KIND WORDS FROM PAST GUESTS:

"Amazing location! Incredible views along with everything you need for your stay, including amazing sunrises, walks on the beach and then end your day with incredible sunsets!" - Angie

“The only thing that could possibly surpass one of the most amazing views I’ve ever seen for a vacation rental, 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.
Jill was such a sweetheart and so helpful!
The neighborhood is lovely to walk around. You have your choice of amazing beaches.
The unit itself has everything you could possibly need. There were 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.
I would definitely return… Don’t hesitate to rent this place, if you’d like, some pampered luxury in the sunny Malibu Hills!” - Ana, New York

Amazing stay!

Loved my stay at this beachside retreat. I needed to get away from the city and have some zen. I enjoyed cooking and sitting out on the deck for sunset. The place is well equipped to cook, BBQ, lounge, and work remotely. I loved taking morning walks down to the beach and up in the hills around the neighborhood. It is very safe and quiet and parking is a breeze with the assigned carport. I will definitely stay again!

Heaven on Earth!

We had the best time at this beautiful beach getaway. The views are out of this world, and the flat itself is really tastefully decorated. It also had everything we needed for a great long stay. We walked to the beach almost every day and watched the sunset from the living room or balcony most evenings. The best restaurants are a short drive away, and so is both Santa Monica and the heart of Malibu. Instacart made grocery shopping a breeze. We can’t wait to come back!

Dream Home

This flat is exactly the Malibu holidayhome I was hoping to find. The view is stunning, both from the living room & the mainbedroom. The flat is in perfect condition - clean, fresh and yet homie. The outdoors spaces are wonderful - I spent a lot of time on the balcony but there’s also a charming garden with fireplace and barbecue. Honestly, Jilian has thought of everything both regarding the flat and the process of renting it. I highly recommend this to anyone.

Perfect beach getaway

Jill's place was great -- I was eager to get out of the "city" and enjoy a relaxing moment near the water. She was great to communicate with, had a gorgeous and super clean place, a helpful instruction manual, incredible amenities, etc. I'd stay here again!
