This is one of the best of my AirBnB experiences. I grew up in Santa Monica so know all of the neighborhoods very well and this is one of the nicest. Extremely quiet and safe street with ample parking, beautiful houses all around, and lush greenery. The amenities are almost new condition.
The backyard of this place is huge and the 20' high hedges surrounding it make it completely private, with a large lawn, some kind of fruit tree, and many cacti, a fire pit and ping pong table. The living room and bedroom have completely unobstructed view into the garden through multi-slide glass doors that open fully to about 15' in width.
The bed is huge and super comfortable. As mentioned, the whole place has a filtration system - we had a bath and it was crystal clear water. It has central air which kept the place nice and comfortable the whole time. The living room tv is gigantic.
The hosts live in the upstairs unit, but the place really is private in the way it is constructed - there is a door and stairway connecting them, but it is closed the whole time. They gave us a quick tour during check-in. Otherwise, it felt like we had a house to ourselves.
Highly recommended.
