The home was exactly as pictured. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen had everything you needed if you wanted to cook, and the outside deck was a perfect spot to relax. The location was a quick walk to Main Street in Santa Monica and a couple more blocks to the beach. The hosts were very friendly and promptly responded to our questions. We will definitely be back! Thanks for everything!

Wonderful host, perfect amenities, quick walk to the beach, groceries, shopping and cafes. It was lovely!

We really loved the relaxed atmosphere of the cottage and neighborhood. Great location and friendly hosts.

My husband and I were visiting family. The cottage was perfect!! So spacious and conveniently located to everything. Walking distance to Main St which was awesome. We loved the porch area. Will definitely be back!!

We loved the place

Enjoyed the short walk to the beach, restaurants and shopping. The beach cruisers and boogie boards were wonderful additions to the comfortable and well equipped home. We hope to return again!

Great location, comfortable beds, heat and AC! Would book again in a heartbeat! Amazing place.

Would happily stay again. Clean and comfortable inside and outside. Loved the private outdoor area, well appointed kitchen, comfortable bed, and location to restaurants and the beach

This was such a fantastic property! It was ideal for a few days of staycation and perfectly situated near the ocean, downtown Santa Monica and the freeway. Could not have been more impressed with the cleanliness and style of everything inside and out.

This place has everything you need for your trip and location is near points of interest and shopping. What makes this place great is it’s warmth. The owners are as friendly and kind as it gets.

We enjoyed the well-equipped house, tasty interior, spacy living room and kitchen, bikes available. Nice contact and communication to host family who lives nearby. Felt like home! Thanks for offering such a great place ;)

Little gem walking distance to the beach. Great patio space with privacy. The entry door is a bit different in the way it operates, but the property owner leaves great instructions on how to use. Appreciated the restaurant recommendations left by property owner as well.

Perfect location, everything was super

We had a great time and plan on returning to stay for a longer period of time. This house was perfect for a family of four and was an easy walk to the beach. We LOVED it!

We stayed at the cottage from July 9-July 16 2023. We were pleasantly surprised that the cottage was just as it had looked in the photos :) Very clean and close to the beach and many amenities. We did have a couple of issues arise, that being said, the host, Teresa, was very quick to act and have the issues resolved with no interruption with our plans :) We were pleased with the results. The bathroom mirror was a little high for us Canadian shorties...lol...but we managed with the other mirrors in the cottage. We were able to walk to many areas and the cost of taking a Lyft to anywhere that was too far to walk, or for a guided tour, was quite economical. Again, location is phenomenal ! We would highly recommend this well kept and located cottage to anyone wanting to explore/visit Santa Monica Pier/Beach, Venice Beach and surrounding areas :) Paulette, Nicole, Naomi and Shayna...

The pictures don’t do it justice. It was so cute and comfortable! The best part was the continuous hot water tank… with two teens it was a godsend! Spent more time on the patio then we did the beach because it was so comfortable. Our flight arrived before check-in time so the property owner allowed us to drop our bags until check-in. Great communication and coordination. We absolutely loved our stay!

This property was one of the best I have stayed in. Hosts were friendly and accomodating. The location was perfect - close to the beach, restaurants, coffee, etc. The home was clean and extremely comfortable. The outdoor space was inviting and relaxing. We absolutely loved our stay here! Should we return to the area, we would book again and again!

We so enjoyed our stay at Teresa's place! It was even better than the pictures. Loved the comfy and private deck, the wonderful bedrooms and sofa bed (so we each had our own space!), the fantastic kitchen we could have cooked in! And the proximity to Ocean Park and the beach, of course. Amazing and lovely and so clean! Definitely would stay there again and recommend to others. Having a parking spot was super, too.

Wonderful stay- the house is perfect , very well equipped with everything you could need and more! The shower is fantastic. Loved the decking area - really nice space to sit out. Location is great good walking distance to cafes restaurants and the beach. Great communications with host. Definitely recommend this place.

The property is as advertised. Very clean and in a great location. A short walk to the beach, close enough I went for a run every morning. Only a 15 minute walk to Santa Monica pier and shops. Would definitely stay again if I get the chance.

The pictures don’t do it justice, place was very cute and close to the beach! Loved the privacy of the yard. The beds were cozy and the shower was nice. Really enjoyed having a good kitchen to cook in. Would definitely stay again when traveling back to the area!

Had a great stay, loved the house and location. Would stay there again

This little cottage is a gem. It's comfortable, beautifully decorated and in the perfect location. We had a great time with our family here and enjoyed every minute. It had everything we needed - and I wish we could have stayed longer!

Lovely and charming house ideally located walking distance from the beaches and very close to downtown Santa Monica (10 min by bike). We definitely enjoyed our stay. Special thanks to Teresa for the easy communication before our stay. Very quick to answer and prompt to give lot of information and good tips.

We had a fantastic stay with our family of 4 (2 kids under 3 years old) - wish we could have stayed longer. It was a short walk to the beach/pier. The backyard feels very private, and the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. Definitely recommend! We can’t wait to come back.

Such a nice place to stay. Had everything we needed and in a great location. Loved the patio.

What a perfect Santa Monica stay! Beautifully furnished, close to the beach, great outdoor eating area, nice hosts--who could ask for more?

Our family had an exceptional stay in Santa Monica and found the hosts to be exceptionally hospitable. The location is unrivaled by anything else I'd seen online and the house itself was clean and charming. We're grateful to have stayed there!

Wonderful house. Very clean and within walking distance to 3rd street, Main street and the pier. Would highly recommend.

This property was perfect for our trip! Quick three minute drive to downtown Santa Monica and only a few blocks from the beach. We loved the deck and privacy hedge surrounding the property. Teresa was amazing and answered any questions we had quickly. We can’t wait to plan our next visit.
