Venice Beach Airbnb Management
Venice-Based. Guest-Focused. 90291.
Venice Beach Airbnb management by Open Air Homes is run from our office on Brooks Avenue, two blocks from Abbot Kinney. We do not manage Venice from a distance. We live here, work here, and know this neighborhood block by block.
Whether your home qualifies for a short-term rental permit inside the Coastal Commission zone or needs a monthly rental strategy (30+ nights), we build a plan that keeps you compliant and earning. In 2026, platforms like Airbnb are using AI to push top-performing listings to the top of search results. We help your home compete.
By The Numbers: 2025 In Review
How We Stack Up Against the Market
Our Los Angeles portfolio booked 70.1% of available nights in 2025, compared to 44% among similar listings within Airbnb. In the most competitive short-term rental market in California, this performance reflects disciplined pricing, review velocity, and consistent operational execution.
Dynamic pricing, pet-friendly positioning, and a focus on longer stays help us extract more value from each calendar while protecting peak-season rates and guest quality.
Our listings averaged 120% more page views than comparable homes during Jan ’25 → Jan ’26, according to data collected through Airbnb.
High-impact photography, A/B-tested headlines, and dynamic pricing tools keep us locked above the fold, reaching travelers before they even start filtering.
Our listings appeared on page one 56.5% of the time in 2025, compared to 26% for similar listings on Airbnb.
This consistent placement reflects pricing discipline, photography quality, and review velocity across our portfolio.
Our listings converted at 0.30% in 2025, compared to 0.16% for similar listings on Airbnb. That gap represents an 88% conversion advantage, up from 60% in 2024.
Higher conversion means more bookings from the same traffic, translating directly into higher occupancy and net revenue.
Our guests stayed an average of 10.9 days in 2025, compared to 5.5 days for similar listings on Airbnb.
This nearly 2x advantage reflects intentional design, pricing strategy, and a belief that longer stays are the future of short-term rentals.
Venice Vibe, Proven Demand in 90291
What Draws Week-Long and Monthly Guests Alike
Venice is our top performing market. It is also a food-lover’s corridor. Morning espresso at Intelligentsia, Blue Bottle, or Groundwork. Sunset dinners at Gjelina, Felix, or Ospi. Culture on foot with Boardwalk murals, the Venice Canals, and First Friday food-truck gatherings. It is ten minutes to Santa Monica offices, twenty to LAX, and one quick PCH hop to Malibu surf.
That mix keeps calendars full year-round. Families book spring break. Remote-work couples settle in for six weeks. Corporate travelers stay a month while working in Silicon Beach. Venice Beach Airbnb management through Open Air Homes is built to capture all of this demand.
Why Owners Choose Open Air Homes in Venice
Local Expertise, Dual-Mode Strategy, and 24/7 Support
We run a dual-mode strategy for Venice homeowners: true STR permits for homes inside the Coastal Commission zone and 30-night CAR-compliant leases everywhere else. Guest support calls route to our Venice office until 10pm. We are on Lincoln and Washington in minutes if needed.
Rates adjust daily through PriceLabs for festivals, surf contests, and summer demand spikes. Every cleaning is eco-certified through Turno with child-safe products, photo audits, and linen swaps scheduled around guest plans. Your home is listed on Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, Google Travel, and our direct booking site.
Design and Hospitality That Stand Out
Coastal-Modern Touches Guests Remember
Our Venice-based staging team installs driftwood accents, indoor-outdoor rugs, premium Wi-Fi mesh, and specialty coffee kits. Aeropress, French press, or Nespresso depending on the space. These details photograph well, earn five-star reviews, and justify higher nightly rates.
Wellness-minded guests appreciate yoga mats, infrared saunas, and compact air purifiers. Families love Pack ‘n Plays and blackout shades. Every home we onboard gets a design assessment to identify opportunities that improve the guest experience and your ranking on Airbnb.
