The place was exactly as described in VRBO: near restaurants, quiet, comfortable and clean. There was space for me to do yoga and what I needed to make breakfast each morning. It was exactly what I was hoping it would be. The area is charming. Many thanks to the host for a lovely stay.

Our stay at Piccolo Bellagio was very comfortable, and you couldn't beat the location! Montana Ave and all of its restaurants were around the corner, and it was a lovely 1-mile walk to Ocean Ave. The apartment was a great place to relax after a long day, thanks to its comfortable living room. We didn't do any cooking, but the kitchen was certainly well-equipped to do so if we'd wanted. We'd definitely make a return visit on our next trip to Santa Monica.

We had a great time during our stay at this beautiful home while visiting our son who lives nearby! Sara was a very gracious & responsive host & really made us feel at home. We loved the fresh flowers & biscotti! The home was extremely clean, bright, and comfortable & the location can't be beat. We were walking distance to a ton of great shops, restaurants & the beach. We would not hesitate to stay here again the next time we're in town! Thank you Sara for the great stay!

Our rental was wonderful, very clean and the rooms were bright with lots of light. It was also close to so many wonderful restaurants and shops, very nicely located. Our interactions with the host were satisfying and prompt, which we really appreciated. I would definitely consider returning to the property for an additional stay. It's close to my daughter and her family's home in Santa Monica and worked especially well for us. We were pleased.
