Fodor's Expert Review Malibu Beach Inn
22878 Pacific Coast Hwy., Malibu, California, 90265, USA Fodor's Choice
Set right on exclusive Carbon Beach in a stretch known as Billionaire's Beach, Malibu's hideaway for the super-rich remains the room to nab along the coast, with an ultrachic look thanks to designer Waldo Fernandez and an upscale restaurant and wine bar perched over the Pacific. Third-floor ocean-view rooms, with wood-beam ceilings and private balconies, are instantly calming and definitely romantic. Feather beds, crashing waves, inset lighting, original artwork, and custom-made furniture add up to designer-perfect rooms. The inn's Carbon Beach Club presents California cuisine and a well-curated wine list. The hotel has an on-site day spa, and for a fee you can access the Malibu Health Club across the highway. Beach loungers, umbrellas, and towels are provided. On holiday weekends, multinight stays are required.
