This is the second time that my husband and I have stayed with Patricia, and our experience was just as magical as our first stay! Patricia, being the incredibly thoughtful host that she is, welcomed us with a warm hug and put out two bowls of beautiful fresh fruit and nuts (apples, bananas, berries, and almonds) for us in the guest house. I believe that she ordinarily provides freshly baked cookies to her guests, but she remembered that my husband and I do not eat sugar and love fresh fruit! Patricia and her husband are the nicest people! The guest house was as lovely and clean as ever, and we enjoyed walking down to the gated beach every day of our stay. If we can, we plan to make an annual "pilgrimage" to Patricia's Malibu guest house. It is such a special place!
