This is my second stay at Lynne’s place and I came back because it is just a really great find in a big city. The cottage itself is a cozy oasis that is designed w great style . It also feels entirely private, yet benefits from the beautiful garden of the main house and surrounding well-kept Santa Monica residential neighborhood. Great shops and restaurants as well as the beach are just a short walk away. And Lynne is a great thoughtful host with whom it is easy to communicate. I was partly working remotely during my stay and having a kind host make the logistics from booking to departure seamless and pleasant was invaluable. I hope she has room for me next time I am in town. You can also scroll back to November 2020 for my review from my prior stay.
