We had the great pleasure to meet Olivier at his modern, clean and beautiful home. The room was even larger than we expected and had its own balcony and wonderful bathroom. The natural stone floors where perfect since we spend ample time at the beach tracking sand back... . We brought our own bikes, but there is a bike store across the street . The ride is 10 minutes to the beach with bikes. Or you can walk to the beach along the pretty streets of Santa Monica in 15 minutes. We loved the location and our host was delightful,nature loving and very attentive to any questions and needs we had. We would gladly stay with Olivier again in his beautiful home. The space is very private as well and you can chill in style!:)
