We had a lovely stay in the mountains above Malibu! It was just a short drive down a gorgeous windy road down the mountain to several gorgeous beaches. Since it is the middle of summer it was pretty hot inside the actual room, not by fault of the host, it’s just the time of year, and the AC unit hose somehow got disconnected from the wall, and we didn’t notice, so hot air was blowing in our room at the same time as the unit was trying to cool it down. We figured that out and it took about 3 hours for the house to cool down, it was much nicer outside than inside the actual room but hey it was encouragement to get back outside and enjoy the beautiful cali weather! We loved the stay and would love to stay again. The clouds coming in over the mountains was so beautiful in the morning, it felt like a little piece of heaven :)
