Paradise

This place was magical. It felt like we were living on top of the ocean. Sitting on the balcony is one of my happier trip memories ever. It was super clean, safe, easily walkable to Nobu and the Pier. Recommend 100x over.

MALIBU WEDDING

We were in Malibu for a wedding that was about 20 minutes away. This place worked out perfectly as it was RIGHT ON THE BEACH. You could hear the ocean from any room. It was a cozy place with everything we needed. The Property Manager, Angel, was very helpful and pleasant. The bonus was that it was 20 degrees cooler than the wedding venue.

Beautiful property

We really loved staying here, the sound of the waves sending us to sleep each night, the view of the sea and pier, the style of the property and nice touches. The location was good as it was not a too busy area but also not too far away from everything. There was everything we needed in the property and it was a joy to stay in. Beds were comfortable, very clean and the staff on site were very helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

Best mini vacation ever!!!

Just book it!! You will not regret it!! It’s a little slice of heaven This is the second time that we have stayed and it was amazing!! Everything is spotlessly clean and honestly they have thought of everything. Angel and Samuel are friendly and are always around if you have a question The apartment is beautifully situated on the beach and has been tastefully decorated. It’s better than the photos and bigger. Plenty of space perfect for 6 with the pullout bed in the living room It’s also very central and so close to restaurants shopping etc also very quiet /safe and though it’s on PCH you do not hear any traffic We did see dolphins on the first trip and seals on the second such a special place!

This place was awesome inside and out, the views were incredible and you could sleep to the sound of the waves every night. We had an awesome experience from the time we showed up to the time we left. Angel, one of property employees was professional in helping us get all settled in and assured us a great time! The location is walking distance to several nice restaurants and shops, no need to worry about finding parking on PCH. Malibu was beautiful and the people there were very friendly. 5/5 stars!

Dream Beach Getaway at Porpoise on Carbon Beach

Everything was fantastic at the modernly renovated Porpoise rental on Carbon Beach. The light and airy beach vibes put us at ease immediately. We stayed for a short week with my wife, our 1.5-year-old son, and our two mini goldendoodles. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the kitchen was a dream - fully redone with new appliances, dishes, and utensils. The highlight was the huge balcony with comfortable chairs perfect for watching the sunset over the ocean, and a loveseat ideal for dolphin watching. Having garage parking for two cars was a huge plus on PCH. Angel and the property management crew were fantastic. The only minor thing to note is the showerhead in the main bathroom being a bit low. We can't wait to come back for another perfect beach getaway!
