The house has every amenity. We cooked and bbquedWhen we did not each out. Communication with the host was always immediate.-In Many VRBO stays I’ve had there was a long list of check out instructions - not here. That increased the relaxation of our time. I love this area of Santa Monica - it holds wonderful family memories and stories. The proximity to the beach is amazing -I took a long walk each morning -And sometimes rented a bike to pedal down through Venice beach, buying artwork and bracelets. The only consideration is the parking. If you arePlanning to use your car during the height of the weekends you may not be ableTo enter the reserved lot and you may have to find street parking. ##### Debbie N.

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. ##### Kenny B.

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! ##### Peter V.

Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 5 Jan 2018 #### 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. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### sally c. 1 May 2025 ##### sally c.
