Staff was awesome. Facility was clean and maintained. Atmosphere was perfect. There were a few things that could use a bit of TLC, but I’m not complaining. The good definitely outweighed any negatives. My only complaint would be about the pool deck. It was a bit slick. I will stay here again.

I believe this our 4th visit to the Malibu Beach Resort. It’s a terrific vintage motel (2 stories, L shaped, with a pool in the courtyard). Rooms are clean and basic, but have all that you need for a beach vacation. We stayed in a newly renovated apartment and it was awesome. The location is perfect, across the street from the beach. And within walking distance to restaurants and bars. The service is amazing. They help with everything, and have coffee for you in the AM. Deb and her team are great! Highly recommend!

It was just okay

The stay was fine, I did have issues with how I had to make the reservation. I couldn't just call the hotel and make the reservation, I had to go through Hotel.com which charges me for that. Then I was charged for however many days I stayed, plus fees, and extras. Which made the stay way more expensive than I originally thought it was going to cost. I don't think anything was explained when I was just trying to find a place to sleep. I wasn't there to hang out, just sleep. I was told I would be able to get coffee in the office every day, which was not true. It was open the first 2 days, but was not open after that at all. No one to just ask questions or help elevate any issues. Had to ask for 2 wash clothes because they kept just leaving 1 and there were 2 people in the room. I wouldn't say that I would never stay there again, but I will look for somewhere else to stay the next time I go down. If there were just more communication, I think it would relieve some stress I was feeling during my stay. The pool area was nice.

good stay!

Clean, helpful host, not quite on beach as advertised on hotels.com (and charged a resort fee) (it's across street), but good value for what we needed it for. There was also an additional service fee when we checked in that wasn't labeled on hotels.com (as all fees were meant to be included) but it wasn't much just good to know.

Great Old Florida Motel! It's not new or fancy but the accommodations are perfect for a relaxing weekend away. The beach is right across the street, the pool is clean and inviting. Staff was accommodating and kind. We will be back!

If you're looking for a 4 star hotel this is not the place for you. If you're looking for a quaint, clean, quiet motel in a great location, across the street from the ocean this IS the place for you. Great customer service, and very nice pool. The rooms are nicely decorated and very comfortable. Rooms have a kitchenette too. The motel needs some updating. They are working on that. I will be back for sure and I do recommend you give it a try.
