Planned a low key girls' getaway for my good friend and me and Melissa's place was THE perfect place to be! Our goal was to disconnect and enjoy a relaxing and low key weekend away from the hustle and bustle. Space was cozy, charming, and incredibly relaxing. It was amazing to sit out on the porch and catch up with my friend while watching the sunset and drinking wine. Melissa thought of everything and her place is well-stocked! Her place has a TON of natural lighting and it felt amazing to open the windows and enjoy the Malibu breeze.
Kitchen is well-stocked with wine glasses, mugs, pots, and pans (we were able to make pancakes), there are full-length mirrors in both bathrooms, quality portable heaters because it does get chilly at night, comfy blankets, soft & thick towels, hand soap, shampoo, blow dryer, board games, etc.
Melissa greeted us upon check-in and she is an absolute gem - kind, low key, but accessible when and if you need her.
NOTE: This is in West Malibu, so it's farther away from the main shopping center. We did not have a car so we planned ahead by bringing a ton of snacks, ready-made food, pancake mix, oatmeal mixes, etc. We tried to schedule an UBER ride but the driver canceled on us at the last minute because we were "too far away" :(. It didn't ruin our plans whatsoever, we decided to go to the beach instead.
So I recommend getting a car OR plan ahead and bring food if you prefer to stay in and fully enjoy the space! Overall, we ABSOLUTELY enjoyed our stay and will certainly make plans to return. Melissa is a 5-star host and I highly recommend staying here!
