I generally don't write reviews, but our stay in Malibu with Steve + Lee was truly an exceptional experience. The property and views are truly unique, and our family was able to "escape" together in a peaceful-yet-stunning environment. The direct access to hiking trails was a huge asset, as was the ideal pool/hot tub setup for our kids. Especially noteworthy was the almost pure silence you could experience at night on the deck--you can watch the ocean and the planes landing at LAX while having zero audible distraction. Hosts were extremely helpful, even arranging a Christmas Tree for our stay during the holiday week. If you are tired with trips to crowded and homogenized "luxury" hotels, this home will restore your appreciation for paying for quality in your vacation lodging.
