El Tovar by the Sea

Just 15 miles west of Los Angeles, Santa Monica is a beachfront city with an enviable climate and location. Santa Monica is conveniently located right in between the iconic Venice Beach and the glamourous white sand beaches of Malibu, drawing millions of visitors every year. With Santa Monica’s laidback vibe and plentiful amenities, it’s easy to see why renters are looking for apartments and condos in the area. Of course, the Santa Monica State Beach is the heart of the city, anchoring major attractions and local hotspots. The Annenberg Community Beach House is an historic mansion turned recreation center offering fitness classes, a pool, and more. The Famous Santa Monica Pier houses an amusement park, an aquarium, an arcade, eateries, and much more. Right next to the pier is the original Muscle Beach, a gymnastics and fitness site created in 1934. Nearby Third Street Promenade provides a range of shops, restaurants, and street performances in a pedestrian-only outdoor plaza.
