Hello ~ My name is Jim and I am a long-time Santa Monica resident.
I have been renting out my 2 extra bedrooms, primarily to overseas visitors, for the last 17 years.
I have met many wonderful people from all over the world doing this ~ you can see some of their photos above.
***Note ~ please be cautious, as there can be scams in the housing section on Craigslist.
I can guarantee you I am 100% legitimate and will make sure you are comfortable with renting from me before proceeding.

I have a very nice fully furnished bedroom available now for $1250 per month.
There is also a $500 fully refundable security deposit.
WiFi and all utilities are included in the monthly rent.
I prefer short term rentals from 1 to 3 months, but longer terms will be considered.
I enjoy meeting new people from other cultures and helping them get introduced to the Los Angeles area, but longer periods can be discussed.
I am open to possibly allowing two friends to share the room for a slightly higher monthly rent of $1500 per month.
This room is very nice and has a high-quality, comfortable queen size bed, large teak armoire and wall length closet for clothes and storage, as well as a desk, chair and lamp.
I especially enjoy learning about other cultures so I give preference to visitors from other countries; however all will be considered.
I supply everything you need including all clean, high-quality, organic-cotton bed linens, towels, etc.
All you need are your clothes and personal items.
My apartment is light and bright with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, located in a very safe area, conveniently close to public transportation, the beach, restaurants, grocery stores and The Third Street Promenade.
You will have full access to a kitchen fully stocked with pots, pans, dishes and eating utensils.
There is also a laundry on site.
I am a respectful, professional male, and I occupy one bedroom that has its own bathroom.
I am also vegetarian and would prefer to find someone who does not plan to cook or eat meat in the apartment.
There is one other friendly roommate in the third bedroom.
You will share your bathroom with this one other person.
I would describe the apartment as friendly and serene, social yet very laid back.
No smoking.
No drugs.
Drinking is okay.
Environmentally minded household: recycle everything possible, compact fluorescent light bulbs everywhere to save electricity, and only all natural cleaning products used.
You should be neat and clean, keeping your room and all common areas neat and picked up, dishes washed when done eating, etc.
Please be social and friendly and enjoy meeting new people.
Any age is fine as long as you are mature enough to take care of a nice place and to pay your portion of the rent on time.
If interested, respond by telling as much about yourself as possible: at the very least, include your age, where you are from, when you want to move in, approximately how long you plan to stay, what you will be doing while in Santa Monica (student/working/vacation/etc.
), and anything else you are willing to share.
Also, a social media reference is appreciated, but not required.
In your response, please include the words “Santa Monica Furnished Room” in the subject line so that I know you have read my entire ad.
