About this property

Malibu Mountain Retreat: Hike,Bike,Beach Paradise!

This beautiful, spacious guest suite was built as if we were going to live there and can sleep 4-6 people. Includes all new kitchen, bathroom, appliances, king size bed, special "screening"/family room and kitchen/dining room. Set in the incredible nature of the Malibu Bowl, your suite has modern amenities, everything you need for the beach, and immediate access to amazing Hiking, Biking and Beach... And you have your own outdoor patio with gas fire pit, so you can enjoy evenings outdoors too.
The space.

The guest suite is on the lower level of the house, around 1000 Square feet.
There are three big rooms plus walk-in closet and bathroom:

Kitchen/Dining/Hangout - this leads out to the patio and garden area. This is a big room (very high ceilings) completely decked out with everything you need for simple to fancy meals and having a nice area where people can hang out while you cook (or order in :-). Appliances include Gas Stove & Oven, Range Hood, Washer/Dryer, Refrigerator, everything you need to prepare/cook/eat/clean and a massive versatile kitchen sink. We provide coffe pods.Almond Milk, Oatmilk, Honey, Oatmeal, Olive Oil, Filtered Water, Wineglasses and even a bottle of wine for your trip.

Family Room features a big sofa with space for 5, (more on the floor) has. a book case with interesting reading, games for kids (and adults) and its own guest suite TV with streaming everything.

Bedroom is huge with space for a king size bed and a big sofa bed that can be either a queen or 2 twins depending on whats guests need. A night stand and large dresser completes the vibe and offers storage space. Theres another large flatscreen TV in the bedroom and a small desk/workspace thats great for a computer.

Closet - Off the bedroom is a huge walk-in closet with hangers, drawers, extra linens (sheets, pillows and comforters), beach towels, beach chairs, boogie boards, cooler. All you need is food, Ice and the beach! Seriously this is a big walk in closet!

Bathroom - Beautiful new, modern, porcelain tile, and modern everything gives you a beautiful bathroom. We provide beautiful, locally sourced bathroom products by Griffin Remedy. While not technically organic, the owner of the company was an ex employee at the Whole Body shop, and designed this product to be simple, effective, and even biodegradeable (even though its no longer listed as such).

Patio - A beautiful, simple outdoor area for end of day gatherings or meals outside. Gas firepit for heat in the cool of evening and gas barbecue make this feel a little bit like a ski chalet (Minus the snow).

Basically this guest suite is supposed to feel like home away from home. We hope you enjoy!

Quiet clean hideaway

We really enjoyed our stay and would happily return/recommend. Highlights: Super clean, great kitchen, great shower… but what we appreciated most was all the beach gear. It really made our trips to the beaches a whole lot better.

Weekend Getaway

This place is nested away up in the hills of Malibu. A quick drive put us right onto PCH were all the Malibu action is. The location itself is very spacious with a nice kitchen, dining room, living room, bathroom, and large bedroom. Communication with Chris and Scully was easy, and we felt very welcomed. Overall, it was a very nice stay.

Sweetest Spot!

We needed a quiet place to land while attending a family funeral and this spot did not disappoint. Chris and Scully were as welcoming and sweet as can be; even offered us a bottle of wine while we were unloading the car. We will definitely visit them again when we venture back to Malibu.

Beautiful, modern unit beneath house occupied by the hosts. Better furnished than in the photos. Host was responsive and allowed us to keep our little dog in a crate during dinner reservations which is not allowed (if I’d read that, I would’ve booked elsewhere). Only drawbacks was a very firm mattress, hearing the owners dogs running overhead every morning and the hot tub could have been cleaner. We were allowed full run of the beautiful backyard with Mountain View’s, however, the yard lights did not come on a couple of nights.

Lovely retreat with gracious hosts

What an absolute pleasure! We purposefully booked a "retreat" as a place to rest between stressful family visits on a holiday weekend, and we could not have picked a better spot. Lovely mountain hikes just out the door to overlooks. Quick drive to restaurants, shops, and the beach. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated without feeling stuffy. The hosts were absolutely lovely. They provided great tips about what to see and do in the area, and were very responsive to questions. My family enjoyed a lovely meal on the back patio with a great view of the canyon and warmed ourselves at the fire pit. We would definitely book here again. <3

Amazing stay in the Malibu Mountains

I highly recommend booking this cozy retreat on your visit to Malibu. Chris and Scully are fabulous host and make the atmosphere inviting, comfortable and relaxing. The living accommodations are by far the best. The space is very large and spacious overall. The bedroom is quite larfw with separate area to relax on the couch and desk space to work. There is a beautiful walk in closet with plenty of room for your luggage and clothing without impending the bedroom living area. Tastefully decorated and upgraded kitchen and bath make this an all around 5star experience. Please do take a chance to enjoy tge private outdoor space available as a guest, you're in a for a wonderful surprise.
