Mary is the perfect hostess. Warm and welcoming, making sure we had everything we needed. The apartment is beautifully decorated, much nicer than the pictures show. The floors and shower are travertine marble - gorgeous! We were also grateful for the quiet, peaceful location. It's easy to drive down the canyon and enjoy the sights and tastes of Malibu, but what a relief to come back "home" to a peaceful, quiet retreat.
