About the host

Hosted by Shawn Dougherty

Host profile image
Being a film producer gives me the chance to tell stories, but hosting allows me to create real-life experiences for our guests. Sharing our family compound and connecting with people from around the world is something I truly enjoy. Whether it's a peaceful retreat or an adventurous getaway, I love being part of our guests' stories.

Why they chose this property

We chose Monite Nido because it's the perfect blend of peaceful nature and convenience. Nestled between Malibu and Calabasas, it offers stunning views and a sense of serenity, while still being close to everything. I love that our guests can enjoy the beauty of the mountains and the proximity to the best that Southern California has to offer."

What makes this property unique

Our property is unique because it offers a true blend of luxury and nature. Set on 5 acres surrounded by untouched parkland, with two pools and panoramic mountain views, The Malibu Retreat provides a peaceful sanctuary just minutes from Malibu and Calabasas. The versatility of our space, with two main houses, two apartments, and a guest house, allows us to host everything from intimate getaways to large group gatherings. What really sets us apart, though, is the personal touch of our family-run operation, creating an experience that feels like a home away from home.
