Spacious appartment, 15 minutes walk from beach with fully equipped kitchen and parking space in the garage directly acc
Pros: The apartment was a 15 minutes walk to the beach which was good. It came with a parking space in the garage under the block. It had a lift from the parking garage directly to the floor where the appartment was. It had a separate bedroom which was quiet as its window was on the internal courtyard. The bathroom was large. It was quite spacious for 2 people. The kitchen was very well equipped with dishwasher, oven, large fridge etc.It was clean and had all the usual toiletries. It had good WiFi although it took us a while to get to find the box and connect up.
Cons: The blinds needed servicing in the lounge as they could not be closed/open. Neither in the bedroom. The bedroom windows were tricky to open. The appartment was less lit than we would have liked. For instance there is no hall light, so you enter in the dark, a couple of lightbulbs needed replacing. Arriving by car is fiddly because you need to collect the keys from a lockbox by car and then go into the appartment for the garage remote and then drive round to the garage to park the car. (It would have been easier to have the remote together with the keys). Having said that it had its own garage space which we really liked. On our checkout, the lockbox had been forcibly removed, so we left the keys on the appartment. We could have had a few more plates and glasses… The shower was within a bath tub - not a problem for us - but might not suit everyone.

Very homely apartment in a fantastic location!
Pros: I had a great two week stay here in Santa Monica. The location is ideal, about a 10 minute walk to the beach, which made morning walks and sunsets incredibly easy. The one bedroom apartment is beautiful and feels very homely. It had everything I needed for a comfortable stay, and the balcony was a really nice bonus space to relax. It felt well set up for both short and longer stays. Overall, a very enjoyable stay and I’d happily come back.
Cons: The only issue was that there was no WiFi for the first three days, but it was sorted promptly once raised and communication was good throughout.
