My boys and I felt right at home in this property. It was the perfect location for our trip to visit Universal Studios and Disneyland. The owner was very caring and it shows in the quality of her property. I hope to return someday.

My daughter and I had a wonderful experience staying at this beach bungalow. The accommodations were excellent for the two of us (she took the bed and I took the daybed). The gas burning space heater was more than sufficient for the chilly nights we were there. We really liked the decor and style of the place and it is literally one block to walk to the beach. The host was absolutely incredible and very friendly. She took care of everything we needed, including the parking pass for the street. We would definitely stay here again!

The place was very clean but had a strong smell of must/mold. Also there was no internet signal and our cell phones did not get service inside the home. We had to go outside and down the driveway to get cell service.

Adorable and comfortable. T’mimah is a fantastic host. You are just steps from beach one way and Santa Monica restaurants the other. Convenient to Venice Beach as well. We would love to stay here again.

Great place and host was very gracious. We struggled with the whole “must provide drivers license” issue as we are victims of identity theft. In the end it all worked out. We enjoyed our stay and everything was as advertised.

We had the most amazing time in Santa Monica. This place is literally next to the beach and walking distance from so many cool shops. You cannot beat the location. The host was also extremely nice and checked on us a couple of times. We loved it

To start, the location couldn’t be better…..minutes to the beach, minutes to Main Street. The small apt itself is rustic, cozy and eclectically decorated …fun! We had everything we needed and our host was lovely.

My husband and I planned a little getaway for the weekend to celebrate my birthday. We found this bungalow to be the perfect location. Just less than a block away from the ocean and a few blocks to nearby shopping and dining. We felt safe and comfortable in and around the bungalow area. It was very clean and our host was most gracious. The vibe was perfect. We would stay here again in the future.

Great location and wonderful host! So much to do within walking distance- food, coffee, beaches! Very safe feeling neighborhood too. Easy walk to Venice beach and Santa Monica pier. Beach cafe 5-10 minutes away. Bike rentals super close. T’mimah was an amazing host - went out of her way to make sure we had an enjoyable stay. Even rented boogie boards for us since hers were broken. The place was actually larger than we expected and plenty of space for our family of 4. We didn’t spend much time inside so was perfect for our needs. Very comfy beds too. It is a studio style so don’t expect separate rooms. With older kids (10&12) was just fine for us. Definitely would stay again and recco to friends!
