Naomi and Effi's home was a perfect getaway in the city. It had an exceptionally warm, relaxing, and calming atmosphere from the furnishings inside (interesting art!) to the lighted (and heated) pool, gurgling water, and fire pit outside. The backyard is lovely and has 4 distinct seating areas (around the fire pit, the lounge chairs, the beautiful, large wood table, and the smaller table - plus a hammock). We were outside a good portion of the visit. The kitchen was very well equipped to the point that we had 99% of what we needed to make an elaborate Thanksgiving meal. There were multiple TV's, as well as a good sound system. They have several coffee maker options (Nespresso, drip, and French press). The house is well stocked in terms of dishwasher soap, paper towels, pool towels, etc. Effi was very responsive both in setting up the reservation and before and during our stay. Though we felt as if we were in a secluded area, we were just 10 minutes from Beverly Hills, and close to UCLA and Brentwood. I'd recommend this home to anyone and would happily return again.
