David and Ling were extremely responsive to any questions we had. The house is lovely and exactly as described. We didn't cook much in the home, although the kitchen is well stocked if you wanted to make a meal. Use the guidebook they provide! It was extremely useful as this was our first trip to Malibu. We took long walks Carbon Beach, Broad Beach, and Point Dume State Park and admired the real estate. We ate at Duke's (twice for "wine Wednesday!") and Plate Malibu. We took a day trip to Ojai. The weather was a little on the cool side for Malibu so we didn't sit outside much, although the view from the inside was just as spectacular. The oranges on the tree were nearly ripe but that didn't stop us from having a few during our stay! My favorite part of each day was waking up to the sunrise. Words cannot describe how beautiful it is through the floor to ceiling glass windows. The home gets a little warm when the afternoon sun comes in so either pull the shades down or crack open the windows. The bathroom was plenty big and there was nice water pressure for the shower. We never ran out of hot water. All in all, we found David and Ling's place to be very welcoming and relaxing. It was just what we needed!
