Monthly Rentals in Santa Monica Beach

Staying at Rita’s charming cottage was an absolute dream! The location on the Venice Canals is breathtaking—peaceful yet just a short walk to the vibrant energy of Venice Beach and Abbot Kinney. The cottage itself is cozy, beautifully decorated, and stocked with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. Rita was a wonderful host—attentive, communicative, and full of great local recommendations. Waking up to the serene canal views and enjoying coffee on the patio was a highlight of my trip. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect getaway and can’t wait to return. Highly recommend!

I stayed here for 2 months for work, and it was a great spot to call home. As someone completely new to LA, there was a slight learning curve on my part in terms of driving and getting used to the amount of people, but having a spot like Jay's helped feel like you got away from the "crazy". As a solo-female traveler, I never felt unsafe here. Had a window AC but also had nice windows to let cool air circulate. The kitchen had everything I needed to cook my own meals (I personally shopped at Ralph's instead of the closer Trader Joe's/CVS because Ralph's was more economical for me). They also stocked the Airbnb with extra paper towels and toilet paper which was a big thing for me! Jay was always responsive, I never waited more than 10 minutes for a reply. I never really had any issues, but the couple times I did, he resolved them quickly. I love that the location is really close to everything (as he advertised it), too.

I had a fantastic stay at Sam and Amber's place! The location was perfect—close to everything I needed and in a great neighborhood. The space was exactly as described: clean, comfortable, and very welcoming. What truly stood out, though, was their genuine support and honesty. They were always quick to respond and went above and beyond to ensure I had a smooth experience. The check-in and check-out instructions were super clear and easy to follow, which made everything hassle-free. It’s rare to find such thoughtful and reliable hosts. I truly appreciate their kindness and would absolutely stay again. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful stay at Ana place. Great location with lots of restaurants and walking distance to beach. Place was clean, comfortable and private. Ana was very responsive to any question or request we had. All amenities are as described. Would stay at Ana and Russels place again without hesitation.
