    Cozy vibes and great food!

    Super chill spot! The rooftop views are unreal, and I loved running to grab a surfboard for some wave therapy. Plus, meals were on point! Just wish the room fridge worked better-it left some of my snacks warm and moldy, a bummer.

    I had a lovely two-night stay in an upstairs ocean view room. The rooftop dining with the breathtaking views was a highlight, especially their delicious breakfast options. The decor was just as stunning as the photos—really felt like a California beach house! I'd definitely come back.

    Relaxing Beach Retreat with Amazing Views

    The cozy room features a personalized minibar, ensuring refreshments catered to our taste. Don't miss visiting the nearby Malibu Farm for fresh dishes. For a peaceful experience, aim for a room away from the rooftop.

    cozy vibe
    rooftop bar
    spotty service

    I loved the cozy vibe and the yummy mojitos from the rooftop bar. Watching dolphins jump in the water was a real treat! The rooftop area with sun loungers was perfect for relaxing, and I could easily grab a surfboard to ride some waves. Just a heads up, coffee service could be a bit spotty at times, but it didn't ruin the overall great experience. 😊

    sunset views
    roof deck

    Just a proper fit for a brief hiatus in Malibu with reasonable value. The tacos and spicy margaritas on the roof deck were amazing. Make sure to check out the sunset views from up there.

    complimentary surfboards
    ocean view
    great staff
    lack of family activities

    The complimentary surfboards and paddleboards were a hit with the kids and teens. Plus, sipping morning coffee while admiring the fine ocean view made our mornings perfect. The staff treated us like family, we had everything we needed!

    My kids wished there were more family activities, like games or night events to keep the children entertained.

    fine view
    very nice food

    Couples seeking a cozy retreat

    We found the rooftop bar to be fine really the view while sipping drinks made it feel like we were in paradise and the food was just very nice too we had amazing burrata, made us cancel dinner plans so we could enjoy the atmosphere longer

    It wasn't exactly a low-cost stay but I mean for the experience it was all worth it

    The rooftop views captivated me, and enjoying breakfast there was a highlight. I encountered some distracting highway noise, but the overall charm of the hotel was great.

    charming design but lacking in some details

    The design and overall aesthetics are charming and well thought out. The sea view from our room was fine and enhanced our stay.

    The service could be more attentive.

    complimentary surfboards
    amazing rooftop views
    great breakfast
    distracting highway noise

    We loved using the complimentary surfboards and the free WiFi made planning our days easy. Don't miss breakfast on the rooftop. The views are amazing. Just so you know, the rooftop is a must-visit spot for sunrises and sunset cocktails. Totally recommend it!

    One downside was the noise from the highway near our room. It could get a bit distracting, especially at night.
