This place is just as advertised. The view as soon as you walk in was breathtaking. The furniture is comfortable, and the appliances were surprisingly modern and wellfunctioning. We utilized the beach chairs and boogie boards on the beach. Excellent stay and would recommend. Check in was easy, instructions were clear and the location was convenient to both Malibu beaches and nearby Santa Monica

Had a great stay!

I had a wonderful stay at the Malibu beach condo. The location was fantastic, with easy access to restaurants, and the soothing sound of waves crashing nearby was a real highlight. The only minor drawback was the occasional noise from Pacific Coast Highway 1 (PCH) traffic, but it wouldn't deter me from staying there again.
