Incredible property … well designed and lots of amenities (e.g., paddle & surf boards, instructors for surfing or yoga, roof top restaurant, etc.). The staff was top notch … polite & professional.
Rooftop bar/ restaurant was exceptional. Room was very clean and well appointed. Reception was hard to find, virtually no closet. A few hangers over the mini bar. But great location and restful. Very nice
A lovely boutique hotel provided beach bag towels daily coffee service. Very quaint walking distance to to Malibu pier and beach. Amazing roof top views with excellent cocktails and dining. Service could be better on the roof top but overall a beautiful property will definitely visit again.
