This is a cute, clean and very comfortable cottage space in a beautiful neighborhood, walking distance to the ocean. Parking is free and abundant on the street in front of the property. Shops and restaurants on nearby Montana Ave are fun to explore. We had easy and scenic drives to both Getty museums. The space was perfect for us two retired ladies on a girls trip, we spent hours on the private patio laughing and talking. Our charming host, Natalie, was fabulous, and very responsive to questions and requests. I highly recommend this lovely place, and would definitely book it again. The entry from the street is through a locked gate, we felt completely safe during our stay.

Natalie was a great communicator and a wonderful host! She welcomed us on arrival and ensured we knew everything about parking, getting inside and where to find basically everything you could possibly need during a stay. The guest house is lovely, comfortable and well equipped - even a raincoat and umbrella. The location is great for exploring Santa Monica, up the coast, the Getty, UCLA.... Lots of nearby dining options too. I definitely recommend staying here!

The location was fantastic. Beautiful morning walks to Ocean Avenue and an easy stroll to Montana Avenue for shops and restaurants. Loved sitting on the deck in the evening in what felt like our secret garden. Natalie is an excellent host and the "cottage by the sea" could not have been cleaner or more comfortable!

Gracious hostess, lovely private setting, beautifully decorated interior. It was a little small for a family of three but the outdoor deck, where we spent a lot of time, made a big difference.
Looking out at the nicely furnished deck.

Great weekend trip

We came to visit my dad who lives in LA but decided to stay in Santa Monica to be near the beach. Natalie (the owner) is wonderful and the location can’t be beat. We travelled with our adult son and although it’s a pretty small place, it was a perfect little get away location that had enough room for all of us. We will be back!
