Casa Jondy is something very special. This was our first visit to Topanga and we fell in love with the area, and our sanctuary at Joni's plus her warm hospitality were a big part of this. The guest house itself has everything you need - a fully kitted out kitchen, one of the comfiest beds we've ever slept in, more space than our pokey flat in London (!), premium bathroom and lots of nice little touches on arrivals like fresh flowers and breakfast supplies. Add the peace and tranquility of where the house is located and the pace of Topanga life (hiking to Big Rock for 360 views of LA, strolling Malibu beaches, dinner from Canyon Gourmet) and we left after our 3-night stay with some true So-Cal zen. Personal fave - sitting on the swing outside the house every morning soaking up the silence and smiling at how good life can be.
