Gem of a place, great location

A cozy getaway just a block from the beach and close to good coffee and food options. The carriage house was a great spot for the 2 of us and Dayle was an excellent host. A very positive experience all around!

Lovely home

Great house for a family of four with all the necessary accommodations. Comfortable bed and fully equipped kitchen. Really cute decor and a nice patio and one block from the beach. I would give 5 stars for location but due to the rising homelessness and drug use, it was a disappointing factor. Not Dayles fault but a sad reality Still a great spot to stay!

Family Trip to Santa Monica

Our fam loved our stay in Santa Monica-great location steps away from the beach, bike trail, pier, and restaurants. The living space is bright, clean, and comfortable. Dayle is a great host; she made us feel welcome and made check-in/out a breeze.

Charming Cottage in a Perfect Location

We recently stayed at this cozy cottage in Santa Monica and had a wonderful experience. The location is unbeatable—just minutes from the beach and Santa Monica Pier. It’s a fantastic home base for exploring everything the area has to offer.While the space is a bit tight for a family of four, it’s well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. If you’re looking for a charming spot in an ideal location, this cottage is a great choice. We’d happily stay here again!

Amazing place... Shhh... Don't tell too many people :)

We loved it. Close to the beach. If you want to be a tourist head to the Santa Monica pier, if you want to be a local head south to Venice. Great location and so much to do. Hosts were also great!

Perfect

I absolutely loved my stay at Dayle's home. It is beautifully decorated with many amenities that you need for your stay at the beach. My family and I enjoyed the walkability of the location and went to the beach/pier every day of our stay. I actually walked 13 miles one day - Venice Beach, Marina Del Ray - so enjoyable and beautiful. The pier was the highlight of the trip for my granddaughter. We purchased the wristband which is good for the entire day. We were able to return in the evening to the pier and ride the rides one more time before the day ended. Dayle is a great host - communicates well and it was so easy to "check in". I would love to come back and stay here again!

Honeymoon in Santa Monica

We finished our amazing California honeymoon in this wonderful spot in Santa Monica. Dayle was a welcoming host, communication was easy and the property perfect. Easy to get to the beach and all the restaurants and nightlife of SM and Venice Beach. Perfect little courtyard for a meal in when we needed a night in too!

Great beach cottage right near the beach!

I can't say enough wonderful things about Dayle and her beach cottage. She thought of absolutely everything! The check in process was super easy and parking was easily available on the street and in a neighboring lot- both with provided passes! We never had any issues coming home late at night. The cottage itself is delightful-two floors with a queen bed and bathroom downstairs and full kitchen upstairs. When we were there, it was a bit chilly so we used the heat. No problem at all! Plenty of blankets, pillows, towels. And the shower! What great water pressure....it was super! The location of the unit couldn't be any better. Three minutes walk to the beach and about ten minutes to Santa Monica Pier. You couldn't ask for anything more! We will definitely be back! Thanks again for such a lovely stay.
