This home is in a great location, about 10 minutes from Topanga Beach and 20 minutes from downtown Malibu. As per the pictures, there are plenty of seating areas outdoors to sit and enjoy your coffee or afternoon libation and listen to nature. My brother said he had the best night's sleep he's had in ages with the comfortable bed, pillows, linens, and fresh breezes blowing through the windows! Fully stocked kitchen, comfortable living area, nice towels and toiletries. We hiked the back of the property and had fun playing with the neighbor's dogs too! Great communication with Lynne and very responsive. There is a small grocery store nearby if needing any last minute supplies. Know that you park at an area below the home and must climb about 20 steps to get to the front door. We were happy to meet Lynne the morning of our departure and told her we would come back any time. I highly recommend this property for stays in the Malibu / Topanga Canyon area.
