Malibu vacation

I loved our stay at this location. I have stayed at many VRBOs on the California coast and this is my favorite by far. The proximity to the ocean, hearing the waves crash on the sand, smelling the sea. We loved it and will be back again!

It was a great little property. Worked great for two people looking for a coast apartment. It has held up well for being right on the water.
