Bungalow vacation rentals in Santa Monica

Epic location—right on the ocean, which made for a deeply calming personal retreat. I got to know Malibu in a whole new way. Everything about the stay was seamless: incredibly clean, smooth check-in, and top-notch communication. Malibu Suites was professional from start to finish.

I’m already dreaming of when we can return to this beautiful beach home again! We are Airbnb Luxe hosts ourselves, and I can honestly say that Dana and Kristi completely exceeded my expectations with all of the intricate details of added amenities that they provided. From the welcome Champagne and chocolates, to the beach gear, to the skincare and lip gloss complimentary items, and MORE ugh there was literally nothing that they didn’t think of. The place was immaculate, and both hosts were so responsive and kind! This was one of the best staycations my husband and I could’ve asked for. Our toddler as well as our fur baby were also in heaven. The great attention to detail coupled with the amazing location (3min walk to the beach, Main Street and Pacific City) was enough to have us on Zillow wondering how we could live there forever LOL We miss OC life! They were even able to accommodate a later checkout of so our son could have one last morning beach blast. TEN out of TEN! ⭐️

Wonderful Stay in Venice Beach! We had a fantastic time at this cozy house just steps from the beach. The location is perfect—close to great restaurants, shops, and the Venice Boardwalk. The place was clean, and had everything we needed. The host was friendly and responsive. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy the best of Venice Beach!

Súper agradable y la verdad valió cada dólar

Great spot to stay, very clean and convenient location.

Our stay was wonderful despite the June gloom. The place was warm, cozy, and thoughtfully prepared, making it feel like a true home away from home. We really appreciated how clean and comfortable everything was. A huge thanks to Zack, Izzy, and Val for their hospitality and quick communication—they truly made our vacation a positive and memorable experience. We would definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway!

Hannah has such a beautiful home! You can tell that this is a space where every detail was carefully curated to provide a relaxing vacation. They're guest house is very special and it feels like they genuinely care about you having a delightful time and offer a lot of privacy. I had a great stay and would definitely come back in the future!

Absolutely Charming Stay in Montrose! We had such a wonderful stay at Gillan’s adorable cottage in the Montrose neighborhood near Pasadena. The moment we walked in the cottage, we felt like doing a happy dance. It was cozy, inviting, and immediately felt like home. Everything was spotless and clearly well cared for, with thoughtful touches throughout. The fun, eclectic artwork all around the cottage added personality and made the space feel unique. The location was also perfect for our trip—we were in town for a concert at the Rose Bowl, and the cottage was an ideal home base. Montrose itself is a hidden gem of a neighborhood, full of charming shops and great local restaurants. Gillan was a fantastic host—responsive, friendly, and quick to help when we had a minor issue with the internet. Thanks to her fast support, it was resolved in minutes. We genuinely loved everything about this stay and wouldn't hesitate to book this lovely cottage again. Thanks, Gillan!

We had a wonderful stay at the Blue Bungalow! Bitty’s instructions were clear, accurate, and incredibly helpful—from finding the place and checking in to understanding the house guidelines. The home felt private, peaceful, and cozy—just the right size for our group of three during our five-night stay. We really appreciated the thoughtful touches throughout the space; it’s clear that every detail was carefully considered to make the house feel like a true home. Bitty was also very kind and supportive in offering advice related to the purpose of our trip, which we truly appreciated!

We had a wonderful stay here! It’s a beautifully restored craftsman with all of the amenities you would need. Very walkable to restaurants, coffee, shops, etc.

Heidi was a super host. Provided us with breakfast makings and snacks and even checked more than once if we needed anything. Always quick to respond. Apartment had everything we needed for this trip including private parking. I specifically looked for a place with parking and was in LA for about five minutes before I realized just how valuable and important it was. Close to all freeways so even with LA traffic, none of our drives were terrible. And checkout was probably the easiest I’ve ever had. I would definitely recommend Heidi’s AirBNB.

Fantastic place! You just can't beat the location. The house is immaculate with everything you need. Close to/ walkable to restaurants and shops. No wonder it is always booked up. Don't wait to book it!

I just had a very enjoyable and relaxing 3 night stay at Deanna's place. It was just as described - in a great central location - easy to access, private and comfortable. While it is on a busy street, the guest house is amazingly quiet and peaceful. It is private and has a lovely small garden that is safe and secure for your travelling pup. My little dog enjoyed puttering around and laying on the grass in the sun. It was a very hot weekend and I was concerned about being uncomfortable but the AC worked great and we looked forward to getting back to the guest house every day to relax in the coolness. Bed was very comfortable, bathroom and kitchen clean and fully stocked. Just a very comfortable and easy weekend. Deanna was incredibly responsive and proactive, making sure that we were happy and comfortable the whole stay. I will definitely book again!

This was one of the best places I’ve ever been to. The amenities, the decor coffee message over the stove with the cat , the small nooks/spaces she’s created indoors and outside - contribute to a feeling of being “at home”. Even a blender, French press, dish towels (! which is a bit of a rarity in my experience). This is a place I will definitely return to.
