Trancas Canyon Retreat in majestic Malibu hills with breathtaking pool and views

Welcome to our one-of-a-kind and tranquil getaway nestled in hills 1,000 feet above the beach.

Enjoy private use of the 2nd largest private pool in SoCal and large hot tub, along with with stunning 360 views of the ocean and Santa Monica mountains.

5 min drive down the hill to the beach - or a 20 min walk!

Your space is the luxe bottom floor of a two-unit structure, completely private and separate from the top unit, with two rooms, cozy living and work spaces, and private kitchen.

The property is unlike any place you’ve ever experienced, but it has some quirks!

You will be renting the ground floor of a huge two-unit structure, it feels like a house, not at all like an apartment.

We may or may not be in the upper unit during your stay, depends on the season. We value your privacy, and also our own, and will be invisible unless you need help with anything.

The building is surrounded on all sides by a massive koi pond, and you must step across some elegant concrete steps with water passing between - not ideal for wheelchair - but not impossible!

The breathtaking pool and hot tub are available to you all day and night, just ask for the hot tub to be turned on 30 min before you want to use it.

We are right up against the beautiful Santa Monica mountains, and share the space with many creatures, many you can see easily around the property - frogs, turtles, hawks, hummingbirds - as well as the occasional mouse. All the critters are harmless and part of the deep Malibu experience.

Beautiful Home and Property!
Absolutely stunning. The house itself and all the modern art that fills it is so chic and fun. The property is beautiful—from the house & pool area, koi moat, and of course to the view at the top of the ground’s little uphill hike. Plus, the beds were super comfy lol So happy I found this place to surprise and celebrate my fiancé on his bday weekend and we hope to have another staycation here in the future!
