Ryan’s place is wonderful. I would consider it a perfect spot to stay if you want a place away from the city and near a lot nature and beaches. Topanga is gorgeous. The mountains are breathtaking. It can be nerve-racking to drive up and down, especially at night if you’re not used to driving in mountains. But with cautious driving you’ll be fine. We stayed there for the majority of our honeymoon and it was a perfect space for 2 people. It was so wonderful we wished we had just stayed the entire time there. Ryan is super responsive and helpful. The little shops nearby are fantastic as well. Malibu is just 25 mins away. He provides you a list of restaurant recommendations. We would definitely stay again.
