We are East Coast girls...Born and raised in CT, living in Brooklyn, full of Yankee pride. After spending some time in LA/Palm Springs, I was ready for my NY...until we visited Monte Nido. A horse-loving community set deep in the Malibu canyons, it seemed too good to be true. (which it was, because we had to leave the next day)thanks Deb and Phil for the most beautiful stay. xo
