Wonderful weekend getaway!
Great place to come getaway for a weekend or longer! We definitely could have stayed longer. It was so nice to be able to hang outside and use the bbq for most of our meals. They have tons of plates, cups, cooking utensils etc. The bedrooms and bathrooms were so clean, tons of extra pillows and blankets. The welcome manual was super useful and it was so easy to communicate with the host. We loved the backyard and pool/ spa. It was a shared space but the other group was so kind and easy going. It made the trip more fun to be able to meet new people and enjoy the beautiful yard together. Also, the location is 10 stars, it’s 10-15 minute drive from everything and you have the feeling your so secluded and safe. I can’t wait to book this house again!!

Malibu Retreat
This property was everything we were looking for while visiting our daughter in Malibu. It was clean, private, quiet, peaceful and just far enough away from the noise of PCH, yet convenient to everything. The owners were very friendly and respectful. The pool (although because it is winter and we did not go swimming) was a charming place to hang out and enjoy the tranquility. We will definitely consider The Malibu Retreat the next time we venture west to visit our daughter! Joe and Patrice

About the host

Hosted by Brittney Dougherty

Host profile image
I'm a 55 year old grandmother of 5 and mother of 4. I spent 25 years in the music business and have helped launch many incredible artists. I'm truly blessed! My daughter son and created The Malibu Retreat together, and now we work together for our family business.

Why they chose this property

Our home is one of a kind! We moved here 20 years ago from NJ and never looked back! We LOVE that our home backs up to 10,000 acres of parkland. While we're in the middle of the mountains... we're right in between world famous Malibu beaches and old town of Calabasas. It's cooler here than in the valley, and warmer than the beaches. Our home is funky and fun... and has been the home to our offices, retreats, concerts, parties, movie shoots etc. It just FEELS good! My family and I have spent our lives in the entertainment industry, and most recently wellness and hospitality. We've been sharing our New Jersey beach house with renters for over 2 decades and are really excited to share our Malibu home with you now too!

What makes this property unique

The Malibu Retreat is located in the middle of nature... it's so quiet... except for the sounds of the birds, windchimes, and now too our resident peacock! we have fresh air and clear skies... And for less than the price of a moderate LA hotel room, whether guests book our Guest House, Main Estate or the entire property... it's like having a private resort just for your family!
