I stayed at this little cottage for my birthday weekend. And it was perfect! The design was so cute and made you feel very inviting. The garden was magical for whenever you wanted to step outside and enjoy the warm cali weather. There's a grocery store right across the street for any necessities. The balcony up top was the perfect breakfast spot in the morning too. Tom was very responsive to replying ensuring you were comfortable and up to date on any questions. Its an easy 10 minute drive to the beach or 30 minute walk depending on your need to arrive. We scootered everywhere, enjoying the weather and views as we adventured through Santa Monica. Highly recommend booking your stay here. You won't regret it!
