We had a wonderful 5-day stay in this charming family-friendly home with our extended families. Megan was such a gracious host! She had a bottle of chilled champagne & fresh orange juice waiting for us when we arrived. We were in SoCal celebrating my husband’s Pepperdine University graduation & the location was perfect to drive up Highway 1 to Malibu. We booked his graduation dinner on the patio of the FigtreeCafe one block down from the home, so this house was exactly what we were seeking! The convenience of being steps away from Venice beach walkway made the trip most memorable. We parked our minivan rental in the provided garage & there was no need to deal with the hassles of driving or parking during our stay. We could walk to restaurants, coffee shops, CVS from this ideal location. The kids were easily entertained with all the available board games galore in the home, along with books, balls, & toys that made our stay such a pleasure. We took advantage of the available bikes & rode the beach bike pathway up to Santa Monica, which was the quintessential California experience. The beds were very comfy & clean, the TV’s & sound system were highly utilized by the guys, & my 5 yr old son couldn’t get enough of the Wii game system. No one, no matter what age, could be bored staying in this home. We BBQ’d on the patio’s large grill & relaxed under the cute patio lights. The kids played on the beach every day & loved knowing we could walk a few steps to the sand. I greatly appreciated the washer/dryer to clean their wet/dirty clothes. The home had plenty of towels & beach toys. We had a packed house & the 2 bathrooms & 1 shower was never a problem. We fell in love with the house & our families had such a wonderful time that we plan to try to come back annually for family meet up weekends.
