Cottage vacation rentals in Malibu

This is our 3rd time staying at Joseph & Kelly’s place! It is always a pleasure! They make you feel right at home and are willing to help with any need! We love this place and plan to return very soon!

**An Amazing Stay!** We had an incredible five-night stay at this wonderful Airbnb after our wedding, and it truly exceeded all our expectations. The comfortable furniture and cozy atmosphere made it feel like a home away from home. We slept like babies in the super comfy bed! The neighborhood was fantastic, and we enjoyed surfing every day and indulging in delicious meals. You have to check out Malibu Brew Co and get a burger and a couple of beers. The hosts were exceptional—they clearly know how to run an Airbnb and made our experience unforgettable. This is definitely one of the best Airbnb’s I have ever stayed in. I very highly recommend.

Beautiful cottage and gardens, wonderful neighborhood, walkable. Connie was so helpful and welcoming! Perfect place to stay for the Rose Parade and Rose Bowl.

Our stay here was quick, but just what we were looking for—peaceful and quiet. Our family of six stayed, and one reason we chose it was because each of our four kids would have their own bed. No pillow barriers needed haha. Speaking of beds, these were the *most* comfortable ones we’ve used at an AirBnB. The space was comfy, inviting, and super cool. We loved looking at all the music industry memorabilia, too; what a neat legacy for Michele to share with her AirBnB guests! One thing to note: the place is a converted garage so it is cooled and heated with a mini-split. It wasn’t turned on when we got there, and we wish it had been because it was a pretty cold, drizzly night (December) and took a long time to heat up. So if you stay here, maybe request that it be turned on in advance of your arrival. I’m sure the property management wouldn’t mind at all because they were nothing but accommodating and welcoming. Our big family felt lucky to find this place to stay while in the area.

This place is so beautiful, quiet, secluded and magical! It's about 12 minutes drive from the town of Pearblossom which is very small. It's a small gates area with only a few houses around, but we havn't seen anyone while we stayed there. It's 9 minutes walk from a natural park called "the devil's punch bowl" where you can hike and climb on rocks. We enjoyed it very much with our kids and dog. The house is great! It has lots of bedrooms and beds, fully stocked kitchen (very old appliances but they work), 2 fireplaces, many TV's, awesome play room and a wonderful Jacuzzi (strong jets). We spent time hiking, bathing, playing pool, watching movies and eating. This is a perfect place to check out from the world and enjoy family time. I will also mention that if you go outside early, you will see a few dears! There's a grocery store about 12 minutes drive, we brought a lot of food with us. Wonderful experience!

MK is a fantastic host! Her place is in a wonderful, central location that allows you to easily get around LA which is saying a lot as LA can be a tough city to get around in. The home matched the description and photos. MK was very accommodating, flexible, kind, and responsive - thank you for a great stay!

Darrell's place is truly magical, like stepping through a portal into another world. If you are given the opportunity to experience this one of a kind place, don't miss out.

We had the BEST time at Chase’s place. We loved the island itself, but felt very lucky to find such a fun and personable place that was full of character and wonderful amenities. We loved the hot tub, the beach items, the games, the office capabilities, the yoga items, the great water pressure, and on and on. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you, Chase!

My daughter and I had a fantastic stay. Everything was as described, and we felt completely at home. The location is perfect - quiet and safe. I enjoyed walking through the neighborhood and checking out all of the beautiful houses. The bungalow was very well-equipped with everything we needed. My only issue (which was only mine) was that cabinets were really high up for me (I’m only 5’0), but wasn’t an issue for my much taller daughter. The patio was also a perfect place to relax and enjoy the beautiful weather we had. We will definitely stay here again when we’re visiting So. Cal.

Nicely laid out space. Plenty of room for 4 people and 2 dogs. All surfaces were clean and easy to clean. So many toys to use for the beach. Bikes, boogie boards, chairs and a wagon. Made it so much easier to pack. Great to have a laundry space. Parking was easy. Entering the place was easy. Ernie was very communicative. Loved the place. Will. Be back.

My daughter and I loved our special mother/daughter getaway to the cabin by the ocean! This is a beautiful location. We had a blast and Aaron and Monica were super responsive. Thanks again.

Unique little spot with amazing views. We were even able to get a bit of hiking in - Lisa gave us the inside scoop on how to walk from our lil trailer to the Topanga State Park trails. We spent some time in LA as well as Oxnard to go whale watching - couldn’t have been better situated to access all the good stuff and take some scenic drives (if you’re into that sort of thing). We are into that sort of thing. Well worth the money just for the atmosphere and nature (fell asleep to the croaks of the local frog population) though we didn’t see any. Comfy beds and restful sleep. Thank you!

We were suddenly displaced during Eaton Canyon Fire. The Cottage was ideal, secure, familiar, friendly place to perch while we regrouped and looked for long term housing. Kristin and Richard were generous, kind, and understanding. Accomodated not only our family, but our pets as well. Great neighborhood, easy walk to dozens of restaurants, coffee shops, banks, two grocery stores.

Beautiful and peaceful area. The house had everything we needed and was very clean and comfy. We had an issue initially with heat but he helped us solve that. His dogs are very cute but you don’t have to see them and Don keeps them quiet and controlled. We would definitely recommend and stay there again!

My wife and I had a lovely time visiting Ventura. The fountain and greenery around the house attracted a beautiful multitude of birds to watch. Aside from that entertainment, it was only a very short walk to the great downtown main street with lots of shops and restaurants. Staying here was a great experience!

This house is lovely, and situated in a quiet neighborhood. Some features we loved: - The large quiet backyard. - All of the windows, and they open! - The location. When traveling, my family prefers to be in a neighborhood, and not a downtown locale. If that’s you too, this place is for you. - Even still, the location is incredibly close to Trader Joe’s, Gelson’s, and lots of great restaurants - that are within walking distance. Overall, it was a great experience, and Callie and Zach were very responsive and helpful. Thanks for making our LA trip that much more enjoyable!

Great stay! The property was exactly as described. I will definitely come back next time we visit Newport area. Thank you!!!

This was my second stay. Beautiful space and great location. I would definitely stay here again.

My family and I had a great stay at Kingston's place. My husband and I had our toddler so the three of us were very comfortable. The unit was clean and the beds were very comfortable. We wanted to extend our stay and Kingston was gracious and willing to let us do so. We will absolutely be returning when we come back to Newport!

This is almost a tiny house-- about 12'*20', in the back yard of a house. There's a room about big enough for a queen bed, chairs, and a table, a much larger bathroom than you'd expect, and a galley kitchen with a small dining table. There's also a little porch to sit on. It all very cute and cozy. I'd say it's like a suite hotel, only you have much more privacy, plus more appliances, and access to a washer-drier, as well as a really friendly host. The house is maybe a mile from the pier at Huntington Beach in a quiet neighborhood. It's bike-friendly. Great place to stay!

Such a nice, well-equipped home, just a couple minutes walk to the beach. The kitchen was nice, and the beds and linens were divine!

We liked our stay at Annet's place very much. Clean, has everything you need, close to many places. The view of LA is an awesome.

This is a hidden gem. The location is quiet and charming, yet close to the freeway and convenient to everything in LA. I especially loved the backyard garden and sitting area. The convenience of the washer and dryer is an added plus! The bed is comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked. I highly recommend! Thanks Amir!

Wonderful, charming, and cozy house. Many thoughtful tastes by the hosts! Left feeling so relaxed after a nice trip in LA! The attention to detail was impeccable, including a serene water feature outside each bedroom to give a natural sound to sleep over normal LA noises. Thanks again!
