Sam was a wonderful host! Responded almost immediately every time I messaged him. The place looked exactly like the photos, and was absolutely gorgeous! Almost beachfront property, with an idyllic view of the city and the beach. Quiet, comfortable, clean with all the amenities of home. Much more affordable than any hotels around, with much more for the money! Access to private parking spot, a pool, hot tub and gym. Perfectly situated halfway between Venice and Santa Monica : only a 20 minute walk to Santa Monica pier! We will definitely rent from Sam again. Our stay couldn't have been more perfect! Thank you!
