Malibu Los Angeles Holiday Rental Guide - Malibu Vacation Villas
Malibu is an iconic district of Los Angeles about 20 miles northwest of Los Angeles. This celebrity-filled, seaside town is a must-see or a must-stay, if you have the time. This adorable town has around 14,000 full-time residents. You have to be quite rich to live in this upscale neighborhood. Use a Malibu Los Angeles holiday rental guide to get the scoop on the city. Malibu is a 21-mile strip stretching across the Pacific Coast and offering breathtaking views. Malibu is all about nature, views and, of course, its residents. Vacationers stay in hotels or Malibu vacation villas.
Malibu is also known as BU by locals. It is a laid back seaside town with many wealthy celebrities. Malibu is known, first and foremost, for its breathtaking pacific coast. Malibu does not have a real center, per say. Vacationers go there with a Malibu Los Angeles holiday rental guide in hand, in attempts to see or mingle with stars or just to relax before breathtaking oceanfront views from the wonderful Malibu vacation villas found in the Malibu Los Angeles holiday rental guide. The beauty of the mountains plunging into the sea is magnificent. The beaches of Malibu are renowned but Malibu is much more than that. It offers a world class museum, plenty of gourmet restaurants and shops where you will be happy to spend your money.
Observe Breathtaking Views
Drive along the highway to see the incredible beauty of the seascape. Whether you are visiting Malibu just for the day or are staying in Malibu vacation villas, you must visit Point Dune Preserve (www.parks.ca.gov). Take a short walk around and witness the gratifying breathtaking view of Santa Monica Bay. If the day is clear enough, you will be able to see the Catalina Islands.
Dine on the Beach at Sunset
Contrary to what we may think, dining in a beach restaurant with a view of the sunset is not an easy task. While it is easy to find restaurants on the beach, the problem is in that Malibu faces south, not west, therefore, making sunsets hard to see. You will need to find a restaurant facing west. The Malibu Los Angeles holiday rental guide recommends the Sunset Restaurant (6800 Westward Beach Road, 310-589-10 07, Thesunsetrestaurant.com. Sure, the food is good and affordable, but the view is extraordinary!
Dining and Spotting Celebrities in Malibu
Vacationers in Malibu appreciate the natural beauty but they also enjoy Malibu’s great restaurants. If you like Sushi, are not on a tight budget and would like to catch a glimpse of a celebrity, head to the famous NOBU Malibu. NOBU is an upscale Japanese restaurant featured in the Malibu Los Angeles holiday rental guide with other locations such as New York and Miami Beach. NOBU Malibu is located at 3835 Cross Creek Road, 310-589-1007, Nobumatsuhisa.com). Expect to pay around $60 per person, not including alcohol.

If you plan on hitting the west coast for a coastal tour or especially if you are spending any time in one of LA’s vacation rentals, spend a day cruising around Highland Park. Not too long ago this area was teaming with dollar stores and auto shops, but in recent years it has undergone a makeover and has become a new popular district filled with rich culture. Today this district is busy with a trendy crowd occupying the bars, restaurants, boutiques and even apartments.
The area has really cleaned up its act and its streets to become a positive addition to both the locals and visitors of LA’s accommodations. The area has been known for a few reasons before the renovation. It was the location of Quenton Tarantino’s “Reservoir Dogs”, it was the first town to be annexed by Los Angeles, and also has been famed for its old Victorian style homes which have become quite desirable in recent years. With a lively nightlife scene and a busy lunch and happy hour, there really isn’t a bad time to check out Highland Park during your west coast vacation.
