If you want an escape in the Malibu mountains this spot is for you! Its about a 12 minute drive to the beach and any local restaurants and 25 minutes to the nearest suburban city. The scenery is very peaceful and tranquil although beware that their is a rental property directly above you. If someone is staying there, you will here footsteps, talking, and music really easily. If you want a romantic getaway, I do recommend this place, but only if the upstairs is not rented out at the same time.
