There are two buildings on the property: the main house and driveway are not included in this listing--we ask that guests respect the privacy of each others' space.

Upon check-in we will buzz you in the private road and you will receive a gate clicker that will allow you to access the private road that is a quick and easy way to get to/from Pacific Coast Highway. We have 1 gate opener that you can borrow, but their use is subject to the gate road association's regulations which may change in the future (which would require simply entering a code to get buzzed in and out of the gate each time).

Please note no trucks, vans (including minivans), Sprinter/high top vans, camper vans, or oversize SUVs can use the private, gated road. You will need to take the longer, back route which is rather windy and takes about 10-15 minutes versus using the private gate. Only standard cars and small or mid-size SUVs can use the private gated road.

Sara is our full-time, professional Superhost available 24/7 during your stay. We give our guests privacy first and foremost. We also pride ourselves on being responsive and helpful hosts and are available by phone (at all hours) if any issues arise during your stay. We are also more than happy to provide recommendations for local restaurants, shopping, beaches, hiking trails, and other outdoor activities.

SMOKING IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED ANYWHERE ON THE PROPERTY. Please do not book this property if you smoke.

Due to our location in the mountains, cell phone service can be spotty around our property. Please keep this in mind and print out driving directions and check-in information for your reference prior to your arrival. 5g wifi is available here once you check-in.

Upon check-in we will buzz you in the private road and you will receive a gate clicker that will allow you to access the private road that is a quick and easy way to get to/from Pacific Coast Highway. We will absolutely do our best to buzz you in and out for your arrival and departure, but please be aware that if you arrive or depart between midnight and 7am, you might need to take the longer, windy route which is about 10-15 extra minutes to PCH.

Guests have access to 5g WiFi throughout the guest house and outdoor areas.

No additional guests on the property at any time that are not on the reservation.

This house is surrounded by some amazing nature, and so you can expect to see some bugs and wildlife at times. In the summer they are especially active--we are always clearing off spider webs and cleaning inside and outside but please understand you probably will run into some bugs & critters during your stay.

Uber and Lyft may take a long time to go to this neighborhood and a car is very strongly recommended to stay at this home located on the Malibu Mountains.

FAQs:

Q: Is the beach walkable?
A: Unfortunately not, in order to get this incredible, panoramic ocean view we are on a street that has a steep incline and walking to the beach isn't really an option (some guests who are active/hikers have but personally I would NOT consider it walkable). We're a 2-3 minute drive away from Duke's Malibu, and from there many beaches can be reached within minutes.

Q: Can I host my event here?
A: We may on a limited basis allow a hard limit of 15 people on the property. Extra fees will apply and typically start at $5K. We will needs specifics about your request to know if it's possible and give an accurate quote. If the request involves more than 15 people we cannot host it.

Q: Can I film/take pictures here?
A: We do not book shoots through VRBO. You need to go through on of our location agencies--We are represented by Malibu Locations, Image Locations, and Cast Locations.

Q: Do you really mean it when you say no parties/gatherings/extra visitors who aren't spending the night??
A: YES! We will cancel your reservation without a refund if you try to bring extra people on to the property. We live in a quiet family neighborhood and have a zero tolerance for parties/gatherings/events/"it's not a party I just invited some extra friends over"/unauthorized photo shoots/commercial activity
