“The ‘Malibu Beach Retreat’ property was as stunning in person as the photos on the website appeared. The sound and smell of the ocean - and the beach right there – were amazing. The property is kept in pristine condition and the no hassle concierge and reservation service provided by Diane made planning the trip very easy. We would highly recommend this property to anyone seeking a family beach retreat or Malibu getaway (but hopefully not to too many people since we want to come back soon!).”

"This property is spectacular! Our daughter's wedding weekend was complete when our family stayed in this beautiful, immaculate home. All of us expressed our joy at having our expectations exceeded. From my 86 year old mother to our son's baby this home fulfilled all of our needs. The pool, hot tub, media room and unbelievable views, with ocean waves lulling you to sleep, kept us all calm in the midst of wedding preparations. We plan to return for an annual retreat. From the owner to the manager's welcoming manner we were embraced. As the new bride said,"this place wraps its arms around you and creates a serenity and peace so my family could experience the magic of Malibu."

Beverly - Billings, Montana


“What a wonderful home! Quiet, relaxing, you feel like you are at your own exclusive resort. We have four children ranging in age from one to eighteen and there was something for everyone to do. Sitting outside in the evening and watching the sunset, with the ocean surf in the background (just typing this makes me wish I was there!) was so relaxing! The weather was perfect during our stay, 80’s during the day 60’s at night. We opened the windows to let in the fresh ocean breezes. We are already looking forward to returning with the whole family again in 2010!”

“The location was beautiful and relaxing - with wonderful spaces for large groups and small. Just like a resort. The kitchen was gourmet and ready for great meals. I took my small staff there for a working retreat and it was a perfect site. Great sound system and media room.”

Gay - Pasadena, California


“Everything about this place is perfect. My family of 14 spent a week and enjoyed every minute of it. We ate meals outdoors with a breathtaking view of the Pacific, lounged by the heated pool and hot tub in the most gorgeous outdoor furnishings and had great fun just hanging out together in the media room. The staff and owners were kind and flexible with us and worked hard to make our stay stress-free. Mission accomplished!”

Donna - Plano, Texas


“Our wedding weekend at the Malibu Beach Retreat was unique, casually chic and absolutely magical. The house itself is gorgeous, the view is simply breathtaking and the property as a whole is not only ideal for an event, it offers a perfect escape just far enough from the city to feel like you're getting a real vacation. Serene and luxurious, morning in the master suite was like waking up in a private little heaven. We never wanted to leave -- and we'll definitely go back!”

Stephanie & James - Los Angeles, California


“We were planning a family vacation to the Los Angeles area and wanted to stay someplace special that gave us room to spread out with easy access to the beach, hiking, surfing, and dining.  We found it all at this magnificent property and had a vacation to remember.  The privacy – gated and on the bluff overlooking the ocean, direct access to Zuma Beach, no homes between you and 180 degree views of the blue Pacific, the fantastic house – elegant yet casual and great for entertaining, the inviting pool/spa, and an on-site concierge who helped us with dining ideas and pre-stocking the house with food & wine, arranging surfing lessons, etc. - all combined to make this the ideal place to relax, reflect, and entertain.  We’ll be back!”
