Wow! Darlene's home and hosting are superlative. We had an outstanding stay in Santa Monica. We were welcomed by homemade banana and blueberry bread and a very well-stocked kitchen and fridge. I've had the pleasure of staying in nearly a dozen AirBnB properties, and Darlene's home was the richest in amenities to facilitate our stay. Beyond the abundance of the kitchen, she's thought of other helpful items like a bag to take to the beach, and razors in the the bathroom - she's thought of everything.
The home was beautifully decorated and the bed was very comfortable with lovely linens.
Darlene graciously provided suggestions for what to try in town, and she had helpful advice for managing our travel across LA.
I loved the neighborhood - a quiet, affluent, residential street in close proximity to restaurants and activities.
We had great success using scooters - I suggest downloading the Lime and Lyft apps in advance of your visit so you're ready to go.
Check-in and check-out were so easy. Darlene has clear directions for everything you will need to access and best utilize the property.
You will want to move in!
Thank you, Darlene, for such a lovely stay!
