Beautiful area

Guests love this home’s scenic location.
Monte Nido is nestled in the Santa Monica Mountains between Calabasas and Malibu, 5 minutes away from Pepperdine University in Malibu. You can walk to the Backbone trail head from our yard. The guest house has a private entrance, full kitchen, bath and french doors that open up to a private patio with a fountain. There is also a private deck for star gazing and afternoon naps. Perfect for hiking, biking, surfing, and relaxation. There are no streetlights or sidewalks. It is truly paradise.

The space
This is a upscale and impeccably clean studio guesthouse. We have a Breville coffeemaker with pods. Kitchen has all you need to prepare a meal and eat on the patio or deck. You should be prepared for wildlife sighting when you walk around the neighborhood. Our linen is organic. We have WiFi and cable. There is a lot of original art pieces in the guest house including the bathroom vanity. We made this space to be as inviting and beautiful as we could.

Other things to note
We are close to the beach as well as Calabasas/Agoura. This is a perfect place to relax after a busy day or a great place just to hang out. We have a million dollar view in a very peaceful setting. If you are visiting Pepperdine we are about 5 miles inland and much more reasonable than Malibu hotel prices. We proudly fly the rainbow 🌈 flag. Everyone is welcome here.

Neighborhood highlights

We are literally next to protected State Park land. Malibu Creek State Park is less than a mile away. Our neighborhood is very safe. You will hear birds, owls, coyotes, crickets and enjoy a beautiful night sky. There are no sidewalks or street lights. The wild parrots like to make an entrance every morning and you can watch them from the patio as they visit the bird feeder along with many species of birds that live her and some that migrate during the year.
