We had a lovely visit to Topanga on our one night stay at Gheorghe's and Lascu's charming guest house. We were warmly welcomed on arrival, and our hosts went out of their way to make sure we knew the best spots on our way down to the ocean. And while compact, the space offers everything you might need for a short stay for two. We definitely hope to return.
Also I want to note that we stayed just a couple of days prior to the reviewer here that mentioned all the bugs. It was a warm late afternoon when we arrived, so we opened up all the windows and doors to enjoy the cool breezes. I am a mosquite magnet, so if there were any around they would have feasted on me for sure. Not one bite. Our entire stay we only saw one creature indoors, which a smalll spider that joined me after my shower. My husband, a naturalist, gathered him up and took him outdoors to safety. Spiders are amazing and beneficial creatures. I only hope the one we met didn't meet a sad fate in it's lovely canyon home at the hands of the other recent reviewer here.
