A great treasure awaits on the top of the mountain 😊 Truly enjoyed the grand hospitality we received from Elaine 😊 she was welcoming and sincere which automatically made my family and I feel welcomed. The views are just as advertised...above the clouds the sunset looks amazing, and quiet! We were fortunate to have a full moon during our stay which looked breathtaking at the high elevation. Walking out to the patio overlooking the beautiful natural mountain area is quite a treat that you definitely deserve to treat yourself...a sight to see for sure. The drive is a winding one, but an all honestly not as bad as I expected to be; the fact the beach is just down the mountain makes it worth it anyway 😊 . Driving at night I wouldn't advise, unless your a mountain-driver-navigate-effortlessly-through-tight-corners-expert then my hats off, otherwise you want the daylight to see everything and be alert. Elaine granted us with breakfast in the morning, a bagel/coffee/toast to get your morning going; she was quite accommodating and helpful on request we asked for as well. Elaine had warm conversations that were enjoyable, yet she allowed privacy that made us feel comfortable in the environment. Cleanliness was up to par with sanitation in communal areas which ensured our safety completely. Overall, I would recommend this room if you need a peaceful gateway, but close enough to enjoy the beach and surrounding settings, great food locally( try Howdy's don't be fooled by the name, tasty to say the least😊), Elaine's residence is quite a jewel in the Malibu treasure😊
