Amazing getaway above it all
We have stayed in the neighborhood previously, and loved being up and away from the bustle of downtown Malibu. The Pool House was a special treat, with fabulous views through big windows, or from a number of outside places to sit, beautiful furnishings, and a well outfitted kitchen, It was a quiet and serene place to return to after a day spent with family. Shannon is great to work with, and very responsive to questions. We hope to stay again, sometime.

Wonderful stay!
My wife and I stayed a few nights at the pool house at the end of our week in the LA area. Shannon was a very accommodating host with great communication. The house was exactly as represented and beautifully presented. The views were second to none and we had a very peaceful and restful stay. Bed was very comfortable. We were glad to have had the chance to stay here and hope to be able to do so again.

Fantastic peace!
My wife and I stayed here for three nights. We found it extremely quiet and peaceful. The views are exquisite and the pictures do not do it justice. We stayed in February so we didn't use the pool. However, a summertime return is on our short list. Our hosts were gracious, accommodating and have the cutest dog ever! Also, the hosts directions to the property are extremely helpful. Do not trust your own GPS!

The Pool House was Amazing
The Pool House is even more spectacular in person than in pictures. Amazing property and views. Great location convenient to Malibu and LA. Shannon was a wonderful host and gave us suggestions on where to go and what to see in the area including hiking trails. We would definitely return to the Pool House!

A perfect escape
All the glowing reviews of the pool house didn’t prepare us for the real experience. The house and grounds are beautiful and the views are stunning. Every aspect of the property has been thoughtfully planned and considered. This is a perfect spot to unwind and recharge. Shannon is a perfect host who responded immediately to questions. Her recommendations for local restaurants and attractions were knowledgeable and helpful.

This was the perfect place to relax and chill. SUPER quiet yet minutes from Pacific Coast Highway and the beaches. VERY clean and well maintained. We wanted for nothing-yet Owner was very accessible for any questions. Did not even need the A/C with the breezes coming up the canyon from the ocean...Will DEFINITELY be back ! Thank you !!!!

A beautiful view from a lovely little house
The house you see is a beautiful architecturally modern house way up in the hills above Malibu (thing Frank Gerhry though it is the owners’ design) and the rental is the pool house just below that. The view is stunning, the kitchen fabulously equipped and the owners gracious but never intrusive. It is up an extremely narrow and winding road, and if this is a problem for you then stay elsewhere, but if you don’t mind the road, and we didn’t, this is a wonderful retreat. The view is mountain and ocean and other spectacular homes in the distance. It’s a great place to explore the many beaches and state parks near Malibu as well as the Getty villa, which is very nearby and gorgeous, filled with antiquities from all over the ancient world. The house is decorated in authentic mid-century modern furniture and was a perfect place to chill for a few days. The owner left many interesting books about the area and architecture as well as menus for nearby restaurants. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful place
All the lovely comments written in the previous reviews are true. This place cannot be matched on its views and idyllic location, and it’s so close to the beautiful Malibu beach. We had plans every day so didnt really spend a lot of time at the property and I wish we would have taken some time out to enjoy it more. Being from the UK we were not prepared for the canyon roads which we found pretty scary! I’m sure travellers from the US would be used to them but our car was not really suitable for the roads to and from the property and for us the journey was daunting even in daylight (this is no criticism of the property)!! Almost every day on our drive we saw wild deer which was amazing. Overall this is a great property, the owners are lovely, and if you’re looking for somewhere to relax it’s perfect.

Book it NOW! Don't miss this opportunity!
Don't hesitate, just book it now! Don't miss the opportunity! Absolutely gorgeous house with a perfect view nestled in the mountains. Such a serene oasis in a very quiet neighborhood. The house was immaculately maintained with high end furniture and appliances. Even the bed was super comfortable! The pool deck was very clean and beautiful. Shannon and Vitus were perfect hosts, they let us have our space but made it very clear they were available for anything we needed. Tons of privacy! Wish we could have stayed longer!!!

This place is special
I’m sitting at that small dining table. We check out in about 3 hours. I have a 180 degree view through all these sliding glass doors. Close by is the beautiful landscaping - palms, lavender, rosemary, succulents, avocado and citrus trees and more. Then a steep canyon and a big view of the ocean. We love it here. We spend a lot of time just enjoying the view and watching the birds play in the trees. It’s our third time here and we look forward to coming back.

The best part of our trip to California.
This is the most incredible property we have every rented. The view is breathtaking, you feel as if you are on your own private island. Its extremely quiet and relaxing and we did not want to leave. We ended up cancelling all our dinner reservations and cooking in both nights because we loved the place so much! Perfect size for 2 people, we can not wait to come back to this very special home.

A Heavenly Stay!
This was a very perfect 1 -bedroom with loads of privacy and outstanding views. The kitchen was very well appointed with a Viking oven/range and Bosch refrigerator. The binoculars were a nice touch, too, since this Pool House has a view that extends miles! We will look forward to our next visit!

Amazing!
My husband and I stayed at the pool house for 5 nights. Our stay was wonderful! Quiet, comfortable, clean and the views were incredible. This is the perfect place to stay for access to the beaches and hiking around Malibu. Location is very private, yet close to everything. We watched the sunsets from the deck which were spectacular. We commented that we could have stayed all week on the deck just taking in the views! The pool house is a great place to unplug and relax. Shannon was an excellent host. Communication was perfect. We would absolutely stay again!

Amazing Views, Private Location
My husband and I just returned from our stay here. To quote my husband, “it really does not get any better with this view”. You get the gorgeous mountains and the Pacific ocean. The pool house is completely private. Like all other reviews, I highly recommend arriving during daylight hours. Everything during our stay was exceptional. We found ourselves sitting outside for most of our visit simply because if the peacefulness and views. The location cannot be beat if you are looking to stay Malibu. The grocery store was just minutes away and many great restaurants. For us, views and privacy were most important and this property had both. I also appreciated the quick responses from Shannon. There is no doubt we will return. The nice thing about our next trip to Malibu is that we will save time finding a place to stay. My husband and I travel quite a bit, and I have to say this was one of the most breathtaking views we have seen. Thank you Shannon & Vitus for the hosptiality.

Outstanding
I was not sure what to expect -- and this place was so perfect I was able to stay an extra day. The view was amazing, check in and out was easy, everything was there, and I didn't want to leave. I am looking at my calendar to figure out when to go again. Having limited cell phone coverage, but great internet up there, was an added bonus for me!
