Only 3 minutes to PCH. 5 minutes to the nearest shops. 10 to the Malibu Countrymart and restaurants. 20 minutes to Santa Monica.

Please note cellular phone reception is spotty at and near the house to receive consistent cell service your phone needs to support WiFi calling.

Please contact host ahead of time if EV charging is required.

DISCLOSURES / CLARIFICATIONS / CHANGES FROM PHOTOS:
The Main living room has a picture window that looks onto the driveway, and the house across the road. When you are sitting on the sofa you mostly see the ocean view. However, when you are standing closer to the window you can see the house in-front which partially obscures the ocean view. The side windows and two large sliding windows, have an unobstructed view of the Ocean and Santa Monica Mountains. Similarly in the Master Bedroom, when standing at the picture window the house across the street is prominent in the view - the side window has unobstructed views.

The Sofa in the living room has been replaced. with a grey designer sectional sofa. The white sofa in the picture looked great, but too many guests complained it was not comfortable for extended seating. We tried a few out and this sofa had great reviews. It's a great sofa to watch TV or a movie on the projector screen.

The tan wood Queen bed in the 1st guest bedroom was damaged and has been replaced with a new grey designer bed frame. The memory foam mattress is also new.

The picnic table and back patio lounges have been swapped in location as guests continually asked to move the picnic table closer to the kitchen/BBQ.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Full House access.

Only 3 minutes to PCH. 5 minutes to the nearest shops. 10 to the Malibu Countrymart and restaurants. 20 minutes to Santa Monica.

Happy to answer any questions you have.

Very quiet neighborhood on Private Road with only a few houses on the street. Hiking available out the door and dark skies at night for star gazing. Only a few minutes from beach but like staying in nature.

You will need a car. Uber or Lyft work great.

If you require a daily housekeeper for cleaning, shopping, laundry etc.. we can arrange this on request for $130/day - weekdays only. or $20/hr

We can also arrange to come to the house
- Personal chef ( can prep and also drop food off)
- Massage Therapist to come to house
- Yoga Instructor
- Personal Trainer

Wake up with the sun and the birds, this house is for people that love the light. Once you stay you would never want to leave.

The most beautiful place!!
Pictures do not do it justice--this is truly one of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed! It is perched on the side of a hill in Malibu, and the views are amazing. The house is very comfortable; we enjoyed the large movie screen in the living room, the spacious kitchen, and the relaxing outdoor seating with a hammock. Only a few minutes from the beach. We will definitely be back someday!! One of our best trips ever!

One of my absolute Favorites!
This home was so so lovely! It was the cleanest rental we’ve stayed in, it was Sparkling! the home, the neighborhood, the view, the proximity to everything can’t be beat. The projector was fun for the whole family, a little movie theater experience. Lying in the hammock listening to the birds was the relaxation I needed. The nearby restaurants,coffee shops and stores were great! I’d love to return! Okay so this had nothing to do with the house or the awesome attentive hosts but just an fyi for people visiting the area, We were stolen from.. twice. I couldn’t believe it, in Malibu, not Santa Monica. I wasn’t expecting that. Be vigilant. Not much you can do about your car being broken into, but we warned the kids not to carry anything like their wallets in their pockets or leave anything in the car.

The house was in a fantastic location perched high above the PCH in Malibu with spectacular views of the Pacific and the mountains. It was tastefully furnished and had an excellent fully-equipped kitchen. The landscaping around the property was beautifully done with many options for lounging and relaxing. There were great hikes nearby and just a short drive down to get to the fabulous Malibu restaurants. The hosts were very accommodating and quick to respond. Extremely happy with this property and highly recommend it!

We had a very nice stay in the Malibu Zen House. The location is a little remote, but the views make it worth it! There is a projector (not a TV) in the main living area which might be challenging for those not tech savvy. Kitchen is updated and everything worked well!

Wendy was a super host from start to end, giving great pre-arrival information, and clear check-in and check-out instructions. The neighborhood is quaint and quiet with private gated access and beautiful ocean and mountain views. The home was exactly what we expected and needed. Well stocked, clean, and comfortable. All the space on this property has some type of use and well designed for relaxing in privacy. 5 Stars! Highly Recommended.

Beautiful place with amazing views
The place itself and location are stunning. Exactly how described in the listing. Also the equipment (projector, DVDs, fireplace) in the house is amazing. Also the communication with manager was top. Unfortunately the house wasn’t ready for check in at 4pm as listed as there was an issue that day with the cleaners. So we sat in one room altogether and had to wait until the cleaners finished. I communicated with property manager and she was extremely helpful and forthcoming so we sorted it out and I was really happy with the outcome. As the cleaners were late they also took some shortcuts and didn’t clean properly everywhere and we had to tell and show them before we left. Besides this the house is definitely a 5 star house and everything else was perfect and as mentioned the Propery Manager Wendy was very helpful to us settled and forthcoming. Thanks again.

A quiet retreat on the Malibu highlands
We spent an excellent week at the villa. Our hosts Wendy and Manel were very helpful and kind. The house is well located in a quiet, secluded neighbourhood (the flip side being that it is not possible to walk to the beach, we need to drive). Views from the villa on the hills and Pacific are beautiful (fog permitting), although the view on Pacific is partially obstructed by the house just below. The villa is well equipped, especially its kitchen. A great vacation place overall.

Wendy and Manel are exceptional hosts. Their property is well maintained, pristinely clean and we felt very well cared for. The neighbors were wonderful too. The location to the beach is just a short drive down a private road, but the house has an incredible view of the water in his quietly nestled in the hills of Malibu. The home has a beautiful terrace with very comfortable furniture, perfect for gathering together with friends and family. It was so relaxing, we found ourselves never wanting to leave the house and rarely went out. If you have the opportunity to stay in this home we highly recommend it. Don’t think twice about it.

Our family stayed at this house for a week and we were so sad to leave. The house is lovely, simple, very clean but more than anything there is a great feel and energy to the house. The views are incredible, the hiking, walking, relaxing was fantastic. Can we talk about the birds? The sounds of the birds singing comes in every window and you feel like you are on an island by yourself. I cannot recommend this house enough! If you are lucky enough like we were, you can talk with the owners who are just a delight. So friendly, helpful, etc.....truly lovely people. You will love the house even more once you speak to them. WE HAD THE BEST TIME, and cannot wait to visit again. My son (16) said "Mom this was the best house we have ever rented!" and we have rented quite a few. Truly magical home! Has everything you need, beds very comfortable, kitchen has all the perks. We just loved it.

We had an incredible Christmas week at the Malibu Zen House. The views of the ocean and canyon are gorgeous. The yard looks professionally landscaped and is truly a zen escape. The house is spotless with many amenities. We especially loved the giant projector screen and vast collection of current DVDs. The location is close to many restaurants, beaches, and hiking trails with stunning views as you drive down the mountain. Wendy made herself available for questions and provided great suggestions for places to go in the area. Our whole family was sad to leave the Zen House.

Where to begin. This was just the best family trip ever. We rented this house for 3 weeks and are so sad to leave. Let's start with our hosts. They are incredibly caring, fair, and responsive. We needed some things replaced that had been damaged over time and with no questions asked Wendy and Manel took care of it right away. The house and the setting are just perfect. The house is exactly as advertised however the views cannot be explained in words or pictures. The house is a perfect size for a family or group of friends. All the finishings are new and modern. There are books, games great internet and TVs, even a movie screen. The BBQ areas is great. The multiple outdoor areas are perfect for hangin in the sun and reading a book. I'm pretty picky about accommodations and I really can't find anything to complain about here. It was actually hard for us to leave the house for most of the time, we loved it so much. When we did go out the house is in a perfect location. Up in the hills and away from it all yet a short ride down the hill to all the action you need- great places to eat. Drink, shop or beach. We are grateful to Wendy and Manel for an incredible stay. We will be back!!
