If you are looking for a sunny clean nook in the Malibu area, this is it. As Donna describes, it is a short stroll to the beach, which was not very crowded at all during our trip. The community is QUIET and clean. The studio is sunny and the all-white interior is uplifting and bright! Parking was not a problem at all for us. It was super convenient to have beach necessities such as towels and chairs included since we flew in from the east coast.
We ate at three of Donna's suggested restaurants and loved them all. There are plenty of wonderful hikes close by and we thoroughly enjoyed hiking to the MASH site in Malibu Creek State Park. We drove to Ojai and loved the syrahs from Ojai Vineyard Tasting Room and the pies from Ojai Pizza Company.
Donna is a phenomenal communicator and host and is so so approachable and accessible. Would happily stay here again if we end up doing another Malibu trip!
