We loved our stay! The staff is so helpful and polite. Rooms are spacious and clean, it's like staying in an apartment. I absolutely love the quiet little swimming pool, with a beautiful garden surrounding it. Location can not be beat! This is a gem of a hotel; it is not a newer place or upscale, but if you are looking for a place with a full kitchen, near the beach and a quiet atmosphere- Cal Mar is the perfect spot!

If you love the 70s Hotel California vibe (I do), this is a must stay. Spacious, clean but non-updated lodgings. Helpful housekeeping. Very memorable stay! One shabby screen hung irreparably on the window.

Loved being able to easily walk to the Saturday Farmers. The rate seemed high for an older fewer amenities location. It would be great for a family looking to prepare all their own meals.

My family had a wonderful stay at Cal Mar. We stayed there with two teens. It was neat and quiet and still so close to the beach and downtown. For us, it was really great with the possibility to do some cooking. But please check the bed size as the beds in our suite were a little small for two persons.

Pictures don’t look like the real thing. Some broken blinds for balcony door, dead bolt lock is broken as when locking it, it locks you in and you have to mess with it just to get the door open. Over all not that bad

Friendly Motel Near the Pier
A very friendly, well maintained and presented 50s motel in the heart of Santa Monica, a short walk to the pier and the shopping district. The room I stayed in was HUUUGE with a full kitchen. The bathroom was small but the shower was hot and powerful. Some of the tiles were a bit damaged - I don't know if they were the original ones but they could have been! The whole place was spotlessly clean. There were a couple of maintenance niggles - one of the bedside lamps wasn't working and the security bolt thing on the door was loose and wouldn't have been any use were an unexpected visitor to come knocking. The pool area is lovely and the pool is heated year round, so had I had time, I would DEFINITELY have been swimming during my February trip! Everybody working there was super-friendly. I have to say, that has not always been my experience in LA. If I was to visit Santa Monica again, I would absolutely stay at Cal Mar Hotel Suites again. I can't put it better than that.
