This was my first Airbnb experience and I doubt very seriously any future Airbnb experiences will even come close to this one. The pictures don't do justice to seeing the guest house in person. From the quality of furnishings, the peaceful neighborhood and the added touches Alisa offers to her guests are second to none. She is a first-class host and an exceptionally nice person.

Alisa greeted me the moment we arrived and showed me the guest house. Not only was the guest house large and extremely clean, Alisa also stocked the fridge and kitchen with a few items as well as the bathroom (various toiletries from soaps, shampoo, lotions....you name it, she had it).

The property is very secure as the front gate is locked and requires a code to enter. I often kept the exterior doors open with the fans running to enjoy the outdoor temps. From the remote controlled sky lights to the beautifully designed full kitchen, it's truly luxury accommodations at their best.

The location is excellent.....within a 10 minutes drive to Santa Monica and about 25 minutes to Malibu. It's a fairly short walk (or run) to the beach and very close to shopping.

The Palisades Guest House is not your typical Airbnb. If you're looking for beautiful accommodations, peace and quiet, great location and an excellent host, do yourself a favor and book this space. On a scale from 1 to 10, it's easily a 15.
