Sean, the host was communicative. I loved that there were subtle niceties like shampoo and conditioner and new loofah‘s in the master bathroom. Every sink has liquid hand soap. Surprisingly so many vacation rentals don’t think of practical elements such as these. The kitchen had as many high-end appliances as you could ever need. There was a complete spice rack and the cupboards were appropriately stocked with essential cooking items. And of course being on the water with waves crashing literally at your feet, what else could you want? Definitely recommend.

Amazing views Property had all needed supplies and essentials needed for the entire stay Plenty of towels Close to highway and convenient store Communication for check in and out was smooth House needs some updates and locks on the bedroom and bathroom doors but overall comfortable Owner was very kind and responses quick. Property is ocean view not beach view so the waves literally touch the house

Great quite peaceful neighborhood. Food & markets close by, no need to go far. The house had everything you need in every room but the best part of the house was the ocean views. Breathe taking! Our family of 8pp enjoyed watching movies in the leaving room very cozy and played uno in the dining table near by with the sound of the ocean. Love how the doors to the balcony open widely. Most enjoyable stay.

Restful 5 night "staycation". AMAZING location - right on the beach, central to both Santa Monica and Malibu (country mart, etc). Walkable beach (when tide is low). 3 decks with panoramic view of ocean. Home is very comfortable, and perfect for 4-6 people. Ocean air has worn the home a bit (as it does with ALL beachfront property), but it was clean, well appointed and had everything we needed - including beach "toys" for kids and adults! We would definitely rent again.

The house was awesome and Sean & Sandra were perfect hosts. It was even better than the pictures posted on VRBO. Had a great time and will definitely rent it again.

Sandra and Sean were fabulous. They allowed us to check in a bit early which was super helpful. Sandra was available at all times in case we needed anything. The location was awesome! Super close to the Santa Monica Pier - can see it from the balcony! Amazing views! We saw dolphins right out front both days we were there! The 3 balconies were definitely highly utilized by us! The house it self is a little dated - some windows weren’t functional, kitchen is a little older but fully functional. For us, when traveling, it’s all about location and views and this rental was definitely right on the money! Thank you Sandra and Sean!!

If you're looking for a nice relaxing property on the beach where you can listen to the waves crash and enjoy beautiful sunsets - this is the place for you. Likewise, if you're looking for an ultra modern reno - this might not work for you. The property has ample space for larger groups and you can take a trip back to the 80's in terms of décor. The owners, Sean and Sandra, we're helpful without being intrusive. We had a lovely stay and hope to come back. Thanks Sandra!

Location is perfect. Exactly what I was looking for. Gorgeous views from every ocean facing room. Private beach access. Bath tubs with jets. Sauna. Laundry machine and dryer. Well decorated and stocked with household items. Thank you so much!

The house was a Family ‘s home and confortable And you find everything you need And the house had an amazing beach and mountains view I like this house and my kids love it too We like to come back in summer

The view was amazing the beds were comfy and it’s a great house for a family. The house was very clean when we first came. The owner Mrs. Sandra was very lovely and helpful. We would love to come back to the house.

I would not recommend staying here. We’ve stayed in dozens of rental properties over the years all over the world and this was our worst experience by far. Pictures of the property make it look far better than what it is. The inside is dingy, worn out and tired. Lots of things broken...the kitchen faucet, dry sauna, lots of the doors and windows (including the main patio door that won’t shut and lock), the TV (house had a full page “troubleshoot” guide for the tv, so owner is aware of issues...waited 2 hours for someone to come out to fix it). The house wasn’t equipped for renters...not enough towels, no trash bags, no dish soap, no body soap, no hair dryer, etc. The upstairs patio was neat, but getting to it was a chore and not safe for old and young guests...you had to pull down the stairs like an attic and enter through a crawl space. Once up on the patio, all of the furniture was broken or too worn out to use. Probably the worst issue was the street noise. I’m a heavy sleeper and still couldn’t fall asleep with the loud noises of the street. The only bedroom where you couldn’t hear it was the master. The windows were old and didn’t seam to seal so that could have been the reason the noise was so awful. The ocean view was amazing, but there’s no beach front by this house. There are many amazing houses in the area. Trust me when I tell you to spend a tad bit more for something livable otherwise you will regret your decision like we did. Never ever ever again!

Our family had an awesome time staying at this house. The beach right outside the home is very beautiful and pristine. It seemed we had the whole beach to ourselves and rarely saw another person. My son and I went to the bait shop very close by and were able to fish from the shore and caught a few different kinds of fish. The three patios were great. The top floor offered especially incredible views. We were able to see several sea lions and dolphins swim by. And since the home faces south you can watch the sunrise and sunset. The home itself was very clean and slept 8 of us comfortably. It included everything we would want. During our stay we went to both the Malibu and Santa Monica piers, which are close by. We would definitely stay here again.

The place looked like the pictures. It was wonderful falling asleep to the sound of the ocean right outside the door. Location - Short drive to great restaurants. It was a short drive to things we wanted to see and do. Neighorhood was quiet. Grocery stores were nearby. Perfect for our first date. Clean - Everything was clean. Beds - The beds were comfortable. Bathrooms - The bathrooms were stocked with bath products of various kinds. Lots of towels. Kitchen had everything that was necessary. Jose managed the property and was great. I only spoke to him on the day we checked in and the day we left. I can't even imagine finding a better place than this one.

Be aware that there is no beach in front of this property except for a brief period of low tide. Otherwise, the water is right up to the house. Not a beach for taking a walk or spending the day.
