    Our Long Beach destination
    Brenda C.

    Johnathon drove us to the Carnival Cruise line. He was absolutely amazing!!!! Very accommodating and attentive. We had access to our own music selection during ride. He arrived on time to pick us up and got us to our destination without any problems even though traffic was horrible. We were looking forward to see him again on pick up day from the cruise line only to be pleasantly surprised with the excellent service provided by Kris. Kris is actually the owner and provided exceptional service!!!!! I would recommend this service to anyone!!

Since I don't mind walking,I was able to find street parking. But avoid going further up Sherman way; by some cul de sac residential area; they have signs saying not to park on the street--on the street with a sign specifically telling you to respect the neighbors. Also poor internet service up here, so I'm not a fan. I arrived without a reservation and it was fine. They offer the outdoor patio and even noticed a private event taking place. They also have indoor seating with tables and sofas. I spent the majority of my afternoon inside as I was avoiding the heat. Just depends what type of wine you select; but Pricey here for a flight of red wine four types; $59 but my fault for going with all reds! They are top tier. Flight wine Saddlerock: Syrah, Cab, KOM, and Res Cab. Syrah was the on the dry side (as it is known to be) and not as sweet. Still really good. The KOB was a combination and it was delicious. That was my fav out of the batch. I also bought water for $5 but it's a big bottle of sparkling water; Not tap. My total here was $64 paid with my card and closed my tab. For the following rounds, I paid cash: I had two rounds of IPA beer: both were really good in my opinion. "Pliny the elder" by Russian river IPA and "food fight" by common space. Glass was $10-11each 16oz Lastly, I ordered a charcuterie cheese and crackers which was $28 the board itself was very cute and decorated nicely. Overall, this place can be pricey but I was there to hang out, explore their menu and drink so it worked out for me in the end.

I loved that…read morethey didn't require any sort of deposit or fee to book the reservation and I particularly LOVED that parking here is free. I found that a lot of the other wineries in Malibu charged to book the reservation and most charged $20-25 for parking, so the free parking alone made me jump to book this place. I didn't want all of my friends to have to drive such a long way AND pay for parking! The space is different than what the old Rosenthal winery used to be, but it's actually more intimate and nicer! Apparently this is where they used to host VIPs before the fire, so it feels like a more exclusive space. The entrance feels quite sudden and easy to miss while driving, but you enter a small driveway after confirming the reservation name with the guard, and then drive along a beautiful road until you hit the entrance. Such a beautiful drive in! There were tables set up for everyone and it's not overly crowded which is nice. They even had live music (they were great!). They had a pretty decent wine list, whites, reds, roses, sweet, bubbly, but no non-alcoholic wines for those curious. They don't serve any food which feels like a bummer at first, but they do allow you to bring any and all food and non-alcoholic beverages you want. So it's essentially like a picnic but at a nice winery. We had plenty of snacks and bites so we were just fine, and they were ok with my bottle of non-alcoholic bubbly wine. We had a great time here! Perfect for celebrations! They still have their fun big blue wooden chair too which is perfect for pics.

Looks like this was…read morehorse stable property at one time, but now they have covered tables outside the stables and scattered throughout the oak tree covered property. Reservations are recommended, but not 100% necessary. Live music on weekends (check their website). No food is sold, so you're welcome to bring your own snacks/picnics. NOTE: 20% gratuity added to all parties of 6 of more. WINE: Carly poured for us and the service was excellent. However, on the day we visited, they were super busy and understaffed, so they were only offering wines by-the-glass and bottles, no tasting flights. Lots of varietals to choose from. We felt that the wines were well-made and "okay", but others really enjoyed them. As I always say, wine tasting is very subjective to an individual's palate, so you should give them a try for yourselves. We ordered glasses of their NV Surfrider Sparkling Moscato ($18), a 2020 RME Chardonnay ($18), a 2020 Petite Verdot ($20), and a 2018 Block M Cabernet Sauvignon ($25). I felt that the prices for the glasses were a little on the high side, but the pours were generous. We ended up purchasing a bottle of their 2020 G Petit Verdot ($53) to take home. Overall, we enjoyed the live music from Ocean Park Sound System (a 70's funk band) and some nice estate and sourced fruit wines. Would recommend that you check them out if you're looking for a pleasant wine experience.

The Cafe had a special event menu for the show. The Hearts of Palm Ceviche with Yuca was delicious. We also had a Citrus Grilled Flank Steak wrap, and the Chorizo Molotes with Tomatillo Avocado Sauce (vegan). I enjoyed a special cocktail for the event, El Cosmico, which was Agave Wine, Pineapple Juice, Fresh Orange Juice, Mint, Cucumber, Tajin Rim (also Available without alcohol), and a nice cold beer. My hunny had some Rose'. We finished off with some fresh Mexican Wedding cookies! Again, this was a special event menu for the performance, however, you can't go wrong with the Villa Salad with chicken and the lemon yogurt dressing which is on the regular daily menu and is my go to meal at the Villa.

    The Getty Villa is one of the two Getty Museums in Los Angeles County and this location is the…read moreoriginal Getty Museum. The museum started as a small museum gallery in 1954. Later the museum went through new construction with an architectural design inspired by the Villa of the Papyri at Herculaneum and opened to the public in 1974. The Getty Villa moved a portion of its collection to the Getty Center when the center opened in 1997 and the villa focused only on Greek, Roman, and Etruscan art thereafter. The villa underwent a major renovation from 1997 to 2006 and eventually reopened to the public in 2006 as what you see now. The villa was shut down for 6 months to clean up the aftermath of the Palisades Fire in January 2025. [Admission]: Free admission, but visitors are required to purchase tickets online, pick time slots on the website, and show their online tickets upon driving into the villa. [Parking]: Parking is $25 per car or motorcycle and $15 after 3 PM. For evening events, parking is $10 after 6 PM. [What to see - outdoor]: The Outer Peristyle is the main attraction that everyone comes to see with a 220-foot-long reflecting pool. There is also the Herb Garden, the East Garden, and the Inner Peristyle with a small reflecting pool and laurel trees. [What to see - indoor]: The art collection is only two floors and it is all in one building. Greek Art / Etruscan Art are located on the 1st floor and Roman Art is located on the 2nd floor. Some of the highlights include The Lansdowne Hercules (Gallery 108), Victorious Athlete / Youth (Gallery 111), Caeretan Hydria (not currently on display), Mummy Portrait of Isidora (Gallery 210), Sarcophagus with Scenes from the Life of Achilles (Gallery 213), etc. [Guided tour]: The villa offers various free guided tours and the staff recommended that visitors arrive 15 minutes before the tour time. All tours start right across from the gift shop and they are first come first served (capped at 20 people for our tours). The staff gave us one portable Bluetooth audio device per person so everyone was able to hear the guide clearly even from a distance. Our party did the "Exploring the Villa's Architecture & Gardens Tour" at 11:15 AM and the "Art & Site Tour" at 1:30 PM. Unfortunately, I didn't realize there was some overlap between the two tours and our party ended up seeing the Herb Garden twice during our visit. [Cafe]: Can't exactly say I was impressed with the selection. Our party got chickpea hummus & pita for $11.60 and it tasted alright. [Garden Tea Service]: Reservations required - Thursday and Saturday only. Inquire at the information desk. Visitors can book a reservation on OpenTable and the price is $66.95 per person (not including sales tax and an 18% service charge). [Conclusion]: In the end, our party stayed for approximately 5 hours. Overall the Getty Villa is not as good as the Getty Center due to (1) its smaller footprint, (2) its focus only on Greek, Roman, and Etruscan art which I am not as interested in, and (3) too much redundancy in the guided tours. This is a great museum to visit for any first time visitors, but it is hard to see myself revisiting the villa unless there are new exhibits in the future that fit my interests. P.S. - There is a small pamphlet with a self-guided tour highlighting scenes from the Odyssey through various artworks.

When you first enter the spa building, you are welcomed by a kind receptionist who will lead you on a tour. There is complimentary fruit, teas, water, and snacks at the front. There are also complimentary lockers and fully stocked restrooms (towels, shampoos, hair brush, razors, and lotion) both inside the and outside. Inside there is a beautifully maintained cedar wood dry sauna and a relaxation room with heat mats, blankets, and Himalayan sea salt wall. Outside there is a pool, hot tub, cold plunge tubs, and loungers, which were clean and well-maintained. Weekday mornings are the best--very little people, so you basically have the space to yourself. Past 4pm, there will be lots of families with kids splashing around. There is pool service with food and cocktails--nothing special, but makes the experience feel extra luxurious and relaxing. The grounds and decor are so special, so make sure to walk around to check out the lake and outdoor event venues. Pro tip: The pool and sauna are a little difficult to find if you've never been there before, but there is a designated parking lot past the general entrance to the road on the left.

I'm torn respecting Calamigos--my church has met there for over a year and it is truly a beautiful property. We had the wedding of our dreams there, and everything on the events side was as perfect as we could ask for. But the morning after our wedding, housekeeping cleaned $300 cash, a bookmark, and the sixpence from my shoe out of my husband's wedding suit before throwing it and my wedding dress in a shopping bag on the porch. Management did comp our stay and hosted us for an extra night, which we're grateful for, but we did feel at times that we weren't as much of a priority because we had an older vehicle and didn't look wealthy. I can't recommend Calamigos Events highly enough--if you want an amazing wedding, truly, look no further. But I wish the hotel was as incredible as the events side. As far as we know, the people who stole from us weren't identified. Hopefully they aren't still working here, but I would advise guests to be careful of their things. I'm hopeful that what happened to us won't happen to other newlyweds, and I truly wish things went different with our stays. Thank you, Mr. Jacobs, for your kind words--we truly do appreciate the gestures your team made and are grateful to have had such a beautiful wedding.
