“We loved everything about this place. The location was so great with walking distance to the beach and to Belmont Shore. The place was beautifully decorated and Suzanne provided everything we needed. We especially loved sitting outside around the fire. Suzanne was super helpful and easy to communicate with. She provided a list of local restaurants and things to do. This will definitely be our go to spot for our annual stay in Long Beach.”

Common Questions
Owner and guest questions specific to short-term rental management in Belmont Shore.
Our management fee is percentage-based — we only earn when you earn, with no upfront costs. Because every home and owner has different needs, we share exact pricing after a short consultation once we understand your property, goals, and scope of service. Interior styling is offered as a separate service when it's the right fit.
Belmont Shore is one of the stronger short-term rental neighborhoods in Long Beach, driven by coastal demand, walkability, and a year-round leisure and remote-work guest mix. Actual earnings depend on bedrooms, outdoor space, styling, and pricing strategy, so we prepare a tailored revenue projection after reviewing your home — not a generic estimate.
Yes. The City of Long Beach requires short-term rentals to be registered, and operators must collect and remit Transient Occupancy Tax. Non-primary STR permits are capped citywide, so compliance is important to protect your ability to operate. We handle the permit and tax workflow on your behalf.
Absolutely. Many of our owners live outside Long Beach, across California, or outside the state entirely. Because our team is based directly in Belmont Shore, we act as your hands on the ground — handling every guest issue, turnover, and maintenance coordination locally so distance is never a factor.
Listing creation and optimization across Airbnb, VRBO, and direct bookings; dynamic pricing; guest screening and communication; professional turnovers and restocking; maintenance coordination; STR permit and tax handling; and owner reporting. Interior styling is offered separately when the property benefits from it.
Of course. You retain full access. Just share your dates and we block the calendar accordingly. Many owners use their home for personal getaways during shoulder seasons while letting it earn during peak demand weekends.
Very. Belmont Shore is one of the most walkable neighborhoods in Long Beach. Most vacation rentals are within a few blocks of 2nd Street's restaurants and shops, and the beach is a short walk from nearly anywhere in the neighborhood. Guests rarely need a car once they arrive.
2nd Street is the main commercial corridor running through Belmont Shore. It's lined with independently owned restaurants, cafes, boutique shops, and bars spanning roughly 10 blocks. It's the social hub of the neighborhood and a major draw for vacation rental guests.
Belmont Shore Beach runs along Ocean Boulevard with multiple access points. The Belmont Pier area is the most popular, offering open sand, restrooms, and volleyball courts. Bayshore Beach on the east end is calmer and better suited for families with small children.
Belmont Shore is the top-performing vacation rental neighborhood in Long Beach. The combination of beach proximity, walkable dining and shopping, and strong leisure demand creates reliable occupancy and competitive nightly rates year-round. Simply Home manages multiple properties in the area.
Guests enjoy beach days, the Belmont Pier, biking along the boardwalk, dining on 2nd Street, kayaking in Alamitos Bay, walking to nearby Naples Island, and exploring the weekend farmers market. The neighborhood has enough to fill a long weekend without driving anywhere.
Long Beach Airport (LGB) is about 10 minutes by car. LAX is roughly 30-40 minutes depending on traffic. Many guests fly into LGB for the convenience — it's one of the easiest airports in the LA area.
Summer (June through September) is peak season with warm weather and the most activity on 2nd Street. But Belmont Shore is a year-round destination — mild winters, off-season restaurant specials, and fewer crowds make fall and spring excellent times to visit.
