we loved staying at randy and bruce's guest house - the house is beautiful (awesome, well-stocked kitchen), spotless, and in a perfect location! the beach, abbot kinney, santa monica are all within walking distance - and we can't say enough about them as hosts - they were so thoughtful (guidebooks! movies! directions! breakfast treats!) and friendly and their kids are so fun and amazing! this is a really special place and we hope to make our way back someday!
