Barbara and Bruce are extremely sweet and welcoming, and their home is very comfortable. I was pleasantly surprised by the warm reception we received - Barbara had wine and snacks ready for us when we arrived (including vegan snacks for me, which was very thoughtful!). They also prepared a list of great hiking spots for us, which I thought was a nice touch. The bed was super comfortable and we slept great every night. Some other perks were the hot tub, the lovely backyard, and easy parking in the driveway. The location was great as well - the beach is only about 30 minutes away by foot, and it's a quick drive to get anywhere in Santa Monica or Venice. We enjoyed our stay. Thanks again!
