Teresa’s little cute house is a real gem and we were so happy to choose it for our Santa Monica vacation. The only complaint is that we couldn’t stay longer. It’s a cosy, well appointed house that feels like home away from home rather than a vacation rental. Our daughter loved the kids room, the books and the games, and we all enjoyed the patio. It’s walking distance from the beach (stop at Dogtown coffee for a morning cup!), and close enough to downtown/3rd street promenade, but it’s also a residential neighborhood, so it’s quiet and has some local feel. We didn’t use bikes, but they’re available, as well at the beach stuff. Teresa was very accommodating and responsive. Would love to stay again!
