This place is ideally located on a beautiful beach with stunning views and is within walking distance to the pier and shops. We especially loved our time on the balcony enjoying the sights and sounds of the crashing waves. We also appreciated the parking. The man, Angel, who met us at the rental and let us in was super kind and informative! However, given the price point of this rental we were disappointed that there was no hot water coming from the bathroom sink, the blinds were broken and inoperable in both the bedroom and living room. Overall the place has a rustic and charming feel, but could use a few updates.

The space was exactly as advertised! Angel and the on site team were very responsive with any questions or needs. My sons and I made some great memories and would definitely come back to this place!

This was our 3rd stay and it never disappoints! It's absolutely breathtaking. Clean and everything you need is either already there or very close by, walks to the pier for delicious coffee in the morning and a glass of wine on the balcony listening to the crashing waves. We can't wait to come back! Thank you!

The location is great and the view is amazing. But that’s about it. This property is in need of maintenance. It’s not that it’s dated it is in disrepair. The door to the balcony doesn’t shut, the bathroom door is hard to close, mold around some windows. The fireplace doesn’t work. The nicest piece of furniture is the balcony sofa. I wouldn’t say the photos match the listing and it definitely feels like they keep charging a premium for a property that is declining and overall feels grimy. I am very suspicious of all of these 10/10 reviews. Very misleading. The management was very kind. No issues with them!

Location is A+. Exactly what I wanted. Sit on patio and listen to the waves all day. The unit is a little dated but it was much cheaper option compared to the other VRBOs in Malibu. Pro Tip: If someone is sleeping on the pullout couch bed, ask the maintenance guy to bring another mattress to stack on top of the one on the bed otherwise it is really uncomfortable.

Beautiful condo on the beach. Love the location right on the beach with views of the Malibu pier. The balcony is so nice to sit on and watch the waves, people on the beach and marine life. Angel manages the property and is so nice. He even brought us some coffee when I asked where to get it. The one bedroom condo was clean and perfect for our visit. We loved our stay in Malibu.❤️

Book it. Go. Words cannot describe this little piece of heaven. We had coffee every morning as the sun rose listening to the waves crash on the shore just below the deck. If you are tired and do not want to cook…next door has a feast waiting to be devoured! Five stars!

Amazing location just steps from the Malibu Pier, with off street private parking. Unit is older, but clean with direct access to beach and private deck over looking the ocean. Highly recommend!

The location of this place is amazing and we loved hearing the ocean. Check-in was great and the manager of the complex was very nice. The mattress on the bed was uncomfortable, and the place needs updating. I read the reviews before I booked it and the responses to similar comments about updating the place are always "We are continually updating..." I don't understand what they are updating. LOL I don't see it. The heater didn't seem to work well (looks like it's been there since 1940), but we were only there for two days, and the weather was fine, so wasn't worth the hassle of having it looked at. If the bed was comfortable, we wouldn't have minded it being so rustic...but it wasn't.

Pros: *Ocean front property can't be beat - it was lovely being able to sit on the porch and stare into the ocean and hear the waves. The ocean view from the bedroom was also nice! *Angel, the onsite manager, was great - he was kind, helpful, and friendly! *Plenty of towels, TP, Tissue (which is nice in a STR) *Appreciated the detailed instructions prior to arriving Cons in owner's control: *This condo is VERY dated - the appliances, much of the furniture, flooring is all old, cracked, rusted and in need of replacement *found a lot of ants in living room and bathroom (however, Angel was very quick to come and take care of the problem) *some cleanliness problems (top of fridge) Cons outside owner's control: *Parking is a challenge if you have a large vehicle (we had to park on the Pacific Coast Highway) *No beach in front of the condo (the tide comes up high and it's not a walkable beach) *No good places to walk your dog unless you're okay with the busy PCH Recommendations: *Offer a few more condiments (oil, etc.) *Describe kitchen offerings (full coffee pot vs. pod coffee pot) to help guest know what to bring/buy *Update the contact sheet (the sheet itself is rusted and worn out) with the most accurate people/person to call when the guest needs something *A couple throw blankets would be nice for living room *Consider updating to a king bed that is more comfortable Overall, although the apartment is quite tired, it was a nice stay and you can't top the ocean view!

I would highly recommend this rental. It was our third time to the property. Condo was clean - staff super friendly! Being right on the beach and waves rolling in was the best part. Great restaurants walking and driving distance. Great location to explore further afield

We absolutely loved the calming sound of waves washing off the shore! Beautiful sunsets and sunrises, close to hiking trails, Santa Monica, LA, and many others worth to see attractions. Very clean with amazing owner and manager. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a bit privacy but yet to be close to everything!!!

Angel was there to meet us when we checked in. He proceeded to show us our garage and cottage. He even showed us around the property answering all questions. The only complaint is the ant trail that we found in the kitchen. I did not cook and discarded fruit rinds immediately in outdoor trash. I did not bother Angel because it was Christmas Eve. I bought Ant killer and left it under the kitchen sink. Besides that, the place was great!

A great stay! We decided to extend our vacation at the last minute and were lucky enough to find this property! Sun ALL DAY on the deck. Great walks along the beach when the tide is out. Beautiful views when the tide is in. Walk to Malibu Pier. We only heard waves - not PCH. The unit is also incredibly well stocked. Access to extra towels and washcloths, shampoo, dish soap, and paper products was greatly appreciated. The property manager was very kind and attentive, and the price point was a wonderful bonus!! Steal of a deal for the location and views… Thank you!!

It was beautiful! Only we thought we would have more of a beach not a lot of rocks in front of us. And there were ants.also the floor was dirty. Other then that, we enjoy the place and location

This property was everything I dreamt it would be. Close to the pier, Dreamland, McDonalds/Jack in the Box. Whole Foods, etc. Plenty of beach if you are in to that. Garage was nice, and gated community. The best was the shower. Plenty of hot water, and powerful showerhead. We stayed for 7 days, and this location worked great for Santa Barbara trip, 30 minutes from LAX, Hollywood etc. The only thing I would recommend is a taller kitchen trash can. Thanks for letting us use your property, and GO DAWGS!

There is no air conditioning, no heat except a 1950's electric element heater in the bathroom (which is very dangerous), no smoke detectors. All of the furniture needs to be replaced. If your looking for a a luxury apartment pass on this one. If you're just looking for a place to crash, this would be sufficient.

The view was great if that’s what you’re going for. The Unit was dated and lacked kitchen counter space. Sofa bed was not comfortable at all, luckily my son is too small to experience body aches yet. But, other than that, it was nice. Close to pier.

We would love to have stayed longer. Oceanfront is an understatement as the surf comes right to the deck at high tide. Excellent support and communication from the onsite staff. They made it easy.
