We wanted a comfortable place to relax in Santa Monica and we were not disappointed. The flat is large, airy, bright, well equipped and comfortable. Check-in was easy, and Tom left good notes and instructions. As Ton's site says, the flat is not right on the beach - we knew that and welcomed that as it is a bit quieter to be back a few blocks. But it was a peaceful 10 minute walk to the beach through a quiet neighbourhood and that was great as far as we were concerned. Good access to groceries, as we ate in one night, and also to great restaurants in Santa Monica and Venice. This spot was as advertised, or better, and all we hoped for.
