The Surfrider Villa by Stay Awhile Villas opens with the kind of ease that only comes from a home designed around the rhythm of the coast. The architecture leans casual and sun-bleached, a residence built for days that unfold without agenda, where the threshold between indoors and out feels more like a suggestion than a boundary. Light fills the living spaces generously, and the overall atmosphere carries the unhurried confidence of a place that knows exactly what it is: a villa for guests who want proximity to the water without sacrificing comfort or privacy.
The layout is spacious and well-considered, with living areas that invite gathering and bedrooms that offer genuine retreat. The kitchen is fully equipped for those who prefer to cook at their own pace, stocking the counter with market finds and letting meals happen organically. Outdoor spaces extend the living area further, offering room to stretch out under open sky, whether that means morning coffee in the quiet or late-afternoon drinks as the light softens. The Surfrider Villa is managed by Stay Awhile Villas, a collection known for curating residences that feel personal rather than transactional, with attentive service and local knowledge woven into the guest experience.
The surrounding landscape shapes the days here as much as the villa itself. The coast is close, and the pull of the ocean is constant. Whether you spend your mornings in the water or simply watching it from a distance, the proximity to surf and sand gives the stay its defining texture. The area rewards exploration on foot or by car, with local dining, shops, and natural beauty within easy reach.
What stays with you after a visit to The Surfrider Villa is the tempo of it all. There is no lobby, no check-in ritual, no curated itinerary waiting on a nightstand. Instead, there is a home that feels immediately familiar, a coastline that sets the pace, and the rare luxury of days that belong entirely to you.

What registers first isn't the design or the address — it's the way the indoor space refuses to separate itself from the outdoors. Floor-to-ceiling windows pull the Santa Monica Mountains into the living room, and the layout flows so naturally onto the terraces that you lose track of where the house ends and the coast begins. The palette here takes its cues honestly from sand and sea, which sounds predictable until you're actually sitting in it, feeling how the tones quiet your mind rather than compete for attention. There's a lived-in ease to the place that suits people who want Malibu without performing Malibu — the kind of stay where a MOKE ride to Nobu or a morning walk along the pier feels organic, not orchestrated. Private beach access just steps away makes everything else feel optional. It's the rare property where proximity to the Pacific isn't a selling point but a rhythm you fall into.

Stunning , jaw-dropping view! We had an amazing time at this gorgeous retreat. Star gazing and watching surfers from the deck, walking the beach, short drive to hike Escondido Falls, stroll to dinner and the grocery store. We even had a celebrity sighting at the local gym (access comes with the rental). Magical, highly recommend.

Beautiful location in Malibu where you sleep with waves crashing just below the house. Views from the deck are incredible as it is perched out over the water with a large beach to the left (East). The house was spacious with a well stocked kitchen including multiple sets of various dishes, glasses, and kitchen equipment. Bathroom was clean with plenty of towels and also hotel slippers. We also really enjoyed exploring the area in the Moke vehicle which was easy to operate. Plenty of restaurants and retail shops near the house to enjoy. The Stay Awhile team was also very responsive when we were checking in and out and didn't even need to chat with them on any issues or questions throughout the stay as the info provided covered almost everything. Note that the beach area below is rocky, but you can either walk to the large sandy beach area to the left if the tide is low enough or find a small spot to the right on the small public beach assess. Would definitely book this place again.
