The sand begins just beyond the glass. At Malibu Sand Suite #14 - Oceanside Suite, the distance between your living space and the Pacific Ocean is measured in footsteps, not miles. This is a residential stay on one of Malibu's most coveted stretches of coastline, where the rhythm of the waves sets the tempo for everything that follows. The suite opens directly toward the ocean, offering the kind of unobstructed coastal proximity that most Malibu visitors only glimpse from Pacific Coast Highway.
The suite itself is designed for comfort rather than spectacle, with a layout that prioritizes livability and light. Managed through Stay Awhile, the property operates as a fully furnished vacation rental, giving guests the independence of a private residence paired with the ease of a managed hospitality experience. The space functions as a true home base along the shore, with the essentials of daily life handled so that your attention stays where it belongs: on the water, the light, the unhurried passage of a coastal afternoon.
Malibu's identity has always been shaped by its geography, a narrow ribbon of land caught between the Santa Monica Mountains and the sea. From this stretch of shoreline, the broader landscape unfolds naturally. The beaches here are less crowded than those closer to Santa Monica, and the surrounding area offers access to local dining, roadside farm stands, and the rugged trails of the mountains just inland. The Pacific Coast Highway connects you to the wider Malibu community, from Surfrider Beach and the pier to the quieter coves further north, but the real appeal of this location is how little you need to leave it.
What stays with you after a few days at this suite is not a single dramatic moment but a feeling of recalibration. Morning light filling the room. The sound of waves reaching you before you fully wake. An evening spent watching the sun drop below the horizon line from your own threshold. Malibu Sand Suite #14 offers something increasingly rare along this coastline: genuine proximity to the Pacific, lived in rather than observed.

What gets you here isn't the idea of a beach suite — it's the proximity, the almost absurd closeness to the water on Carbon Beach, where the ocean isn't a backdrop but a roommate. The interiors lean into that relationship without overdoing it: sandy tones, natural wood, plush textiles that feel considered rather than curated, and those floor-to-ceiling windows that make the Pacific less a view and more a presence. There's a quietness to the design that lets the setting do the emotional work. Morning coffee on the private terrace with salt air and wave sound is the kind of ritual that recalibrates you without trying. It's a place that suits people who want Malibu without performance — the real texture of coastal living, where the day's rhythm is set by the tide rather than a schedule.

Loved this little apartment! Beautiful section of beach and so many healthy restaurants close by. Close to some spectacular hikes. You get to watch both sunrise and sunset from the beach. Management was lovely. And that fancy toilet with the heated seat… amazing haha.

I found stay awhile to be better than any hotel ever. Not only was it 2 steps from the beach it was super quiet peaceful felt like i needed a getaway from a busy day and thats exactly what i wanted and thats exactly what I got. Hosts were responsive yet respected space and went above and beyond if I needed something. I felt right at home and spoiled myself for 4 nights!

This was the second time my wife and I stayed at Stay Awhile in Malibu and it is by far one of the best locations to stay. We have already decided that this will be a place we always come back to. The staff is always friendly and they go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need and will even accommodate extras upon request. Highly recommend staying here if you want to feel the full luxury lifestyle of Malibu.

Beautiful stay. Very luxurious amenities and well worth the price. We highly enjoyed it for our mini-honeymoon.
