The beach view is also visible from the kitchen, where you can admire the waves crashing as you cook a full dinner or brew yourself fresh coffee with the french press. There is even a dishwasher, so you never have to clean during your stay!
Enjoy a full-size bathroom for a stress-free way to freshen up and take advantage of the washer and dryer so that your clothes are always clean.
And while the suite itself is enough to have you booking your trip right away, it’s the private patio that really steals the show.
The patio provides panoramic views of the ocean, perfect for watching the sunset, a barbeque so that guests can enjoy an outdoor dining experience, and even a personal pool to cool off on hot days.

This Townhouse has three, king-size bedrooms that are equally appealing, but only one lucky couple will have access to the master suite.
While all the bedrooms have access to their own private bathrooms, only the master suite has a wall made up entirely of windows to provide endless views overlooking the ocean.
But fear not, as everyone can enjoy the views of the ocean from the outdoor patio, complete with its own fireplace to keep warm on cold nights and spacious furniture suitable for the whole group.
And to make things even better, there is a common area below the townhouse that provides immediate access to the beach and offers games like ping-pong and Jenga to keep guests entertained.
With a design similar to the Malibu Townhouse, this Waterfront Townhouse is an expensive place to rest your head – but the views of the ocean make it all worth it.
The townhouse has a contemporary style that makes you feel right at home, and the touches of navy blue throughout its whitewashed theme really bring the place to life.
This rental also has a loft, so one of the three spacious bedrooms is located upstairs overlooking the downstairs living space as well as the Pacific Ocean.
Speaking of bedrooms, each room boasts a heavenly, king-size bed and a full private bath so that guests don’t need to wait in line to freshen up.
When you are not sitting on the couch, taking in the views of the ocean as you snuggle up by the fireplace, you can be cooking a meal for your group in the full-size kitchen.

The second bedroom has a single bed with its own private bathroom and access to a small workspace so individuals can bunker down and enjoy some quiet time alone.
Both bathrooms in this cozy home are full-size, and you will have a hard time pulling yourself away from the massive shower with its huge rainfall showerhead.
As beautiful as this home is, with the sandy shore right at your backdoor, you’ll likely end up spending most of your time outside.

Head down the back steps and you are right on the beach!
Nestled high above the famous La Costa Beach, the La Costa Beach House is more like a beachfront mansion, and there is no denying the sense of luxury you get the moment you walk through the doors.
Every inch of this place is made up of designer furniture, and the interior design is simply out of this world. It is nearly impossible to describe the beauty of this place to the fullest, so make sure you check out some of the photos on Airbnb.
But such a grand rental doesn’t come cheap. The cost of a night here can exceed over three thousand dollars, making it nearly impossible for the average person to enjoy.
However, if you have a group of ten people to rent it out with, the cost becomes a lot more reasonable.
And this is the kind of place that is worth the splurge. Huge designer couches wrap around a massive fireplace that warms the whole house on chilly nights.
The back wall is made up entirely of windows, guaranteeing a view of the beach whether you are kicking back in the living room, sitting out on the patio, or enjoying dinner in the dining room.

And when you have three separate outdoor spaces, you are bound to spend much of your time walking through the garden, taking in the ocean views from the lounge area, or enjoying dinner overlooking the water.
Some of the homes along Malibu Beach are no joke and this contemporary beach house on Carbon Beach is the perfect example of that.
Coming in at a whopping $14,500 a night, you have to have a lot of money lying around in order to score a night at this mansion of a villa.
But this place is Malibu Beach-lifestyle in a nutshell, and when it’s nestled atop stilts overlooking “Billionaire’s Beach,” it is bound to cost a pretty penny.
Live like a celebrity as you spend the night in a home that has made the cover of several home design magazines for its spectacular design.
You will find contemporary art peppered throughout the home, adding more beauty to an already breathtaking home, and the designer furniture is the furthest thing from an eyesore.
There really is no way to properly describe just how impressive this home really is, so you have to check out the photos on Airbnb.
Just know that you will have endless views of the ocean at every turn, the interior design will leave you speechless, and the five bedrooms boast their own unique style and private, ensuite bathrooms.
Steering away from the insanely priced rentals that make up most of Malibu Beach, the Beachfront Paradise is still not the cheapest accommodation, but it is a great alternative to a $1,000+ rental.

This one-bedroom suite is a dream come true for couples looking to spend some quality time together, or for individuals seeking a quick getaway to the beach.
You know you are about to walk into a modern masterpiece before you even enter the glass doors, but it becomes even more apparent once you are inside.
This is a studio, so everything is available to you in one big open space and while you do not have a full kitchen, the kitchenette is fully stocked to accommodate your needs.
But you probably won’t spend that much time inside, considering the scenic outdoor patio fully equipped with lounge chairs for relaxing evenings spent taking in the views of the ocean.
New to the Airbnb community, this Charming Guesthouse has quickly made a name for itself as one of the best Airbnbs in Malibu Beach, thanks to its undeniable charm and breathtaking views.
Although this home is not located right on the beach, it is just a short drive away from all of the excitement Malibu has to offer, and the affordable price makes it impossible to pass up.
The quiet neighborhood is enough to make you feel hidden away, but the private deck overlooking the mountains takes the feeling of peaceful seclusion a step further.
The living room has a simple design in the best way possible, with white decor and colorful accents that invite you to relax. Not to mention the grand fireplace that is ready for use.

Sit on these comfy couches while you stare out at the water, or hop in one of the hanging lounge chairs and peacefully sway while you take it all in.
The backsplash in the kitchen is enough to leave you mesmerized, but one look at the industrial style stove with a double oven will leave the average cook in tears…of joy of course!
Both bedrooms have cozy, queen-size mattresses that will make you feel like you are sleeping on a cloud, and two full baths make it easy to freshen up.
Throw in access to the community swimming pool and a staircase leading right to the beach, and you may never want to leave!
Overlooking Malibu’s beautiful Colony Beach, the Malibu Beachhouse is more than just a beachfront property – it’s a staple to the town’s history, making your stay a one-of-a-kind experience.

Both of the bedrooms give off the ultimate beachy vibe, with charming wallpaper that dates back to the early 1900s and wood-paneled ceilings that complement the ocean views.
There are multiple outdoor spaces to enjoy, and you can’t go wrong with spending time in any of them. But if the water is really calling to you, just head down the stairs to your own private beach.
Plus, the hosts are gracious enough to let guests use any or all of the five sea kayaks located on the property for a quick way to get out on the water.

After a long day, head out to the lounge chairs on your back deck to watch the sunset and make a quick getaway to the beach below you whenever you like.
Another Carbon Beach gem is the SA Beach Suite, and not just because of its impeccable views of the ocean.
Part of what makes this suite stand out is the way it veers away from the typical beach style of white interiors with blue accents and leans more towards a style focused on woodwork.
You will notice the wooden details of the dining room table, the case the surrounds the TV, and the blinds on the windows. Before you even enter the house, of course, you’ll be stunned by its gorgeous, wooden exterior.
But just because this suite has a focus on wood doesn’t make it rustic in the slightest. Everything about this place follows a simplistic, modern style that you can’t help but fall in love with.

Plus, there are smaller patios that are peppered around the grounds that allow you to take in the views of the ocean and the mountains from a different perspective.
You can even admire the views from the stylish dining room, thanks to the giant wall-to-ceiling windows that wrap around the corner of the house.
The same views can be enjoyed while you cook up a tasty meal on the restaurant-grade stove, or brew yourself a cup of coffee using the french press.

Once you walk inside, you will be even more impressed by the balance of simplicity and luxury.
