About this property

Relaxing Topanga getaway: remodeled kitchen/bath, pool, Jacuzzi, close to beach!

Experience the charm of our beautifully remodeled Topanga guesthouse, where modern updates meet cottage style. With a brand-new kitchen featuring a dishwasher and a refreshed bathroom, plus freshly painted interiors, this guesthouse offers both comfort and style. Vaulted ceilings, cozy French doors, and mountain-view decks create a serene atmosphere, while a cozy loft bedroom with a queen bed and a living room with a pull-out queen sofa bed provide ample space.

Step outside to enjoy the waterfall pool, year-round Jacuzzi, and lush rose garden. Nestled in the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area, our property is ideal for hiking or biking along scenic trails, yet just minutes from the beach. Malibu is a 15-minute drive, Santa Monica is 15 minutes away, and the beach is only 8 minutes down the road—making this the perfect place to enjoy both mountains and ocean in one day.

We pride ourselves on maintaining a pristine guesthouse, ensuring it's spotless and ready for your arrival. Please note, the pool is unheated from October 1st to June 1st, though the Jacuzzi is available year-round. Our property is in a peaceful neighborhood, so we kindly ask that guests refrain from hosting parties or loud gatherings. Enjoy a tranquil getaway surrounded by nature's beauty and just a short drive from the best of Malibu and Santa Monica.

A Hidden Gem

Our stay with Rachel was exactly what my husband and I were looking for! The guest house is clean, comfy, private - and the gated backyard area was perfect for our dog. Rachel was friendly, communicative and prompt whenever we needed anything or had a question. The neighborhood is secluded and private. We felt like we were a world away from LA. Highly recommended!

Exclusive guest house in perfect location

We came with our two children to spend a few days in L.A. The guest house was well equiped, tiny but charming and the pool/jacuzzi made use feel privileged. The location was great to visit the city, hike in the canyon or go to the beach. We would go back with no hesitation!

So peaceful

I loved staying here with my 3 children. It was not too far from the beach, but tucked away enough that it was quiet and very relaxing without the busy vibe of LA. The hosts were extremely kind and attentive, but also gave us our space to have great family time. I hope to be back someday!!

Pool cold water should be advertised as such also hot tub. Shower a joke & bathroom way outdated. No decent soap etc. Rugs filthy. Couldn’t get xfinity to work. Neighbor dogs barking in the night. Terrible hide a bed had to sleep on floor. No amenities. Way overpriced.

Great Guest house to stay - with pool and spa

This is my first time using Vbro as I have used the "other' one mostly in the past but do not travel much. Well. of all the places I HAVE stayed at, this was the BEST! A nice private guest house with a full kitchen ( important to me) and the pool, spa and semi private lush landscape just outside the large view French doors. Check in was flawless as we check out. The queen bed up in the loft was very comfortable and the main living room and dining area were nice as well. Rachel was not home most of the time but we communicated when needed and she was very responsive to a a minor issue and helped set up the spa remotely, until I figured it out. Overall a 9 our of 10 which is far better than ANY other place I have stayed.

Wonderful Experience

My wife and I stayed at the property with our dog for two nights. This property was perfect, away from the chaos of Santa Monica and Malibu, nestled in the quiet mountains of the Canyon… but only a few minutes drive to everything. We were able to enjoy all that the property had to offer.

Beautiful location away from the big city.

Absolutely beautiful location. We arrived on a sunny day and were graciously greeted by our hosts. Great pool and hottub set up and we had everything that we needed at the property. There was a landslide which blocked the direct South road to Topanga from the southern highway. We were rerouted (by google) to take the Las Flores road to get to Topanga. It ended up being a wonderful diversion and we got to see some amazing properties on the way. Would actually recommend taking that route at least once if you are new to the area.

The guest house was clean and well maintained. One suggestion would be to add a few well placed landscaping lights to guide the way in after dark.

Sweet guest house

Photos are accurate. The pool is rimmed with rock and mimics a natural pool more than a turquoise rectangle. My son jumped in the cold water both afternoons we were there. We both enjoyed the hot tub. Screen shot directions or commit to memory. Cell service in the canyon is spotty.
