Alice's place really is "glorious." It is beautiful, functional, and comfortable, and we (2 adults and 2 teenage girls) had a fabulous time when we stayed at her place for 8 days. We had a lovely home base from which to explore LA, San Diego and Santa Barbara. In the mornings, we had coffee and exercised in her tiled outdoor space, and in the evenings we played card games in her gorgeous dining room. The location is great and the hosts were responsive when we had questions. Thank you, Alice and family!
