Vacation rentals in Santa Monica

Tano’s place is very cute and clean. We appreciated being able to walk a couple blocks to lots of restaurants/bars/shops. Although we didn’t get to spend much time at the apartment since we were on the move the whole time, we would definitely return for a more leisurely stay.

An amazing listing for a Santa Monica getaway! Very clean and quaint neighborhood, easily accessible with a car, and a gorgeous studio guest room for us to come home to every evening. Thank you for your amazing hospitality, and we hope to stay here again!

Location, host, scenery, everything was a 10/10! So much to do near the area and the neighborhood is beautiful. Very family friendly. Pattie is just the absolute sweetest! Definitely plan to stay again when I return !!

The house was perfect location for our needs as we spent most of our time at LMU (8-10min drive) Neighbor was peaceful and easy for morning/evening walks. Kitchen was fully equipped for all our cooking needs. Jennie was a fantastic host who was super responsive with questions and recommendations. We’ll definitely be back!

The sweetest spot in Santa Monica! Kevin + Birgit have created a beautiful space to come and go and enjoy the neighbourhood, and an even nicer place to come back to. They are excellent, generous hosts and make you feel at home straight away. Clean, light, airy, and with a birdsong soundtrack. So good I stayed twice!

We loved staying at this cute little bungalow. The location was perfect, the decor was cute, and there was plenty of space. One of the things that was a blessing, there was TP, paper towels, and a few necessities that we did not have to run out and purchase more. Access to beach towels, chairs, and bikes was a plus. The location was easy in and out and the parking space was a bonus. There was just 1 day that someone parked in our space so we took our car to our sons and parked there, luckily he was close. I would highly recommend this space to anyone traveling to Santa Monica, it was just perfect! Thanks and happy summer.

Perfect place for our anniversary weekend! Close to our wedding venue at Calamigos for when we went for a spa day, but also close to the beach for a romantic dinner! So being centrally located was ideal! The Airbnb was also perfect place to come back to after a long day in the sun! Comfy bed, with AC, we loved just cuddling up, watching a movie and relaxing with the view!

Judy's place is absolutely wonderful! 10/10 recommend. It was a perfect place to stay where we could work remotely and explore Santa Monica / Brentwood in the evenings. it's super clean and organized. She's a lovely, wonderful host who takes impeccable care of the place.

Beautifully decorated and well-appointed studio in a lovely neighbourhood in Santa Monica. It’s a little haven - very peaceful after a day’s travelling. The studio is squeaky clean & extremely well-equipped - Darlene has thought of everything - top-notch vegan-friendly toiletries too. The bed is super-comfy with quality bedding. The kitchen is very well-stocked. I only wished we could have stayed longer than two nights. The outside area is delightful and very private. However the outstanding feature of this Air BnB is Darlene herself. What a fantastic warm welcome - it makes such a difference! Freshly baked chocolate chip banana bread and British PG Tips!! Very thoughtful and made us feel right at home. A fantastic host!! The beach and Main Street are a mile away - everything in description is accurate - and there are some lovely cafes and shops within a 10-minute walk. Thyme cafe was perfect for breakfast!! Highly recommend!! Thank you Darlene!

Lisa's apartment is ideally located, close to the beach and lots of fun. places in Santa Monica. The apartment is clean and comfortable, and Lisa's instructions were clear and helpful. In addition, she very kindly allowed me to check in early from an early arriving flight, which was very helpful. I would happily return and would;d recommend it to anyone staying in Santa Monica.

Teresa's place was super easy to find, we drove from the airport in about 15-20 mins. The place feels like a home but had the cleanliness of a top tier hotel. The kitchen was spotless and had everything we needed. The beds were super comfy as was the sofa. The little deck and garden were perfect for chilling in the sunshine or eating alfresco in the evenings. We used the bikes to cycle along the beach and were given some great recommendations for food and hang out spots. Overall we absolutely LOVED staying here. The place is super vibey, really well located for walking, cycling or driving/ubering to some great Santa Monica and LA spots. We would highly recommend staying here and would love to come again!

Sam and Amber are great hosts and their place is perfect for a few days Santa Monica and LA. It’s very close to the beach, pier and the 3rd street boulevard (shopping and restaurants). Both of them replied quickly and were always helpful. The apartment has everything you need and is well equipped. The free parking in a garage is a big plus! We would come back and can absolutely recommend the two and their apartment!

This is by far the best Airbnb I’ve stayed in. The photos do not do it justice. The architecture of the home and garden is phenomenal. The sweeping views of the ocean are jaw dropping and made for a relaxing stay. Robby was very welcoming and helped with many recommendations from restaurants to things to see around Malibu. I will definitely be back in the future and highly recommend anyone book this home if it’s available!

John’s place was clean and in a great location. Walking to the beach was so easy, would definitely stay again!

Great area! Short walk to the beach and a short drive to the pier. The kitchen was stocked with all the essentials and made dinner time easy. Comfy beds, big bathrooms and a nice quiet outside area. The house has great history and felt cozy. The kitchen area is an add on that can only be accessed through the courtyard area. Be prepared that you will hear the owners/occupants above you when they walk and you often can hear them talking.

wonderful location and great amenities! super comfy accommodations and great pool table!

If you're looking for a place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, this is the place for you! This place has *everything* (literally) to help you unwind, all you have to do is show up and relax. Not to mention the beautiful mountain views and the awesome drives down the winding roads! Char was super responsive and readily available if you needed anything. Thank you again for allowing us to stay in your little slice of paradise. It reminded us as to why we love California so much!

The moment we saw the breathtaking view on the listing my partner and I knew we just had to stay here. The host was very friendly and responsive. The place itself was clean and the photos provided showed exactly what they offered. The bed was so comfortable and the bedding smelled amazing. Although on the smaller side, we weren’t too worried as we were only there for one night. We arrived shortly after check in and spent some time on the deck admiring the view and then when it got darker started the pit. Check in was smooth and easy to follow. Clear instructions were provided for the fire pit and the sauna. Neighborhood was very quiet even in a place as busy as LA. Would definitely stay here again for a quick trip!

Comfortable, airy, safe, and convenient. Easy parking and access to Venice.

This is our second stay with Clay and would highly recommend his place. Spotless, excellent location at the border of Venice and 1 block from the beach. Restaurants and Cows End Coffee! His place is very comfortable, clean, quiet and cute/charming. Comfy mattresses and linens for good sleeping. I would t pass this one up!

The accommodation was as described. Very comfortable and very clean. I would recommend it

Shell House was the perfect stay to end our road trip! Courtney has been an ideal host, no question was too much, she was always quick to respond and so accommodating. The house it’s self was so idilic and the aesthetic fit the location. It was close to the beach and Abbott Kinney BL for shops, coffee and restaurants. We would 100% stay here again and recommend to anyone considering a visit to LA to book Shell House.

Clean, comfortable and conveniently located. The house is very spacious and has everything you need and more. Philipp was a great host! I’ll be booking this place again for my next LA visit. Highly recommend!

Heidi was friendly, greeted us at the gate, showed us around, checked in the next day to make sure all was well. She'd thoughtfully supplied us with delicious blueberry muffins, coffee, tea, staples in the fridge, creamer, milk, a stick of butter, a couple eggs, etc. It was so welcome after a day of travel. The kitchen's well equipped. I was easily able to make pancakes, cookies, breakfast and dinners, no problem. The beds were VERY comfortable! The bed linens were freshly washed and soft, as were the plentiful towels! Comfy sofa + armchair. If you're looking for a sleek modern place this is not for you, but for those who appreciate a cozy slice of vintage LA, as we do, you'll enjoy staying here. The dog friendly neighbourhood was great for us! Always people walking their dogs. We felt safe taking our pup out, day and night. Being a doggy neighbourhood, during the day you'll hear barking every so often. Restaurants, shops, grocery, ice cream 5 min walk! We'd definitely stay again!
