Run Down, Rude Host, Nice Location
If you are a family looking for a short term place to crash while exploring Malibu - and don’t have any questions or need anything from the host, then this is a fine, basic option. If you are looking for a high-end, well maintained, clean house and a truly hospitable host, steer clear! I made the mistake of thinking this home would be a great escape for a long term stay in LA for remote work and relaxation. It turned out to be just the opposite and a huge disappointment. House was filthy when I arrived (host did not leave one day for cleaning as listing states and admitted that she didn’t hire a cleaning service after her last guest left). Host reluctantly sent cleaner the next day and was defensive and difficult when I asked her to fix clogged primary bedroom sink, broken furniture, and provide basic necessities like trash cans and laundry hamper. Also, the house is run down with old carpet, stained walls, broken screens, peeling paint, missing or burnt out lightbulbs, non working tv, etc. But the worst part came when host demanded that I share the washer dryer with one of her other tenants (??!). Gross. The listing includes false information about appliances and condition of house, so beware. Lastly, I’m sure Sarah will leave a nasty reply to this review - since that’s the kind of “host” she is.

Fantastic
Sarah was an amazing host! Our time there was over the holidays, and she went the extra mile to have a Christmas tree and poinsettia set up. Sarah even sent us a lovely welcome note. She communicated with us throughout our stay, even to let us know when the gardener was coming. This home is situated in a beautiful walkable neighborhood with mountain views and the ocean is one mile down the hill. It was perfect for the four of us, parents with two adult kids. It is spacious and bright. The skylights made the mostly overcast and rainy days bearable. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need and more. Because the house is situated in the hills, phone service can be spotty depending on what type of phone carrier you have. One thing to note is the washer and dryer is located in the garage, not a laundry room. Thank you Sarah for a wonderful stay. We enjoyed our time at your gorgeous home. We would highly recommend this home.

Perfect for us and loved every minute of being there!!!
This house was perfect for us and loved every minute of being there! The location is perfect, only a one and a half minute drive to the beach. Mountains meet ocean is the perfect way to describe it. Breathtaking ocean views on the drive down. Perfectly situation with easy access between Malibu, Pacific Palisades and Santa Monica. We loved the house, it felt like home the minute we walked in and I didn’t want to leave as we were there for 2.5 weeks. Spacious and open, bright with natural light, comfortable beds, large walk-in closet, beautifully decorated, zen, quiet, with mountain views from the shower and a lemon tree out front. Our 1 year old son learned how to say lemons from the first hand experience of walking outside and picking one. Sarah is an incredible host. She knew we were coming in late and had the pack-n-play all set up for us and there were a few toys already there for us to play with! The communication was fast, clear and easy. We will definitely be back, in fact, this is the only home I want to stay at in the future in LA! Thank you Sarah!

Beautiful Home, Great Stay
Beautiful open plan home with relaxing outdoor area. We are a family of 6 with adult children and it was perfect for our 4-day visit with extended family in Malibu. Even though there are only 2 bathrooms it was plenty for our crew. There are three bedrooms, but instead of sharing a room, our 2 younger sons (21 and 23) drew straws and one slept very comfortably on the large white couch - with the extra pillows and a cozy comforter we found in the master bedroom closet, he was in good shape. We only cooked breakfasts at the house, but the kitchen is open and well-stocked, and the table seats 6. We enjoyed morning coffee and evening cocktails and conversation outside - coming from the Southeast (Atlanta), the mild and breezy Malibu weather was heaven! Very quiet, very private, and very little noise from neighboring homes. There is a washer and dryer in the garage, although we didn't use them, and there is an ironing board and iron in one of the bedroom closets (took us a while to find it). It was a wonderful oasis to return to each evening. Thank you, Sarah, for sharing your home with us!

Gorgeous area!
The neighborhood is incredibly fancy, safe, and beautiful. We loved making lemonade from the lemon trees out front--so California! It's also a close drive (though I wouldn't say walkable–a mile straight uphill on the way home) to the beach and an easy ride to restaurants in Santa Monica or Malibu. Our only downside was being a little weirded out that someone (not sure if host or another guest) was clearly staying at the guest house that's attached to this house. Even though the spaces are separate, it's something that we thought should be communicated in advance if you don't also rent the guest house. Cute backyard and right near a hiking trail.

Malibu Vacation
We stayed at this property for 8 days and it was really really nice. We were 3 couples (6 adults) and we each had a bedroom to sleep. We shared one bathroom with 2 couples which was OK but not great (lesson learned and this does not reflect on the house or host). The master bedroom & bathroom were excellent. The most fabulous aspect of this property was its location; easy to get to and adequate parking for two vehicles in the drive way. The drive down the steep sloped roads every morning, with a full view of the Pacific Ocean, was breathtakingly beautiful. The proximity to a nice grocery store (Vons), the awesome beaches with cool restaurants, and the Getty Villa Estate was very convenient, and you could literally walk down to the beach if you are in good physical shape (not recommended for the elderly). Overall the house was in good shape, but it's not large enough for 6 adults with regard to the bedrooms and the outside patio. Sarah was a very gracious host and provided very good and plentyful information on the area with regard to shopping and eating. She was in regular contact with us to answer any questions we had. I strongly recommend this place but only for 2-4 adults with kids. Sarah Thank you again for letting us stay at your place.

Our 18 year old son moved to LA in September so we flew from Iowa to be together for the holiday. I needed 4 beds in preferably different bedrooms. When I contacted Silver, she noted there was a guest house available too and that was perfect for my brother-in-law! She also decorated this amazing house for Christmas.
