Malibu Beach Inn

19 Best Luxury and Boutique Hotels to Book in Los Angeles - AFAR

"Perched literally steps from the sand with all 47 rooms and suites offering private balconies overlooking crashing surf, the property evokes a private beach house through handmade white oak furnishings and curated contemporary art. Guests have direct access to a private stretch of beach and membership-level use of a neighboring wellness center’s spa and fitness facilities, while interiors emphasize natural materials and coastal calm—Italian linens, teak accents—and a relaxed service model that makes ocean sounds part of the sleeping experience." - Chris Dong
