About this property
Malibu Escape • Views, Near Beach, The Ranch Malibu | The Malibu Ranch Retreat
Welcome to The Malibu Ranch Retreat, a serene escape tucked into the rolling Malibu Mountains, where wide-open space, ocean air, and relaxed luxury come together for an unmistakably Malibu stay. Set on a spacious plot of land that feels like your own private valley, this ranch-style home blends laid-back California charm with elevated design, surrounded by sweeping natural beauty and peaceful views that make it easy to slow down and settle in. Located just down the road from The Ranch Malibu, considered one of the country’s leading luxury wellness retreats, you’ll enjoy a setting that feels restorative from the moment you arrive.
Inside, clean contemporary decor creates a bright, calming atmosphere across the home’s four bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. The living room invites connection with multiple plush couches arranged for conversation, movie nights, or simply unwinding after a day exploring the coast. The fully equipped kitchen is stocked with all the essentials, making everything from casual breakfasts to sunset dinners effortless.
Step outside and Malibu truly shines. The patio is designed for long, golden afternoons and cozy evenings, featuring a luxe al fresco dining setup perfect for meals under sunny skies. A basketball hoop on the driveway adds a playful touch for guests of all ages, while the expansive grounds create a sense of privacy that feels rare this close to the ocean.
Though you’ll feel worlds away in the hills, the coast is within easy reach—about 12 minutes to County Line Beach and the Pacific Coast Highway, and 20 minutes to the wide sandy beaches of Zuma Beach. Spend your days surfing, sunbathing, hiking coastal trails, or exploring Malibu’s renowned wineries, cafés, and oceanfront restaurants before retreating back to your peaceful hillside haven.
With convenient parking, an in-home washer and dryer, and a location that also makes travel simple—approximately 1 hour 10 minutes to LAX, with private charter airports such as Santa Monica, Camarillo, and Van Nuys all within about an hour’s drive—The Malibu Ranch Retreat offers the perfect balance of seclusion and seaside adventure, a place where mornings start with fresh coastal air and evenings end beside the fire under star-filled skies.

With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more.
