Malibu Beach View Sunset Home

Retreat to a Hallowed Stretch of the Pacific Coast

A bright blue sign on the iconic ribbon of road known as the Pacific Coast Highway reads: “Entering Malibu: 27 miles of scenic coastline.” Pass it and you've arrived at the wonderland of internationally-known surfing, hiking and sunsets. Malibu, defined as a way of life almost as often as a coastal California town, is a heart skip of a place. 

To take full advantage of its breathtaking scenery, visitors often go big on lodging. So when we found out about this vacation rental in Malibu, we nearly jumped in our imaginary convertible and headed for the private, quiet beach community where this home is tucked away.

Originally built in the 1960s, the sunlight-filled sanctuary lays out a tasteful tableau of coastal hues and modern design. Situated in a very private and quiet neighborhood, it is one of the finest new rental properties in this beach community. It has four bedrooms and two bathrooms, and can accommodate up to 10 people. It is 3,000sqft in size, with a 1,000sqft bonus space. Each room has access to the extra-large wraparound deck, with spectacular views of the ocean (cocktail in hand, at sunset, is a particular joy to be had).

Additional features

Internet, TV, Heating, Cable TV, Kitchen, Hot tub, Dryer, Washer, Free Parking on Premises, Indoor Fireplace, Family/Kid-Friendly, Pets Allowed, Smoke Detector, Carbon Monoxide Detector, Fire Extinguisher, First Aid Kit

Around

Located in West Malibu, this home is close to Point Mugu State Park and a quick walk to the famous Neptune’s Net restaurant. The new Trancas shopping center – charming, barn-like design with luxury and boutique retail and dining – is a short drive away, as is Yerba Buena beach, a lesser-known surfer’s hideaway.

Zoom out and explore this world famous stretch of coastline, one of the most beautiful drives in the state (and arguably, the world). Dotted with magnificent homes, and state beaches including nearby Pt. Mugu, Leo Carillo and El Matador, it’s a short drive into the exclusive Malibu colony, and further to Santa Monica, Los Angeles and beyond for some of the finest restaurants, shopping and city life. 

Adjacent to the Santa Monica mountain range, there are miles of unspoiled wilderness for hiking, horseback riding, biking and recreation with some of the best surf breaks and water sports – yachting, boating, kayaking, kite surfing, fishing, scuba diving, snorkeling – at your doorstep.
