Location: Santa Monica, Los Angeles County & Catalina Island, California, USA (The House is Only 6 Blocks from the Beach.)

Accommodations:  House, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 1.5 Baths (Sleeps 4-6)

Are you coming for vacation? Or are you going to be here for work? Either way this house is ideal. It is located in a prime Santa Monica location just six blocks from the beach.

The home is a short distance to both the Third Street Promenade and Main Street where you will find amazing shops, restaurants, and weekend farmer’s markets not to mention some over-the-top people watching. For more people watching and sidewalk entertainment Venice Boardwalk and the Santa Monica Pier are also close by. Being close to the beach, you will be able to enjoy great surfing, biking, sailing, and incredible sunsets. If you are here for work, there is a major freeway a short distance away. From there you will be able to get to downtown Los Angeles in just 25 minutes (traffic permitting of course).

The house is a charming, 1920’s, California Bungalow with a sun porch that looks out on the fenced in front yard. But if you do not want to merely look out on the yard, you can enjoy dinner at the outside dining table. Or you can get some work done with the help of the wireless Internet access. When you enter the house you will walk through the sun porch into a relaxing living room. Not only is it a great place to relax, watch TV or read a book but it also has a convertible sofa for additional sleeping. Each bedroom has a queen-size bed and plenty of closet space. The kitchen has all of the necessities including a microwave, dishwasher, and plenty of dinnerware. And for eating inside there is a cozy dining room just off the kitchen. And for added convenience a brand new washer and dryer were just installed.

There are two off street parking spaces.

This house is on the same property as VRBO# 88630. The houses are totally separate so you can be as connected or independent as you like. It's a perfect arrangment if you have a big group coming for a wedding or graduation. The two houses combined can accomodate 8-10 people.

**Please be aware that I DO NOT use the VRBO calendar, so please contact me directly for availability.

  • We enjoyed our stay at the Grant home. It was a very family-friendly environment with a nice location. We especially enjoyed grilling and dining in the front yard. It was nice and private. We would certainly stay, again.

  • My family and I stayed over the holidays in this lovely cottage. We found it in perfect condition with everything we needed for our stay. The location is great, close to the beach but quietly off the beaten path. Highly recommended!

  • Our family of five stayed at the Grant House for one week this past August. We had a wonderful time and couldn't have been happier with our decision to rent the house. The accomodations were just as described and even exceeded our expectations. Deirdre made our stay hassle-free. Highly recommended!

  • We stayed for 10 days and the house was great. Our son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter came to visit (they live in LA) and two of our other children stayed for 5 of the 10 days. We barbequed in the front yard several times and visited many of the great restaurants in the Santa Monica/LA area. The house was plenty big for what we needed with a great kitchen. Except for a leaky bathtub and a running toilet, we would definitely stay again.

  • We loved the Grant Street home. We stayed 10 days and have a daughter who lives in Santa Monica and Son in West Hollywood. They were over several times because the house felt like a home rather than the appartments they live in. The sun comes in the front porch in the afternoon and we loved to sit and read, listen to the radio, or fall asleep. The beds were superior. The kitchen is large. Lots of room since we had a birthday party one night with several people there to celebrate and it wasn't crowded. A wonderful, relaxing place to stay. I wouldn't consider a hotel room after staying at the Grant Street house.

  • Our recent week at Grant House was wonderful and exceeded our expectations. Dierdre, the owner, is very warm and friendly and did everything to make our stay memorable. The property itself is very cozy and charmingly decorated. The surrounding gardens are lovely! We loved our long daily walks along the beach (just a short distance away), ending with a morning coffee on the Promenade. We would definitely stay here again and enthusiastically recommend this property to anyone planning a trip to the area. Having two separate bungalows on the property, also makes it ideal for extended families.

  • The little blue house was so much better than staying in a hotel! It had everything that was needed and felt like home away from home! I will definitely go back.

  • My parents came into town for a brief visit. I put them up at the Blue House. They were able to relax as if they were at home. They enjoyed their stay. I would recommend the property :)
