We had a wonderful stay at Aina's place. The location is amazing, walking distance from great stores on the same street (4th), you will be at the beach in 2 min! And you'll find everything you need to eat from Nice restaurants ( we recommend Tender Greens) to grocery ( walking distance from Whole Foods). The appartment is really nice, the bed is really comfortable. The kitchen is well equiped.
Aina answered to our first email on less than 30 min. We were looking for a flat for the next day and she arranged everything very quickly. Her mum helped us during our stay, she's a lovely person, very helpful.
You won't find a better spot to stay in Santa Monica! We definetely have a new home in Santa Monica for next trips here! ;)
Enjoy!
