Magnificent Malibu Vacation Home Luxury Residence

Set in the quiet neighborhood known as Serra Retreat, this luxury vacation rental is close to the beach, the Perenchio golf course, the Getty Villa and more. But its acres of manicured gardens, imported furnishings and custom finishes give the villa the feel of a private European estate. As you sweep through the front gates and up the stone driveway, you’re welcomed by an 18th-century fountain, sculpted hedges and flickering gas lamps. The house opens to a terrace with sitting and dining areas, and chaise longues around a pool and hot tub. A barbecue and sound system make entertaining a snap, while a cabana with built-in seating and a fireplace lets you linger outdoors into the evening. On cooler evenings, move inside to the well-appointed media room. Exquisite details such as limestone and walnut flooring, hand-plastered walls, imported fireplace mantels and custom ceiling moldings present a look and feel of a French chateau. But the furnishings and artwork are sleek and contemporary, creating a glamorous mix of the past and present. The open-plan living and dining rooms open to the terrace through a folding glass wall, encouraging guests to wander throughout, while pairs of French doors in the fully equipped kitchen lead outside. The five bedrooms can accommodate up to ten guests. There are three bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms: two with king beds, including the master suite, and one with a queen bed. The other two bedrooms are perfect for a family traveling with children, with queen beds and a shared bathroom. You could easily spend your stay recharging amid the property’s expansive lawns, 200-bush rose garden and charming orchards. But if you’d like to explore greater Los Angeles, car service is available to take you to the nearby beaches, golf courses, museums and more. Home to plenty of celebrities, Malibu offers everything from canyon trails and laid-back surf breaks to upscale boutiques and honeymoon-worthy oceanfront restaurants, letting you decide what kind of holiday you want.
