Rent a Malibu Estate

With the lack of 4 and 5 star hotels and resorts in Malibu, California, a new vacation rental option has been created, the luxury vacation estate rental. Numerous high-end gorgeous estates dot the pacific coast celebrity laden landscape and some of these special homes are available to the general public to rent. Of course, the price isn’t cheap (anywhere from 1k a night to 7k) but when shared among a family or group, the price becomes comparable to a 4 star hotel. And these estates have space. Multiple bedrooms, even multiple guest houses to stash the annoying uncles and barking dogs away.
Booking a Malibu vacation rental estate means freedom- freedom from pesky bellhops and the prying eyes of other guests. Total privacy awaits as well as an absorption into the local lore. Become one with Malibu. Live like the celebrities do, and try to avoid the paparazzi. Visit a local coffee shop, a clothing shop then relax in your own private pool and beach. Maid service and local chef/ catering is also normally offered. Because none of us wants to do laundry on our vacation. Much less fry up the bacon.

What many do not know, is that that estate they are staying at was recently occupied by a movie star. Movie stars are the most transient of creatures, oftentimes only renting villas and estates instead of settling down and Malibu is their premiere stomping grounds. Be sure to check the guest books when checking into your Malibu estate rental. You may be sleeping the same bed Batman just vacated.

Malibu is a term coined by the Chumash Indians, who originally lived on the land. It means, where the mountains meet the sea. Climate is fantastic year round, with actually Sept-Nov being the ‘best time.’ Many think summer is the prime market, but it is actually fall when the Pacific waters are the warmest and crisp, warm Santa Ana winds blow off shore from the desert, warming the coast and brightening the sun. Be sure to book these times as prices are a bit below peak as well.

Lastly, Malibu estate rentals are the perfect place to stage a wedding. These large, manicured grounds with incredible views of the mountains, Pacific Ocean and distant downtown Los Angeles, make a phenomenal spot to tie the knot. Many larger families rent two or three estates nearby one another, so that the whole familia has a place to lay their head.

Whether large family or not, the next time you think of going on vacation, round up your loved ones and investigate the thriving estate rental community
