Amir is a lovely host and his home is very clean and situated in one of the most beautiful areas in California- close to beaches, incredible hikes, and if you want, nightlife in Malibu. The home was perfect for our needs very comfortable and great heating which surprisingly was needed up in the mountains last week! Lovely outside space to eat and hang out and look at the incredible mountains. Its essentially a studio home, so if you're coming with more than one couple, you will be sleeping in the same room together, though its spacious. The home is not quite as remote as it may seem- there is a big road just above which you don't see but will hear cars pretty constantly on, there is a hotel in the area you will hear their concerts at night and there is something like a mini RV park in the front with a few people coming in and out somewhat regularly. There also seems to be some construction work happening, though no loud work happened while we were there, there's a lot unfinished outside still, and there were visits by real estate people on a couple of occasions, not in the house but to the property. This was not a big deal, but if you're really looking for silence and solitude, I'd say it is close, but not entirely that. Otherwise, a great stay which we enjoyed, and with a couple small caveats, I'd recommend it to others.
