A gem in Santa Monica

This is a beautiful home in a great location, tastefully decorated with amazing city views, and well apportioned. Not only is it close to the beach but is also within walking distance to the delicious eateries and nice shops on Rose Ave. Could not have been more pleased with our stay or delighted with the accommodations. Mention must also be made as to the exceptional quality of the host, her reliability, thoroughness of communication, and the care she obviously bestows on this property. We look forward to staying in this lovely home again many times in the future.

Great stay!

We have stayed at over 20 different properties through both VRBO and ARBNB and this location is the best appointed property we have been to. The unit is beautifully decorated with a lot of style. It was refreshing to have high end appliances and accessories in the Kitchen. I would highly recommend a stay here as you visit the LA area.

Santa Monica Chilling

Just had a great experience in Santa Monica. This place is great for a single, couple or couple with one or two kids that want to sleep on a futon. Its airy, sunny and has a ton of very personal touches (including a bidet toilet!). Close to great restaurants and the beach. Its perched on a hill so the climb back will give you a little exercise, but nothing strenuous, I was really impressed with Renee, the Host. She reached out several times, always was in a great mood and was extremely accommodating. Sometimes the Host / manager makes the surroundings that much bettr and this was one of those times. We will be back!!
