Violeta and her husband John are the perfect hosts - there if you need anything and discretely absent when you want to be alone. Their home is perfectly situated in the Palisades - a lovely 10 minute walk through local neighborhoods to the village center with its restaurants and Gelson's, a fabulous supermarket. The bed is comfortable and the room spacious. The outdoor area - a small pool surrounded by lots of potted plants - is perfect to sit in to eat or read. I will plan to come back with my husband next time.
