Gorgeous place with amazing sweeping views of the Pacific - there's really nothing like waking up to this beauty. Ling & David were excellent at communicating check-in instructions far in advance and the drive up was really easy. Place is actually quite close to most of the amenities and restaurants close by. We had a lovely time hiking in the national forests and walking around the beaches. Things to note - this is outdoors / indoors living as in do not leave anything (food, sweets, etc out) or the bugs (in our case ants) will go after them. I had a honey face mask (sealed) out in the bathroom and they were all over it in just a day's time and later that evening there were a stream of ants going from one wall to the other (kitchen to bedroom - not related to food being out I think they were just travelling from Point A to B). Ling was very responsive in pointing out the bug spray under the kitchen sink gets rid of them but we were surprised to find these visitors nonetheless so be mindful and keep your stuff sealed (maybe put it all in the fridge). We had a lovely time and look back on Malibu fondly - highly recommend.
