Comfortable and quiet
Very comfortable property. Good location. Garage parking space is too small because there another car that is too close to the guest spot. We ended up parking on the street which was fine as there were plenty of spaces.

Excellent location, quiet neighbourhood great property
This house was the end of our road trip through California and it didn’t disappoint. The property was exactly as listed. It is located in a nice neighbourhood and we walked to Santa Monica pier to enjoy restaurants and sunsets and walked back later in the evenings as well. It was great base to explore the rest of LA. The loft house had everything we needed and we would definitely stay again.

Modern loft in beautiful Santa Monica
We loved the place! The upstairs patio was lovely. Having a garage and washer/dryer was SUCH a bonus! Obviously the stairs (especially the small spiral set) are a bit of a challenge - big suitcases wud be hard to lug up to the upper bedroom. I would suggest a full length mirror added to that room. Our 24 yr old daughter stayed up there, worked from the desk part of the time and LOVED it!

Great stay!
My family and I stayed for the 4th of July weekend and had a nice time. The drive to Universal was only 30 minutes and the drive to the beach was 10. Nice little kitchen with all the utensils you could need, lots of streaming services on both TVs, clean, cute, and very comfortable.

Perfect Santa Monica Home-Base
The home was beautiful, amazing natural light from windows throughout the open floor plan. Comfortable living area, great full kitchen (we used most nights), Nestled on a quiet neighborhood street but just a short drive to Venice Boardwalk, Santa Monica Pier, & Marina Del Rey. We also had convenient drives to the Hollywood sign and Griffith Observatory, the LACMA, Walk of Fame, Beverly Hills & Rodeo Drive. We needed a location near the coast but reasonable commutes to everything else LA has to offer. Both bedrooms were comfortable and the loft room was exquisite. All of us took turns enjoying the roof patio as well and it was nice to have garage parking. Another special touch, and much appreciated, was the beach chairs, umbrella and towels available for our use. It was a very pleasant stay and the amenities were perfect.

Loft House - Santa Monica
My family loved staying at the Loft House for 5 days while we attended my sons’s graduation from UCLA. It had everything we needed for 4 people. We loved the cleanliness, location, quiet neighborhood, modernness, and other amenities of the Loft House. Host, Deborah, was just a text away when we needed her with an issue we had with the gas stove. Everything else was excellent. The only problem maybe the spiral stair case to the second floor that is steep and may not be good for older people or small children. Highly recommend staying here and will stay at the Loft House again in the future.

Relaxing Stay in SaMo
Our family really enjoyed our stay here. The neighborhood is pretty and quiet, with easy access to all that Santa Monica has to offer. The owner was super helpful. You will need to access the loft bedroom via a spiral staircase--no problem for us, but don't try to carry heavy luggage up! Would recommend this property heartily!

Great home, nice neighborhood
The garage apartment was clean, stocked and chill for my visit to the area. Unfortunately, much of my stay was rainy, which sprung a leak above my head in bed on night one, which was not great! I understand that contractors are hard to come by on weekends, but I also expected someone to check it during my stay. Instead, I relocated to the loft (which was awesome) and slept peacefully and without rain for the rest of my stay. The kitchen was well equipped for food preparation and the availability of parking was clutch. I suspect the leak will be addressed for a future renter, and I would definitely recommend staying at that location for families visiting the area.

Beautiful spot
This was the perfect spot for our family of four to stay while visiting the LA area. It looked exactly like the photos - very clean and well-stocked, along with plenty of charm. The check-in instructions were thorough, and the owner was responsive. The location was also great; we walked to a restaurant and a grocery store during our stay, and it was within easy driving distance of the other sites we wanted to visit. I'd definitely stay here again.
