We felt very luck to find this spot on such short notice - we had friends we were planning to visit whose home in Malibu was smoked-damaged and uninhabitable and we needed a home base near familiar ground in LA. This was our refuge - close to favorite (Rose Cafe) and new favorite (Gjusta, Barrique, Chinois on Main) restaurants, an easy walk to the beach, shopping, etc., but still off the main road, with a sense of seclusion and calm. It is lovingly decorate and appointed, with a small garden space for reading outside. We really lacked for nothing. And Craig proved a friendly, thorough, and efficient host.
