Perfect, Private and cozy

We were in Santa Monica for both business and vacation. This was the perfect spot to lay out our work and still have plenty of space to "live". Many air conditioners in the place make it nice and cool. And both front and back patios are completely private and we loved it. While the driveway is really tight (really small car only) the street had plenty of parking and we never had issues finding a spot. Claudia, the host, had the right amount of communication and even gave restaurant and grocery store suggestions in the area. I highly recommend this wonderful house!

Easy access to all you need in Mar Vista/Venice

This home was comfortable inside and out. Nice outdoor spaces in the front and back. The kitchen had everything and the host is very responsive to any questions that came up.I would definitely stay again.

Perfect Week-long stay for Young Family

We had the best week staying at this house. It was perfect for our small family (we have an 11 month old). Check-in process was smooth, Claudia was really communicative and helpful as we navigated travelling for the first time with our kid. Having the pack and play there was also so useful! The kitchen isn't huge but is very functional, and we ended up cooking and grilling a fair amount. The location is ideal for exploring the West Side, and we regularly walked down to shops and food on Lincoln Blvd, and drove down to Venice proper, Santa Monica, and other local spots. Parking on the street was also so easy! The temperature control took some getting used to. The house would get warm during the day -- we visited in April -- and require aircon [which was available and effective] but would cool down significantly at night, which at times required turning the heat on. This wouldn't have been any issue for us adults, but we were more aware of it with our 11 month old getting cold at night. Otherwise, zero notes! Thank you for the best week!

Perfect for our needs

Came into town for 10 days and decided to do VRBO rather than a hotel - excellent choice. Cute neighborhood, great proximity to stores, restaurants, etc. Well stocked with cleaning and cooking things. Enjoyed our stay.
