This was the greatest - our hosts were so accommodating and welcoming, and the house is INCREDIBLE. All we hoped for and much more.

Stayed in a lot of VRBO. This home was the best. Location, decor, everything you need & enjoy in a home.

It was as if my home was transported to Ocean drive. The best!

Beautiful beach house! Great location!

We’ve traveled to many air bnb properties age vrbo. None met our expectations like this property. It was very accurately photographed and very clean . Julie the host was So helpful. She delivered breakfast every morning and answered many questions about the area. Can’t say enough good things ! Great location . Would stay again.

No detail overlooked at The Cottage. The structure is completely renovated so that it is like new. The kitchen is well-stocked and the owner provided coffee, various fresh milks and juices, cheese, a bottle of good wine, and more. There were fresh cut flowers everywhere, and fresh bakery items and fruit were delivered every morning. Management is on-site.

Literally the best Hone away ever.

We had a wonderful stay. The cottage was beautiful with all the amenities necessary for a wonderful stay. Location was great as it was walking/biking distance to many different locations to explore with a beach view no less! Very fun trip for all.

Staying in this darling cottage was by far my favorite VRBO experience! It’s perfectly put together with comfortable beds, furniture, vintage touches everywhere and a lovely kitchen. I felt so honored and trusted with the beautiful China dishes and vintage glassware. The owners are brilliant to fill this home with such beauty. It only made me want to give it the care I would give my own special things. And besides that, Julie took such good care of us during our stay. She was so kind, courteous, and always available. She brought wonderful breakfast every morning and set up a dinner with Chef Patrice one evening. This cottage is now apart of fond memories. Thank you for surpassing my expectations!

This rental exceeded are expectations by leaps and bounds! The concierge was so friendly, professional and helpful. The owners were thoughtful and easy to work with. The location could not be any better. While you are in the middle of anything you would want to see or do you are also in what i thought was the most peaceful location there was. The view is spectacular, wether you are inside or outside of the cottage. The decor was cheerful, clean and meticulously decorated. We enjoyed every aspect of this place. The jacuzi and sauna were a big hit for our family after spending time on the beach. The kids loved the path in front of the cottage that led through Venice and Santa Monica beach where they would ride a "Lime" or "Bird" that was rented online. My daughter competed in a National volleyball tournament right down the beach! Our family enjoyed playing beach volleyball together, and lots of beach down time in the best spot on the beach which was directly in front of the cottage. I can honestly say that it was not long at all before my husband and I were totally relaxed in this cottage. The feel of this home gives the most relaxing, peaceful and joyful vibe that you could imagine. The linens feel amazing! The air conditioning is fantastic also. The decorating is out of this world! No way will you be disapointed in this sweet cottage. Enjoy! Brooke

Our concierge Julie took care of everything! The ocean view out the front door was amazing. The kids loved being able to walk to the Santa Monica Pier and the 3rd Street Promenade shopping area was just a short walk from there. My wife loved it! We will definitely be back! Thanks!

Loved everything about this place. View was spectacular. House was in impeccable condition. Location superb. Service extraordinary. You're in a real treat if you have the opportunity to stay in this historic beauty!

This property is wonderfully maintained and in a great location!

Wonderful stay at this beautifully appointed and situated cottage. We had a group of 7 and loved the layout and feel of this property. Everyone loved their stay. We are passing through Santa Monica on our way to skiing in CO. Just across the street from the walkway on the beach - we walked to Venice; the boys hired segways and went both ways; we walked to restaurants in Santa Monica Blvd; met friends and explored; gathered in the comfortable lounge and watched the Australian Open; played cards. A very special place.

The Cottage is impeccably maintained by the Heidt family who take well deserved pride in this gorgeous property. It is a well proportioned four bedroom with all the amenities. Walking distance to the pier and all the local attractions. We were looked after by Maddy who was attentive but unobtrusive. We will return!

We stayed for about a week at the Cottage and really enjoyed our stay. The owners and property managers were very accommodating and made sure our family needs were well met. The location put us steps away from the beach, pier, restaurants, etc...The house itself is very well furnished and decorated and has all the amenities to make us comfortable. We would definitely stay here again!

The Cottage is an amazingly decorated house located in the heart of vibrant Santa Monica. With a nautical, beach theme found throughout this spacious home, the ocean view validates the experience of being seaside! If you're interested in experiencing a tranquil beach getaway, but would like the option of enjoying an eclectic town like Venice, or stroll urban, metropolis streets equal to Third Street Promenade, then The Cottage is the perfect place to stay. Bottom-line, The Cottage is an incredibly located piece of real estate that exudes beach living, while offering unlimited amenities in one of the most diverse cities in our nation.

Our family spent the most delightful week in this fabulous, beautifully decorated and sweet, not so little cottage. The location is perfect, steps from the beach where are all the activities you could want, yet tucked away in a quiet setting. Every detail was thought out and provided for our convenience and comfort starting with the welcome wine and cheese to coffee service, restaurant recommendations, off street parking, cozy bathrobes and more. We loved this cottage and will definitely be back for another visit! Becky

I can't imagine a more tranquil and idyllic place to vacation in Los Angeles than at this most wonderful beachfront haven in Santa Monica. This historical property which has been tastefully and impeccably restored - is full of charm. It's truly a one-of-a-kind experience where my wife and I enjoyed sitting on the veranda and watching the sailboats in the ocean pass by as seagulls soared above. We soaked up the sunshine every day and listened to the light rustling of the palm trees which lined Ocean avenue - mere footsteps from the soft sandy beaches where we went swimming every morning. I've never felt more rested and relaxed before in my life! In the few days we spent at the cottage, I felt as if I had taken a much needed month long vacation! I'd come back here in a heartbeat. The Cottage Bed & Breakfast is the first and only B&B in Santa Monica, but it is also the perfect alternative to the run of the mill hotel chains nearby which only offer generic hospitality for the masses. I felt like a local while staying at the Cottage and the kitchen was fantastic too - we cooked every night while watching the sunset and enjoying a nice bottle of wine. The accommodations of this place are just what the doctor ordered! Kudos to the family that restored this special slice of heaven! -Larry

Once a year my family rents a home in California for a week. Typically we've rented in Manhattan Beach or Malibu, but decided to try Santa Monica after stumbling across this property and am very pleased we did. The location is perfect. The front door opens onto the beach and you're only a short walk to the heart of Main Street. While central to almost everything, you're also not too close to the tourist-ridden 3rd street, allowing you to enjoy serenity of the incoming waves. The amenities are second to none. The house has been recently renovated and no expense was spared. The owners were extremely friendly and committed to ensuring are vacation was everything we wanted it to be.

not only is it right on the beach, but this beautifully renovated cottage is spacious and had everything that i wanted/needed and more!
