The location is great in relation to Topanga canyon, many beaches including Santa Monica area, and the Getty villa. We personally loved the Topanga canyon hikes. The drive up to Debs is enjoyable as well. The place was very clean, the bed so comfy and the cookies were such a nice touch and taste amazing!! The beach towels were appreciated too. Deb always got back to us very quickly and was helpful with questions that came up. The view outside was lovely and down by the red chairs you could even hear a babbling brook! Debs place was a much needed rest from the stresses of life listening to music, painting and sleeping in.
