Well, after a hectic business trip in Santa Monica, we spent two nights at Casa Malibu to relax. It also happened to be my boyfriend's birthday so we were hoping for a special time, and we weren't disappointed. We thought this was just the most charming place on the stretch, with a beautiful courtyard covered with flowers where you can... more

The inn has timeless and understated old-school charm with modern comfort and amenities. The rooms, grounds and even the beach were always immaculately kept. Friendly and knowledgeable staff were helpful in personalizing my stay with suggestions for local activities. Even as this was a fall visit (I'm from the northeast) the lush greenery offered a warm touch to the cozy... more

This is a great little hotel! I really don't understand where the negative comments are coming from. The hotel is a vintage motel that has been wonderfully updated. My only negative comment would be that the parking spot are TINY and it takes a little effort to fit your can into one. But that's the worst thing that I could... more

I called to find my father in his room, and I wasn't sure of the room number so I asked the receptionist nicely and she was very very very very nasty to me. She said he wasn't even in the hotel even though I know he WAS there. I had to call him on his cell phone which didn't have... more

Just book an oceanfront room! Even for one night if that's all you can afford. I promise you won't regret it. Its impossible to be any closer to the waves unless they would strap your bed to a raft! We stayed two nights in an oceanfront room at the end of July 09 in the midst of a week-long trip... more

Stunning location on the beach. Charming and attractive room with balcony overlooking the ocean, and "log" fire. Beautiful courtyard garden. Welcoming staff. No restaurant, but food can be delivered or they will suggest places to go. more

I'm seriously not sure what the last poster could possibly be talking about. But I can tell you our stay was completely different. Keep in mind, this is a small motel, old school. Small rooms, small bathrooms, etc. But the fact that we were directly on the ocean was worth the small quarters. We are a couple with a 4... more

You are reading all these reviews to get an idea of what you are getting into... the bad reviews are wonderful to read because they do not represent the truth and that's wonderful because if more people knew how picturesque and out-of-this-world staying at one of the beach suites (on the sand) is then it would always be mobbed with... more

I stayed at this place based on previous reviews found on the web. I must say, I was a little disappointed. Upon arrival, the exterior sort of looks like a Super 8 hotel, only a little worse actually. The room was average with the plastic plant on t.v. and old, dorm room size fridge with circa 1980ish cream and peachy... more
