Your stretch of beach

The beach path runs along the sand from Will Rogers State Beach in the north, past Santa Monica Pier, to Venice, about two miles south of the pier, so a morning walk or ride can go as far as you like.

The pier is 6 to 14 minutes on foot from these apartments. Each apartment page shows the walking times from that building to the beach, the pier and Third Street Promenade.

Before you book

Questions guests ask

Can’t find your answer? Ask us directly

How far are these apartments from the beach?

Between 5 and 12 minutes on foot, estimated from each building. Each apartment page shows its own walking times.

Can I walk to Santa Monica Pier?

Yes. The pier is 6 to 14 minutes on foot from the apartments on this page.

Is there a discount for a longer stay?

Yes. Stays of a week or more are discounted automatically, with a bigger discount for a month or more on most apartments. Planning longer? Send us your dates and we’ll come back with a price.

Are there fees on top of the nightly rate?

No service fee. The total at checkout is the nightly rate, the cleaning fee and the city’s hotel tax, and in Santa Monica that tax doesn’t apply to stays of 30 nights or more.

What is the cancellation policy?

You get a full refund if you cancel within 24 hours of booking. After that, the booking is non-refundable. If your plans might change, ask us before you book.
