If you are looking for a soul-soothing respite, then you need look no further than this wonderful guesthouse perched in the Malibu hills, in a canyon above the ocean. The scents of pine, jasmine, and ocean air surround the peaceful and very private balcony, where hummingbirds gather in the trees each evening, all creating a most enchanting overlook from which to watch the waves ebb and flow along the shore. The view is truly magnificent. Inside, you will find a lovely and calming space with a delightfully cozy bed with butter-soft linens and blankets. You can also enjoy the amazing ocean view through the window. Though AC is available, the cooling night breeze makes for a very restful sleep—with the screened windows open (we were here the second week of July). Jay is all my favorite things in a person—thoughtful, kind, warm, and genuine. These qualities are expressed immediately upon meeting her, in her care for you during your stay, and in the many small luxuries she affords her guests: a large variety of drinks and snacks including wine, beer, sparkling waters, coffees, cheese, fruit, different kinds of crackers, chocolate, breakfast noshes, fragrant soaps and lotions, and a bedside table with 110v outlet and USB ports. Though you feel a world away from the hustle and bustle of the town and busy PCH, you are just a few minutes from being in the heart of Malibu. Treat yourself to time in this superb and memorable place.
