Keywords: House
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 6 blocks from the beach. It 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’ll 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 2 bedroom, 1 bath house is a charming 1920’s California Bungalow with a sun porch that looks out on a quiet brick patio and peaceful gardens. 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. It is a great place to relax, watch TV or read a book.
Amenities include cable, DVR and a DVD player. Each bedroom has a queen size bed and plenty of closet space. The kitchen is fully stocked with all dinnerware, pots and pans and includes a microwave in addition to the antique stove. And for eating inside there is a cozy dining room just off the kitchen.
There are two off-street parking spaces.
This house is on the same property as VRBO# 78668. 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.

My wife and I have stayed at one of the two cottages for several weeks, for 3 years in a row. The place is just wonderful! It is safe, quiet and charming, a perfect location for enjoying Santa Monica or Los Angeles, and very clean. Deirdre is outstanding and very responsive. This is a terrific place!

My husband and I rented this home for 2 weeks this summer and loved every minute of it. This house is cozy and cute with everything we needed for our stay. The decor is lovely and calming. This house is tucked away so it is quiet, but is also close enough to walk to the beach and downtown Santa Monica. Plenty of parking...which you will find out is hard to come by in this town. We have nothing but the best to say about this place and can't wait to come again.

This accommodation was absolutely wonderful! I have stayed there now on two separate occasions and loved both times. The house is beautifully kept and tucked away in a gorgeous suburb in a convenient location in walking distance from the main Santa Monica area. The house is managed wonderful and the property manager is extremely helpful and easy to contact. This property is HIGHLY recommended.

A charming cottage in a nice quiet neighborhood. Very comfortable. It was nice having Deirdre nearby to help with advice for out-of-towners.

A lovely house and garden in a great part of town. There's lots to walk to, including restaurants, parks and the beach, and it's easy to get to places like UCLA or the Getty. The house is airy, open, and well furnished - we were able to cook and have people over - and the garden was great to hang out in.

A treasure in lovely Santa Monica. The comments on this site are spot on. The cottage was a delight. We felt right at home as soon as we walked thru the door. We had a fantastic Thanksgiving holiday. Thank you Deidre.
