"Had a great 2 night stay! Cute property, nice staff, good check in experience. However were a few hidden fees at the end that came as a surprise, such as expensive self parking on a dirt road that could have been better communicated."

10/10 Excellent
"We had an absolutely wonderful stay in Malibu! From day one, the host’s communication was exceptional—responsive, helpful, and incredibly attentive throughout our entire stay. Any question we had was answered immediately, which made everything feel seamless and easy.The home itself was beautiful, impeccably clean, and clearly designed with so much attention to detail. The beds were extremely comfortable, and we truly felt at home from the moment we arrived. We cooked at the house most days, and the kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed.The home is operated through a Control4 system, which took us a minute to get familiar with, but once it was explained, it was fairly easy to use.Overall, a fantastic experience and a beautiful Malibu stay. The level of care, communication, and thought put into the home really stood out. We would absolutely stay again and highly recommend it!"

10/10 Excellent
"I had a blissful writing retreat here over a holiday weekend and it exceeded all my expectations! The property is older but the listing is clear about what to expect and the tradeoff is that it's reasonably priced for the area. I really appreciated a budget-friendly option with ocean views. Everything wonderful: - Pristine interior. Their cleaning team is incredible, everything was spotless. - Tons of space. 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, huge kitchen with everything you could need to cook. Small kids could even have their own "room" in the primary's walk-in closet with the air mattress. This would be a great rental for an extended family with kids who spend the day at the beaches and unwind in the evenings.- Beautiful furnishings, comfy beds, endless towels and linens.- Exceptional communication. Detailed check-in info, immediately responses from the host throughout, and very accommodating when I had special requests.To be aware: - Exterior reflects property's age. But the garden is nice for eating in the evenings and the hot tub was the cleanest of any vacational rental I've ever had. - The house is divided into 3 units with shared walls. If other guests were noisy, you'd hear them (wasn't an issue for us at all).- On a dead-end street off a highway, so you have to drive everywhere (this is typical for Malibu).- No ocean view in common areas. 2 of the 4 bedrooms have views. We didn't need all 4 bedrooms so we created a seating area in one of the two rooms with a view."
