About this property
Breathe Malibu - Ocean Front Condo w/ Beach Access
2025 Pacific Palisades Fire Update: The property withstood the recent Malibu fire and remains fully operational. Due to ongoing recovery, daily construction occurs on the building and nearby PCH, typically from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, with occasional Saturday work. Noise from construction can be heard from the unit, especially on the ocean-facing side, and activity varies day to day. Intermittent power outages may also occur. We are working closely with local homeowners to support the community while ensuring a safe and comfortable stay.

Nestled in Malibu`s serene Las Flores neighborhood, this fresh seaside condo lives oceanside with your own private beach access, offering a peaceful haven just minutes from local shops and dining.
Every corner of this thoughtfully designed condo invites you to unwind and embrace the coastal lifestyle, with the soothing sounds of California waves gently lulling you to sleep. Relax in comfort, retreating to a lush king-sized bed where you can drift off to the calming rhythm of the ocean beneath you.
The main living space and kitchen are bathed in natural light, with refreshing ocean breezes and a front-row seat to California`s stunning sunsets. A fully equipped kitchen and beautifully appointed bathroom add to the convenience, while the outdoor dining deck provides an ideal space for alfresco moments. Whether you choose to dive into the waves just steps away or enjoy the mesmerizing views from the comfort of your patio, this condo is your perfect beachfront sanctuary.
As of April 2025, Breathe Malibu now includes a brand-new in-unit washer and dryer for your convenience. Additionally, high-speed Starlink internet has been installed, offering a fast and reliable connection ideal for remote work, streaming, and video calls.

Guests will have access to the entire condo and the tandem carport driveway to park directly off of PCH. There will be no one else on the property, unless otherwise discussed with you in advance.

The best ocean front property I have ever stayed at!
Loved the unit and having high tide breaking under the house! We enjoyed the sound of the sea our whole visit! Very comfortable for 2 people! Had every thing we needed to make our stay a relaxing vacation! We will be back again!

Thank you for your 5 star review of Malibu Breathe! We love that you loved the home, so much that you could live there full time. Our ethos at Open Air Homes is to design homes that feel like real homes, so it's no wonder you felt you could make yourself at home and envision living there forever! Thanks for being such a great guest and come back anytime!
The apartment looked exactly like the photos, maybe better. Beautifully decorated and set up. The waves crash up underneath it at high tide and it’s very loud and the house vibrates at times but I enjoy it (there may be something underneath the unit hitting the stanchions and making loud noises). The dishwasher was not working properly and they only supplied 1 roll of tp so I had to make an emergency run to the convenience store ($4/roll!) but those are my only issues. Would definitely rent this unit again.
I was talking with my friend few months back, that I would love to stay in a place where the waves are coming all the way to the property. With some coincidence I decided to look what is available in Malibu few times, and one day this property showed as available. It was what I wanted, waves all day and night, property is very private, no traffic on the beach. The view is just magnificent, peaceful ocean all around. The apartment itself is newly updated with great design, we used the fully functional kitchen for breakfast. Access to the beach is a bonus. If you lucky you can see dolphins from the balcony. My daughter slept on the couch (converting to like a queen bed) in the living room, and she was happy with it, falling asleep with waves. We really enjoyed our stay. Management is very helpful, providing all needed info and some area recommendations, fast to respond, the whole check in and out process was a breeze.

What a serendipitous find for you to discover Breathe Malibu, a place that truly resonated with your dream of staying where the waves meet the property! We're elated that the magnificent views, private location, and newly updated design all contributed to a memorable experience for you and your family. It sounds like you made the most of your stay, even enjoying the sights of dolphins from the balcony. Open Air Homes strives to provide seamless and supportive management, and we're glad that the check-in and out process was smooth for you. Thank you for your glowing 5 star review. The place itself is on the smaller side, but with the waves right out the window and the rolling waves, it's the perfect escape for a few days for you all. We hope you'll consider staying with us again in the future for more peaceful ocean vistas and the soothing sounds of waves!
The property and location were both amazing! As if having the ocean waves crashing beneath you wasn't enough, the actual property was beyond expectation. Everything was clean and well appointed and offered the top modern conveniences. I honestly could not have asked for more! We had a few questions while there and it was easy to text the property managers and get a speedy response. Many great places to eat within a few minutes of driving. I also got a massage at Bliss Malibu and it was 90 minutes of...Bliss!
But let's be honest for a moment - the towels and toilet paper were great quality! I'm so tired of staying in hotels where the TP is paper thin and scratchy and so are the towels. That's not the case at Breathe Malibu - I was so happy to take a shower and wrap myself in a towel that felt soft and luxurious.
The top draw is the view. I could sit and stare at the ocean for hours. We saw a seal and dolphins! A few notes for future guests (we were here in September): you get maybe a couple of hours access to the beach from the property as it is underwater or close to it a lot of the time - but check the tides as that will change throughout the year. But it's an easy drive to beaches where you can sit on the sand as long as you want so don't let that deter you. Another note is that the PCH is BUSY and cars drive crazy fast, so getting in and out was a bit of an adventure. But not impossible.
If you're on the fence, get off now and just book your stay already! Worth it!
Great place to stay but the parking spot was difficult to access being right on Pacific Coast Highway and very fast moving traffic coming by. The other drawback was construction in the building that was going on during our stay. The view is great but the beach below the condo is not walkable because of the level of the water at high tide.

Thank you for the great review! We're glad you enjoyed the property and the views. You raise fair points — the PCH location does make parking a bit of an adventure, and we know the ongoing construction has been a drawback for some guests. We appreciate you flagging the beach access at high tide as well; that's helpful context for future visitors. Hope you had a wonderful stay overall and we'd love to have you back!
This is a beautiful property located right on the PCH (Pacific Coast Highway). The suite is comfortable and welcoming with a great king bed and gorgeous linens/towels.
Everything is here for a great getaway: an indoor and outdoor sitting area, Nespresso machines with capsules, a fully equipped kitchen, and a hard-to-beat deck overhanging the waves below. It's Amazing!
The property is close to great restaurants and a small shopping center in the village.
We loved our stay!

Thank you for your 5 star review of Breathe Malibu! Reviews like this are SO HELPFUL for future guests. It's one thing to hear from us how great our home is, but hearing from you makes all the difference. We love that you had a great stay and hope to host you again soon!
I wanted a break from the cold and the mountains, and this was the perfect place to do it. The property is RIGHT on the water, so I was able to sleep listening to the sounds of the water crashing against the house and it was so peaceful. I took several photos of the sunset and sunrise while I was there, and spent most of my time on the deck just watching the water. The house was immaculately clean and well stocked.
