This cute renovated 1920’s beach cottage in Santa Monica suited our family of four like a charm. It’s very private, feels very secure and the neighborhood is even quieter than our home in the mountains of Colorado.
Every day of our stay during one week in February, half our family walked from this little house to Santa Monica Pier and the beach; one could surely walk to the cool shops and restaurants of Santa Monica as well. The other half of our family drove from here to tour L.A. colleges via Interstate-10 which has an on-ramp easily accessible from the house; a priority street parking pass comes with the cottage and so parking was no problem.
The house was clean and stylish and has comfortable, quality linens. We slept 4 in a house that could well fit 6 - we each enjoyed good space. We used the wi-fi, TV and DVD player, and cooked in the kitchen every day; everything was operational and in fine shape, including the furnace which we needed during the coldest week of their So. California winter! There’s a bedroom with a queen bed and attached toilet/shower, and a Jack-and-Jill bathroom (toilet/footed tub) shared by the second bedroom (queen bed) and the third bedroom (single bed and single trundle bed). The house has a nice, enclosed patio that would be terrific outdoor dining in summer; the ping-pong table and BBQ was not available in February. There is a washer/dryer with supplies which is an asset to any comfortable stay.
Charles is a very nice host, he respected our privacy and his instructions/directions were spot on and timely. Charles quickly dealt with one minor problem we had upon check-in and, upon check-out, promptly and beautifully packaged up and mailed an important item we left behind. Check-in and check-out was smooth and easy (something I always stress about when using VRBO). Thank you Charles!
We would stay here again and so we highly recommend this nice cottage in Santa Monica.
