Beautiful 1 br apartment very close to Santa Monica beach. It has been recently remodeled so everything feels new. The front door opens onto a gated courtyard, so the front yard area feels very secure.
It was wonderful being only a very short walk to the beach and not having to worry about finding day parking for beach activities. We have stayed in about 5 Airbnb's near the beach in the LA area over the years and this one is now my favorite. I find Santa Monica Beach a little more family friendly than Venice Beach, so being on Santa Monica Beach is also a plus.
A minor note for future guests. It is a bit confusing to find the first time, so be sure to carefully read through the instructions they send you the day of check-in. Not a problem after the first time.
