We stayed at the inn for 3 nights at the end of our two week holiday at the end of June and thought the inn was really lovely. The room was very comfortable, nicely decorated and furnished. The staff were extremely welcoming and helpful, going out of their way to answer questions and give help and advice. The afternoon wine and snacks were substantial and the breakfasts were delicious and by far the best we had during our holiday. The public areas are also lovely and there are lots of places to sit and relax. The beach is a short walk away and there are bikes to borrow if you feel energetic enough to cycle along the boardwalk. We cycled to Venice Beach which is a nice ride. There is also a computer with internet access, which guests are free to use, useful for checking in online at the end of our stay. The inn was the most expensive place we stayed and I suspect we probably could have got a better deal had we shopped around. However, we had a very enjoyable stay and would definitely go back if we are in the Santa Monica area in the future.

Great hotel, great room, great peole, great food! We stayed there for three days, during our 10-days vacation in Los Angeles.
Everything spells perfection since the moment you step into the lobby. We were welcomed by a young lady who kindly took us on a tour of the hotel and of our room
The room, a standard one, featured charming furniture and wonderful atmosphere
The breakfast then... everyday fresh fruits and cakes just for us!
It did cost, but it was worth every penny!
Last but not least, the location is perfect for people visiting Los Angeles and looking for a peaceful place to rest after a full day sightseeging.

What a great place to stay! The grounds are beautiful, lovely communal areas and we had a fantastic room with private balcony and 4 poster bed. It's only a 2 minute walk from a really quiet part of the beach and a 20 min walk from the shops & restaurants of Santa Monica. The homemade food is also lovely (I want some more of those cookies!)

  • Liked — Beautiful grounds, cookies, luxurious room
  • Disliked — quite pricey compared to other B&B's we stayed in in California

What a beautiful house! We were welcomed with a bottle of champagne, chocolates and homemade cookies with a note from the owners saying congratulations on our recent wedding. The room was gorgeous with everything you could possibly need (No. 1). The house was comfy and relaxed and staff incredibly friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious and different everyday. The location is great just a few minutes walk from the beach and about 20 minutes into Santa Monica itself along the beach. We took advantage of the bikes available for hire from the hotel, free of charge, and rode all the way along the boardwalk to Venice Beach. There is also a bus stop just across the street from which you can catch buses into Santa Monica and then all over LA. Sadly we didn't get chance to use the hot tub - maybe next time!

Everything from the moment we checked in was hassle-free and better than expected. The house is beautiful and the rooms are very comfortable. Warm cookies, apple cider and chocolate were waiting for us in our room when we arrived. The breakfast was amazing and the location is right near the beach. We couldn't have picked a better place to stay.
