We spent one night in Paula's home. We knew the area, and knew what we were getting. The Palisades is an upscale, quiet, beautiful neighborhood - with easy access to hiking and the beach. There are shops that are a short walk. We walked to Starbucks and also charged our EV in the underground garage at "Palisades Village" shopping center. Paula is a wonderful host. She was really sweet, and offered suggestions for hidden hiking trails, and even stocked the fridge with a couple vegan items (including oat milk) especially for us. She was always available, and responsive when we texted about check-in, check-out, etc.
