Very relaxing week. Place was just perfect for us. We had a late arrival from LAX and Jennifer allowed our daughter to check in for us. Place was very clean and was perfect for our needs. Walking distance to the beach, local shops and eating establishments. Thank you for a great week.

BrianRating, 5 stars1 day ago
Excellent Stay for Special Occasion! We had a wonderful time staying at this charming apartment during our niece's graduation in Long Beach. The location couldn't have been better - everything we needed was within easy reach, making our trip so much more convenient. The host really went above and beyond with thoughtful touches that made our stay special. The apartment came well-stocked with extra linens, a record player that added great ambiance, and a fully equipped kitchen that had everything we needed. The cozy atmosphere made it feel like a home away from home. Perfect spot for anyone visiting Long Beach - we'd definitely stay here again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Beach Getaway, Steps to Sand. Free 2 Kayaks 2 SUP

MyraRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We had a great time here! Easy to get to and we got lucky with the parking. Being so close to the beach usually has parking issues but it was not bad. It was clean and the perfect size. Appreciate the coffee, sugars and creamers. The windows were opened when we arrived so it was already pretty cool inside and only used the ceiling fans at night. It’s a very quiet area so we slept great in the very comfortable bed. Very happy to have all the beach necessities there. That was one of the reasons I chose this home. Loved having the kayaks to go around the bay looking at all the pretty beach homes. Just steps to the bay and the beach on the other side. Walking on the beach and then watching the sun set was beautiful. Would totally stay there again. Thank you John.

Your guide to Seal Beach

All About Seal Beach

Located on the coast about 45 minutes south of Los Angeles, the Orange County town of Seal Beach offers a window into Southern California’s mellower side. The state’s second-longest wooden pier juts out into a stretch of the Pacific Ocean filled with small fishing boats. And although there aren’t as many seals living here as when the town was first established, you may spot a few playing in the water early in the mornings. For guaranteed sightings, you can enjoy the seal emblems, murals, and statues that adorn the city streets.

Surfers and sun-seekers populate the town’s beachfront, and if you’re looking to explore beyond the sand, you can rent a bike and ride along the San Gabriel River Bike Trail or hike through Gum Grove Park near the Los Cerritos Wetlands.

Seal Beach’s colorful Old Town is a tree-lined pedestrian area populated by local businesses. The district hosts bakeries, cafes, ice cream parlors, and restaurants serving fresh fish and chips. Quirky gift stores offer maritime souvenirs, and you’ll find art galleries, antique shops, boutiques in town as well.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Seal Beach

Southern California is famous for year-round sun and pleasantly warm weather, and Seal Beach is no exception. Summer is the most popular season to book Seal Beach vacation rentals as the days are long and sunny, and the town is especially lively with an outdoor concert series from July through August. It’s a good idea to keep plenty of sunscreen on hand during your visit. As water temperature dips slightly in fall, a seal sighting becomes far more likely. The winters are brief, but the temperatures can get quite chilly during the evenings, so it’s best to bring warm layers. Rain is more common from January through March, but spring brings the arrival of new seal pups and the blooming fields of California poppies.


Top things to do in Seal Beach

Seal Beach Municipal Pier

Just minutes from the town center is the Municipal Pier, where you can try to spot dolphins and seals in the ocean waters below. It’s an excellent place to take in the sunset or sunrise, and you’ll find restaurants along Main Street where you can grab a bite or a drink to enjoy. With showers, restrooms, changing areas, and parking lots, this is the most accessible beachfront in town.

Old Town

If you’re looking to grab a bite or a drink, this downtown district hosts bakeries, seafood restaurants, cozy breakfast cafes, and bars, among other offerings. The shaded, tree-lined sidewalks will keep you cool as you pop into local galleries or scour shops for maritime-themed goods. Bonus if you arrive on wheels: parking for both bikes and vehicles is plentiful here.

Beaches

The town has about 1.5 miles of soft sandy shoreline to enjoy — whether that means stretching out with a good book, surfing, swimming, or taking out a boat. You’ll find numerous seashells along the main beach, making this a popular spot at low tide. You can also explore the San Gabriel River’s end at the northern beach, or observe the surfers at Surfside Beach.
