The same team, every apartment

We’re not a booking platform and not a franchise. We furnish, clean and look after these homes ourselves — mostly in Santa Monica, with a few further into Los Angeles and Orange County.

What we do

Hosting is the whole job

Sunset Housing looks after furnished apartments across Santa Monica, with a handful further into West Hollywood, Los Angeles, Irvine and Santa Ana. We furnish them, clean them, answer the messages and handle the arrivals.

Because it is one team across every home, the things that usually vary between rentals don’t: the linens are the same, the check-in works the same way, and the person answering you has been inside the apartment you booked.

Why book with us

Three things you won’t get on a booking site

No service fees

Booking sites add a guest fee at checkout, typically well over 10%. Book here and it isn’t there.

A real person, quickly

Message us and you reach the team that manages the building — not a support queue that has never seen the apartment.

Room to be flexible

Early check-in, a late checkout, a longer stay, a second apartment for the rest of the family. Ask us and we’ll try.

How a stay works

From booking to checkout

01

Book direct

Pick an apartment and your dates here. The price you see has no platform fee added on top.

02

Get your arrival guide

Before you arrive we send the address, the entry instructions and everything else you’ll need.

03

Let yourself in

Self check-in at any hour, so a late flight or a long drive is never a problem.

04

We’re a message away

Something missing, a question about the area, a later checkout — ask, and we’ll sort it.

“Apartment was as described, several walkable blocks away from downtown Santa Monica and the pier and a grocery store at the end of the street! Sam and Amby are gracious hosts and were very responsive when messaged throughout our stay!”

Staying a month or longer?

Relocations, work projects, time between leases — if you’re planning a month or more, get in touch rather than booking night by night. We price extended stays differently.
