Awesome house

Really enjoyed staying here. Its perfect, so close to beach, the pier and activities. Once you park no need to drive. Restaurants walking distance, Carls Cafe 1 minute walk with great breakfast. Rented 2 bikes and rode to Veince and back. Recommended renting an old fashion pedlal bike, cheaper and fun I will come back forsure

Magical stay & immaculately maintained home

Where do I begin?! This home is pristine- everything about it. Love how private and safe it feels, yet in the heart of Santa Monica! Kitchen cabinets stocked with cooking oils, spices, nespresso coffee pods, beach towels, soap & shower toiletries, extra toilet paper & paper towels. Once you arrive there’s nothing to worry about, the owner has thought of everything! Lots of space for my three teenagers to spread out and each have their own room! I hope we can come back in the future!!!

Family beach getaway!

We had a wonderful time staying in this awesome house in Santa Monica with our family ! This is our 3rd or 4th time and our adult kids look forward to it! The home is gorgeous and so close to the beach ! Bedrooms were perfect for a large group! Kitchen / family room worked well and then having a few quiet living areas to chill was super! Thanks for another wonderful time!

Beautiful home

Our family of four adults enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home. Lots of space for the adult kids to have their own time. Perfect with the four bedrooms and three bathrooms to make everyone’s stay a welcome one. House is well equipped and Tom is quick and efficient to work with. Would stay here again.

Wonderful Home

This property was great. It was perfect for a women’s weekend. The location is steps to the beach and close to many bars and restaurants. We cooked dinner and ate at the beautiful dining area outside. The firepit was a nice place to sit and have a glass of wine. Really a lovely home.

Great Spot in a Great Location

Love this place, incredible location. Really hard to get any better, would go back tomorrow. Love the little side street, parking is easy and right there, 150 yds to beach, right by pier, walking to great restaurants. General layout of the home is a little weird in that it has a full bath not attached to a bedroom downstairs but other than that you can't complain. I would go back in a second. So 1 master bedroom downstairs 3 Bedrooms upstiars with one full bath 1 Full bath downstairs separate from Master.

Perfect Girls Getaway

I can’t say enough wonderful things about this property. The location is amazing, the pictures of the house don’t do justice to how beautiful it is. The beds were so comfortable. Literally a perfect rental property. And the owners were so helpful, communicative and accommodating. Can’t wait to go back!

Family Friendly Gem

We loved this house! Super clean and comfortable, lots of space, beautiful views and amazing location right across the street from the beach. Even though it’s right near all the action it is tucked away and feels very private and quiet. I really appreciated that it came equipped with all the stuff we needed to take our four year old to the beach: chairs, beach toys, and even a mesh tote to haul it all downstairs. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Amazing!

Four day stay over spring break this year. We travel to California a few times a year (daughter at UC) and we usually stay at hotels but decided to try VRBO for this trip. The House was fantastic and better than in pictures. Great location near downtown SM and 1 block off of the beach. House if well appointed and roomy. We have five of us and it worked very well. Only problem is that we did not want to leave!

stunning, meticulous home

This is the kind of experience you hope upon hope you will; normally it's not this perfect. Whether you are working or there for leisure, this is one of the most beautiful, lovingly cared for homes I have stayed in. You are 30 seconds to a stroll on the beach and many restaurants. but the real joy simply feeling zen inside this beautiful home. i can not wait to return.

Above and Beyond

This is an amazing property located a block off the beach in Santa Monica. We loved the gas fire pit area in the back as it allowed us to have a few friends over for socially distanced adult beverages in the evening. When I mistakenly left my international adapter and i-phone cord at the property, Christina was so kind to mail it to me and then refused payment for the cost. How nice of her!

Nice house. Poorly equipped

House was nicely remodeled and clean. The kitchen was poorly equipped and things in kitchen were tired, damaged or from a second hand store...missed opportunity. The lane way dirty and well traveled and neighborhood and local beach overrun with homeless. We were unaware when we booked.

Great House!

This house is just as good as the pictures make it out to be. It poured down rain for our entire stay (how does that even happen in southern California??) so I was extra thankful that the house was so perfect for hanging out. The property is walking distance to the pier, Pacific Park, 3rd Street Promenade, all kinds of restaurants, beach.. you can even walk or bike down to Venice. The owner is very responsive and helpful. The only drawback is the parking situation as there isn't any at the property but since everything is walking distance we really only had to deal with that when unpacking our luggage and packing back up. I recommend this 5 star property!

Amazing location, wonderful beach house and great hostess

Location and layout made this a great trip. The property is a stone's throw from the beach - easy access to Santa Monica peer, the beach path that runs along the coast, and a short 10 min walk to the Santa Monica 3rd Street area. Venice beach is also an easy 20-30 min walk south along the beach path. The area is totally safe and comfortable. The house layout was great - master bed downstairs and 3 more bedrooms upstairs. It has the feel of both a comfy beach house and a clean modern home. There is ample living space, making the house perfect to simply relax and hang out or to launch to the beach or other LA activities. There is an amazing breakfast spot very close by (Corra's Coffee Shop) that is perfect to take out and bring back to the house. The hostess was great - easy communication and simple to work with leading up to and during our stay. Be advised the master bed is a memory foam on the firm side (for us), so if you prefer relatively softer beds or box springs plan to sleep upstairs. No doubt in our minds this would be the first place we'd stay if we came back to the Santa Monica area.

This property is the best location I've seen by far in Santa Monica and we are literally steps to the sand! The house is the perfect beach house getaway for families and couples.

What makes this property unique

Heart of Santa Monica yet you feel like you are in the woods with large pine trees canopying the house and views onto the ocean.
