“Fantastic”
The property was perfect very clean with beautiful furnishings and a very comfortable room. The staff member we dealt with was very knowledgeable and had great suggestions on where to visit in Malibu. Also the property is very green with wild flowers. The room was excellent really enjoyed the ambiance and relaxing feel. The bed was great had a super night’s sleep. The bathroom was great with a powerful shower and high end wash gels.

“The perfect Malibu getaway.”
We had a Seaview room and could watch the surfers while the sun went down from our balcony. The rooftop bar and restaurant was only available to guests which means you don’t have to leave if you don’t want to and the food + view was amazing. So many thoughtful touches.

“Great introduction to Malibu but not great value for money. Hi for drink on roof but don't stay.”
Great location and stylish renovation of old motel. Staff were warm and gracious. Views from roof superb.
