Love this place!
Thank you, Diana, for such a wonderful stay. This is our second time at the Malibu Apartment, and we will stay again. Diana is a superb host. Her communications are quick and helpful. She is really friendly, too! We walked across the street for beachy sunrises and took quick walks to the store for supplies. Having the washer and drying racks made our stay super homey, along with the full-size fridge and dishwasher. Diana keeps the place tidy, and the patio is great for evening wind downs.

Great location
Popamao is a very nice community and this particular area is a great community. It is well designed for pedestrians and a nice place for walking. The street and neighborhood are very quiet. The yard of the apartment faces Papamoa Beach Road which is quite busy during the day but when we were inside the apartment the sound never bothered us. The host is quick to respond but unobtrusive, in fact we never saw her, even though she lives upstairs. The beach is an easy 5 minute walk away, and almost deserted. We really enjoyed our stay here and we highly recommend it.
