Our stay in the loft met and exceeded our expectations. The location is great - we didn’t have a car but could walk to nearby restaurants and run down to the beach. The welcome basket with snacks was a very nice touch, there were plenty of towels, blankets and essential supplies (shampoo, soap, conditioner, coffee, tea, etc.), and the kitchen was well equipped although we did not cook. Communication with our hosts was seamless and they were very responsive. We’d definitely recommend this place if you’re visiting Santa Monica.
