This place seriously OVER-DELIVERED (yes, all caps) on every level. If cleanliness is your thing, this place was off the charts. People in hazmat suits daily scrubbing the place down. Everything seemed new. Not a crumb anywhere in rooms. If location is your thing, this place is in the middle of “the strip”. Next to Nobu, near the pier, has its own little sandy beach, the actual beach was accessible and my 10 yr old and 4 yr old played all day in the water (it was a little too rough for any child under 8-10 yrs old IMO) with a little shore break. And, there’s an awesome little grass yard where we threw the football and frisbee. If Check-In and Communication is important, these people are proactive and always on top of providing information and ease. They made check in a remote experience through photos and instructions. If you like Room Features, this place had 2 very clean refrigerators, and nice stove, a pod coffee maker that seemed brand new, beautiful bathtub and shower system, a toilet that must be $5k due to all the special automated features, cozy bed, kitchen utensils, Apple TV’s, flat screens, dishes, etc. also - parking right in front was easy. Also, everyone was respectful of wearing masks.
I’ve only used Airbnb a few times and was seriously skeptical of these types of places but this was a huge shift in my feelings about using Airbnb for future trips. This place was incredibly professional and my family really enjoyed our private, quiet, stay in Malibu.
