PAST REVIEWS:
"The only thing that could possibly surpass one of the most amazing views I’ve ever seen for an Airbnb, was the exemplary hospitality shown by the host. This rental is just gorgeous… Set just a block away from some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. It’s quiet and very stylish… Yet ridiculously close access to Pacific coast highway. The neighborhood is lovely to walk around. You have your choice of amazing beaches. The unit itself has everything you could possibly need, even fluffy bathrooms in the closet. Waking up with the view of the Pacific Ocean right outside your window cannot be beat. The patio is so lovely to enjoy your morning coffee on or watch the stars at night. Don’t hesitate to rent this place if you’d like some pampered luxury in the sunny Malibu Hills!” - Ana, New York
"Jill's Malibu oasis was simply lovely! I travel for work extensively, and needed to be in LA for a month. I have high standards and was careful to pick a place to stay that was quiet so I could focus and recharge. The home was exactly as pictured, with beautiful views, lovely design with attention to detail. It was very clean and comfortable. Additionally, there were plenty of fresh linens, comfortable beds, and a stocked kitchen. I felt right at home. It's in a great location, with plenty of accessibility to great stores for shopping, fantastic restaurants, both the Malibu and Santa Monica Peers, and a close walk to the beach! Jill is awesome, she's very responsive, I will definitely stay here again!" - Jamie, Oregon

SPECIAL NOTES:
Please read the house rules before booking.
We LOVE pets, but you MUST ask before booking, as sometimes guests who are very allergic have booked after you and we need to make sure we provide a safe space for them too. Please tell us the breed, weight, if your pet is house trained, how much it barks, and for how long it will be left alone at a time. Pet fee is per pet.
Since we can typically only rent for 30+ days and we maintain almost 100% occupancy, when booking, please don't leave gaps of less than 30 days before & after your reservation and the start or end of the previous or next reservation.
If you need items for a baby like a Pack n' Play, let us know in advance so we can get those out of storage for you.
For your safety, there is a Ring doorbell camera & a Ring camera on the right side of private balcony pointed downwards towards the balcony and out towards the ocean. They record audio/video when there is motion but can be seen at anytime.
