Don

Just a quick note to let you know that my family and I had a brilliant time staying at the "Wall of Glass".

The apartment and its location far exceeded our expectations. Your video (on your web site)was good, but the atmosphere of the unit can only be understood by staying there.

We had been in California for a month -traveling up the coast from LA to San Francisco and across to Yosemite and back to LA. Your place was our last stop before returning home and it was a great way to finish our holiday.

Staying and relaxing at Malibu was the highlight of the trip... while we have great beaches in Queensland - there is nothing quite like your place or Malibu in Australia...

Thanks again - it was great meeting you on the last day.

Cheers

Don,

I had a great time at your amazing beach house. It exceeded all expectations and was absolutely perfect. It was two weeks well spent. I hope to be able to come back next year.

Best Regards,

Our stay at Walls of glass was the highligh of our
honeymoon- and we went on to stay in 5 star
hotels!
The location and the apartment can not be
beaten. The vacation rental Is the only way to go!
Thanks

Homeowner Response:
lauren, i couldn't agree more that vacation rentals are the only way to go. you get much more space, better amenities, accomodations are more personal and you can dine out when you want, rather than every meal. don

We had a wonderful time staying at "Walls of Glass". Everything the other guests comments said about attention to detail, accuracy of the internet video of "Walls of Glass", and graciousness of our host Don was absolutely correct. We too would love to come back again.

Our family loved the place. We had a great time.

The video you made was perfect in describing exactly what your property offers. The ocean view when you swing open the front door could be from a postcard. Not only is the location wonderful, but you thought of every detail -- from beach towels to the wireless internet access at the work station off the kitchen. The three large screen televisions were great too, as my children had many different options in which to be entertained. Having your own private beach right under the house made this a perfect getaway.

Homeowner Response:
thanks fitz for appreciating "walls of glass" as a unique vacation rental and noticing the detail. providing a vacation rental was always my dream so i had a lot of time to think about detail and get it right. don

Dear Don:

Everything was great - the premises are spectacular, Malibu is fantastic and your written introduction to the premises and to the area was very helpful. We are thinking of coming back and if we decide to do so we will be in touch (I know, I know - we need to book early).
  Geoff Hall, Toronto, Ontario

Homeowner Response:
geoff, booking early really is the secret. don

We had a great time at your place!! Our dog, Rocket
acclimated and soon became a "beach" dog. Our
teenage sons loved the location and the privacy.
The "wet sand" beach is a real plus since it keeps
most people away, but still allows you to hang out,
skim board, etc.
The location is perfect...10 min in either direction
and you're at world class restaurants, beaches
(should you ever want to!), etc. Malibu Country Mart
was a fun place to hang as was dining and shopping
in nearby santa monica.
We plan on coming back.....soon we hope. Thanks
for the hospitality...
  Seth and Roz, Scottsdale, AZ

Homeowner Response:
thanks seth, and it was your enthusiasm for "oceanfront dining" that caused me to realize that "oceanfront dining" is clearly distinct from "traditional dining" and that "oceanfront dining" is one of the most cost-effective and unique luxuries that malibu has to offer. don

Don, just wanted to tell you how much we enjoyed our time in Malibu at your place. It was terrific -- better than advertised! Our cat loved the place too. Hoping to book two weeks next summer.

Renting 'Walls of Glass' made my dream celebration a reality. The place was gorgeous and perfect for my needs. The owner, Don, took great care to help me make my 50th birthday party a memorable and outstanding one. My family and friends are still raving about the wonderful time they had there!

Don,
It was spectacular. I am going to try to get my family there. It was truly a relaxing vacation. The beach time was perfect as no one got burned. Thank you so much.

My stay at Walls of Glass was perfect. I truly felt I was in vacation. No hassle everything very clean. I found that the video was very useful because it truly showed the how how it really was.

Homeowner Response:
thanks for recommending the video. if i were deciding on a vacation rental i would defiinitely prefer to look at a video rather than photos or anything else. don

A spectacular view, free dolphin shows. The sounds of the Pacific. We loved our stay! You get the Malibu "experience" and it is very convenient to surfing, Pepperdine, Santa Monica, Zuma. We'll be back.

Homeowner Response:
thanks for mentioning pepperdine tom. i get lots of "pepperdine parents" and the location always seems to suit them well. don
