Oceanfront on Dry Sandy Carbon Beach - Sandpiper

If you desire peace and tranquility with a beachfront location and nearby amenities on your upcoming visit to Malibu, look no further!

We are a hidden gem on the one-mile shoreline of Carbon Beach, affectionately described by the locals as “Billionaire’s Beach” … home to many celebrities. What makes this a highly sought-after vacation rental? Location, location, location! Our beachfront units have unobstructed panoramic ocean views of Catalina Island and The Queens Necklace; coastline views of the Santa Monica Bay to the north and down to Palos Verdes look like a “necklace of lights” in the evening. We are just yards from the famous Surfrider Beach, Malibu Pier, the Adamson House and a range of restaurants, modestly priced to exclusive, including Nobu. We are also close to three contiguous outdoor shopping marts with Whole Foods, Starbucks, world class retail shopping, additional restaurants, yoga, fitness and meditation studios. Nearby there are hiking and biking trails, surf lessons and paddle board rentals.

This 1-bedroom oceanfront unit, decorated shabby beach chic, sleeps 4 and features expansive ocean views from the living room and kitchen. A large private deck sits above the sand so you can sip coffee at sunrise or cocktails at sunset. The beach is steps away from the door of your vacation rental, for hours of play and sun. There are hardwood floors throughout. The kitchen is fully equipped and accented with stainless steel appliances and granite counters.

The rental has 1 bedroom with a queen size bed and HD flat screen TV, the living room has a large sleeper sofa, HD flat screen TV and stereo with ipod connection.
Amenities include, WiFi, linens, towels, beach chairs, coffee maker, microwave and gas barbecue. There are laundry facilities on site for your convenience. Included with the rental is a one car garage and parking for an extra car. In addition, the property is gated for extra privacy.

We are pet friendly and there is a pet fee.

Disappointed with the property, location, weather, and lack of communication.

The place looks nice in the pictures, but the reality was completely different.Ants were everywhere- i have a video that i can share , the pull-out couch was extremely uncomfortable, impossible to sleep on it and water was splashing directly onto the balcony.On our last night, there were road closures and an expected mudslide. When we called the emergency line, they advised us to leave the area immediately if we had a flight to catch at LAX the next day. We had to gather our belongings quickly and evacuate. I reached out to the owner for guidance but never received a response.If you're dreaming of a stay in Malibu, you may want to think twice before booking this place.

Beautiful view!

Absolutely gorgeous location with an amazing view right on the beach. Morning sunrise was stunning. The property was all we needed and just sitting on the porch with the sound of the waves was so relaxing. The pier was a great place to eat and just down the road were other great places. It was a bit hard to find at night but the traffic was usually light.

Location, location, location

If you’re looking for an oceanfront vacation, this is the place for you. If the ocean was any closer you’d need a bathing suit to eat breakfast. This cozy apartment is ideal for two. It’s an old building but well maintained. It’s located right on the Pacific Coast Highway but road noise was not an issue. The only noise is the sound of the Pacific Ocean.

Upstairs Neighbors

The property was very nice, great location, clean, and felt safe. However, the neighbors upstairs either had a very large dog running and jumping around or an adult was moving and stomping/running around all hours of the night making sleep difficult. (I know this is not the fault of the VRBO). But for the price I/we were hoping for a little bit more "quiet" at night.

Angel

Angel was on site to set us up with all we needed. He was a tremendous help during our whole stay and went above and beyond for us. The condo its self was ok. Had a gas leak issue, which Angel fixed immediately. If I stay in this complex again I may stay in a different condo, but my decision to pick this complex again will be because of Angel and how wonderful he is.

The perfect location

We had to be in the LA area for a wedding, and also wanted to enjoy the beach. Staying here gave us exactly what we needed right up the street from the Malibu Village, within 15 minutes of our venue for the wedding, looking out at the ocean from our apartment. Really enjoyed our stay.
