"you are sleeping in a pod, read the fine print. Feels very unsecure. you'll be lucky to find your room, it's the equivalent to an Escape house. I had to walk around the back and wander around a room under construction to figure out where's my room. This place is a fire hazard for sure!!"

The Surfrider Malibu

The Surfrider Malibu

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful place to stay! Right across from Surfrider's Beach. The rooftop bar had a wonderful view, the room was spacious and clean, super comfortable. Staff was very nice. It's pricey but makes sense for the location, the only thing is amenities could use some upgrades. They let you put in a complimentary coffee order the night before but really it's only drip coffee, if you want a latte or anything like that you'll have to pay for it yourself. We also had to call to remind them about our order. Similarly, I went to celebrate my engagement and had called ahead of time for a bottle of champagne which they did not include upon arrival, I had to call again after I arrived to request it again. They also didn't include my partners name on the welcome letter. All of these are minor grievances but something to consider if you're going to celebrate a special occasion. "
