The space was clean, comfortable and easily accessible. Adib + Nadia were very communicative and clearly take pride in their home.
They had to go on a last minute trip and weren't there when we arrived but it actually worked out quite well as we were traveling up the coast and were able to completely take our time in getting there. They kept in touch to see how we were doing throughout the few days we stayed. They were fully attentive and wanted to make sure we were comfortable.
The 2 bedroom was really perfect for our small family of 3, it was a great night's sleep and the sun rose in the direction of the windows in the morning to give a perfect start to the day. The space is utilized and laid out nicely. The linens on the beds are nice, clean and cozy and the bathroom and house itself is clean and tidy. The wifi is decent in the space and they make it super easy to connect to it which is helpful and appreciated.
A few small things worth noting: We are super sensitive to faux fragrances, as a lot of people we know are. When we arrived and opened the door we were hit with a wall of 'plug in' scent. My son is very sensitive to this and I get migraines so I quickly detached it from the plug. It's not a deal breaker for all people but I definitely wanted to let anyone else know that there are triggers there (the one bedroom also had some newer furnishings that had a strong scent) since I feel that is important to travelers who have scent sensitivities or get migraines. You are able to open the windows as needed for ventilation but depending on how sensitive you are, it could be hard on you. There were a lot of signs/notes around the house explaining what to do and not to do, which gives you the constant reminder that you are in someone else’s space and not to get too comfy but I understand that it's their way of controlling the place when people are coming and going all the time.
The location for this airbnb can’t be beat and parking is easy. We took a day trip to Santa Barbara and spent time in Malibu and Calabasas. Driving through Topanga Canyon was amazing.
Overall we would suggest to stay at Adib + Nadia’s- Thank you to both of them!
