimming with character. The amount of art hanging on the walls would put some galleries to shame. It's definitely a home that makes you want to know its owners – a truly unique place to stay and one that's ready for its Instagram close-up.

This bungalow has a quiet charm that can be hard to find in vibrant Venice. Built in the early 1900s, this cottage-like retreat takes you back to a carefree time where you hardly realise you're in the sprawling metropolis of Los Angeles. As you arrive under the leafy trellis, you’ll want to stop for a cool iced tea on the wooden slatted porch. Sitting out at this shady spot, the delicate, grey-blue painted exterior and white detailing reminds you of ocean surf lapping the sand. Inside, while clean, fresh, and modern, we love unique touches like the decorative brick fireplace, and record sleeves on the walls such as Janis Joplin, bringing that sixties California feel into the home. More beach vibes continue the more you look – the host even provides beach towels for guests, plus sand toys for the little ones, so you’ll be ocean-ready from the offset. Venice Beach and its famous boardwalk is a five-minute walk from your beautiful bungalow, while Santa Monica Beach is just over two miles away. You can cruise over there by car, hire a bike, or take a walk from your neighbourhood – a pleasant stroll past health-food cafés, surf boutiques, and beach-side restaurants.

Sittin' Pretty

Games Room

Nestled in the eclectic neighbourhood of Venice, this modern home is the perfect setting for a family holiday or a getaway with friends. The space is contemporary yet warm and inviting, with everything you need for a memorable LA stay. 

The outdoor space here is glorious. Tall hedges and trees shelter the garden, so it’s a secluded little oasis. Soak up the LA sunshine as you swim in the waterfall swimming pool or relax in the Jacuzzi. There’s also an outdoor fireplace, so you can spend alfresco evenings sipping wine and catching up. 

There’s a lovely indoor-outdoor vibe here, whether you’re enjoying your meals at the dining table with the sliding doors open, or spending quiet mornings sipping coffee curled up on the deck. We especially like that the kitchen faces out to the garden. 

Downstairs, you’ll find an incredible games room – it’s the home’s hidden gem. It includes a comfy lounge and its very own bar, as well as a shuffleboard table. Head out to dine in a chic restaurant on Abbot Kinney boulevard – it’s only a three-minute drive – and return here afterward for a nightcap or two. If all the sunshine makes you crave a day at the beach, you’re in luck. Santa Monica beach is just nine minutes away, so you can paddle in the shallows or stroll along the shore to your heart’s content.

Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.
