Designer 1BR + Open King Loft | Walk to Beach

Summary:

A designer 1,100 sq. ft. Manhattan Beach suite with a private queen bedroom plus an open king sleeping loft with ladder access — offering more space and sleeping flexibility than a typical one-bedroom. Enjoy a full kitchen, living room with fireplace and Frame TV, and 1.5 baths. About 0.5 miles from the beach and The Strand. Ideal for couples or friends; sleeps up to four.



The Space:

More space than your typical beach one-bedroom.



This 1,100-square-foot Manhattan Beach suite combines designer coastal interiors with one private queen bedroom plus an open king sleeping loft — a second sleeping area most one-bedroom stays don't offer. A long balcony leads to your private entrance and into the bright, thoughtfully designed living space.



The living room features warm hardwood floors, designer boucle furnishings, a white brick fireplace, and Samsung Frame TV. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need for meals at home, while the dining nook is perfect for morning coffee or a relaxed dinner after the beach.

The private bedroom features a plush queen bed, soft drapery, ceiling fan, and storage.



For additional sleeping space, the home features an open king sleeping loft, reached by a fixed vertical ladder. The wood-clad loft has a floor-level king bed and gives the suite something most one-bedroom stays don't: a separate sleeping area and extra flexibility for groups of up to four.



The loft is open to the living space and is not enclosed by a door. Because access is via a steep vertical ladder, it is best suited to adults and older teens who are comfortable climbing it. Guests who need two conventional private bedrooms or have mobility limitations should consider whether this unique layout is right for their stay.



Throughout the suite, natural light, warm wood details, and thoughtfully selected furnishings create a polished coastal feel that's comfortable, relaxed, and distinctly Manhattan Beach.
