About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Private 1 Acre Resort, 1+Den with pool in Malibu Canyon minutes from the beach.

Spacious 1 bedroom and den chateau with sofa bed has full kitchen and washer/drier. Situated on more than 1 acre in Malibu Canyon, this private property features a swimming pool with waterfall and slide, large outdoor living room along with outdoor kitchen and BBQ with eating bar and dining space. It is fully fenced in with plenty of room for pets, and it for your use exclusively! If you enjoy games, there is a bocce court and horseshoe pits as well. Located across from Tapia Park and minutes from Malibu Creek State Park and the beach there are plenty of trails to explore and you can even book tours of Malibu's waterfalls. Perfect for stargazing as a part of a dark sky community, you might even spot some owls. If you are into the other type of star gazing there are Malibu star homes and beach tours. You may want to book a wine tasting tour or just enjoy your own bottle out by the pool. Plenty of restaurant choices too, from the Malibu Seafood Company to Nobu and many priced in between. And if historic locations are on your agenda, the Adamson House and Malibu Lagoon Museum are worth a visit and you can tie in a walk on Malibu pier as well. If you don't mind venturing a little further, there is the spectacular Getty Villa. And of course you're not far from any of the major LA area attractions.

During the summer (July, August, September) the pool is warm enough without heating and free to you to use. If you are planning to use the pool any other time, please advise in advance and select the pool option, so that we can make sure it is heated for you. The spa is free to use all year around.

Beautiful Property and Great Owner!

My wife, daughter, and I loved our stay at Manny’s cabin. The hot tub and pool were amazing. The heating fee was very reasonable compared to a lot of properties. Manny is easy to communicate with and a very gracious host. The cabin is well stocked and everything worked as it should. The place feels very secluded and private. Nature sounds and life are abundant. We would definitely stay here again.

An Incredibly Lovely Getaway Weekend!

This was the perfect mini romantic weekend getaway from the busy city with such generous and sweet hosts (and their precious dogs!). The gorgeous backyard was spacious with so much room to lounge by the fire pits, run around, hit golf balls by the net, bbq, and much more. The pool and jacuzzi are both charming and relaxing, perfect for what we needed in a getaway. The guesthouse itself was also spacious and lovely, with plenty of room to feel comfortable and relaxed. We loved this experience so much, that we already booked more days in a few months!

Great spot for a weekend getaway!

I loved everything about my stay here! I can't get over how beautiful this property is! Looks just like the photos but even better in person. The pool was amazing. The weather was great. I really loved the fire pit by the pool and the lounging areas. The frogs at night were pretty cool. The owners of the property are the sweetest and made sure we were good. My friends and I really enjoyed our stay here. Manny and Marti you guys are awesome, thank you!

Amazing Spot

This is an amazing and beautiful property. Very comfortable and homey. Everything you need for a nice relaxing quiet getaway. The house has everything you could need, super nice cookware, an incredible library of books and games, and is wonderfully decorated. The pool and spa are beautiful, and the outside amenities are incredible (including bocce and horseshoes?!). The host is very attentive and communicative. Cute ducks, and a chorus of frogs at night. Just an overall great spot, highly recommend!!!

Our stay at Manny's place was amazing. The location in Malibu is very private and tucked away but accessible and surprisingly close to the city and nearby shopping. The grounds are beautiful and the pool and recreation gardens are unique and so incredibly nice, a great balance of natural tranquility and fun amenities. Its even nicer than the pictures! The house itself is organized and the kitchen is very well-stocked for indoor and outdoor cooking. Communication was fast and easy, and checkin/checkout was seamless. Awesome for our family, although there are some cute collectibles and fragile objects you might want to put away safely if you have boisterous young children. We look forward to staying here again in future. Highly recommended.

Heaven on earth

No vacation accommodation is perfect, but I must say that for us this was about as close as we have ever come. An idyllic setting nestled in the Malibu Canyon, truly serene. Perfect for up to 4 guests. Private use of the pool, Jacuzzi, bocce ball court and barbecue. The hosts were gracious to a fault and the weather was perfect. Cant recommend enough. I don't know how you would beat the location. Private yet close enough to any activities that interest you. Hike in the state park, drive to the beach, dinner or shopping or just hang out and enjoy nature. Could not be happier with the experience. Great romantic getaway or a family vacation. You won't be disappointed.

Beautiful oasis in the canyon!

This place is amazing! The home was spacious and had everything we needed for a 4-night stay. We cooked, lounged by the lovely pool, played bocce ball and horseshoes (all provided by the hosts!). The property is quiet and relaxing. There is plenty of space for a family and lots to explore in the area. The kids played board games while I cooked dinner and we hit the spa after dinner too! The hosts, Manny and Marti, are wonderful. Communication was excellent, before and during our stay. Loved learning about the history of the area and property while sharing some wine with them! The hosts gave us privacy but were also available for any questions or requests on short notice. This place is a gem and worth checking out if you are looking for a place close to Malibu but away from the hustle and bustle of the beach. We will be staying here again!

Nous avons adoré cet hébergement et la gentillesse de ses propriétaires. Qu'il fût difficile de quitter ce bel endroit qui est d'une incroyable beauté et d'un calme absolu! Un 10/10 n'est pas suffisant. Tout a été fait avec tellement de goût et il ne manque rien dans la maison. L'extérieur est exceptionnel. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir.

Incredible holiday house in a beautful location

Just back from 12 wonderful days in this superb house. The photos and description in the listing don't manage to convey just how great this place is, inside and out. We've rented holiday homes all over Europe and the USA but nothing compares to this one. The outside space is stunning and the inside is perfectly set up for a luxurious, relaxing stay. Location wise it's really easy to get into LA and its numerous attractions, and even easier to travel to local beaches in Malibu. Groceries are a 10 minute drive away in a large supermarket. We took the opportunity to do various day trips but always looked forward to coming back to the tranquility of the house. We cannot recommend this highly enough!

Great Getaway

This place is idyllic, very homey and everything you might need to cook, enjoy the pool, and relax!! The hosts are great! Very kind, responsive and helpful. The cool air comes over the mountain and makes it a bit cooler there than in the rest of LA.
