I had one last day in LA to kill before hopping back on a plane, and Charlene's place was probably the best possible option!

For starters, you're only about 10-15 minutes from the airport.

But the house itself is great. It seems like most airbnb sites near the beach are studio apartments, this one is an actual one bedroom with a decent kitchen AND a garage!

Everything you could need is easily within walking distance, and the boardwalk is just a few feet down the hill.

FYI: If you're looking for beach in LA, and you don't want to be surrounded by tourists, Manhattan Beach is a good option.
