"Villa Bella Malibu was the perfect California getaway. With its exceptional decor, outstanding amenities, and stunning view terrace, you'll find that once you check in, you won't want to check out. What's more peaceful than sitting outside in the golden sunshine, listing to wave crashing along the beach? Honestly, we can't wait to return." Kristin and Ben

I was lucky enough to stay at Villa Bella from May 28 to June 4, 2010. What a delight! The villa is on a small hill so the view of the water is fantastic. It's a short walk down to the beach which we took advantage of almost daily to watch the surfers. The home is pristine with every detail through out and every convenience you can possibly want. Quite often I would just sit on the hammock and read, take a steam shower or float in the hot tub with a glass of wine. The cool nights offered a great reason to light a fire in one of the three fireplaces and the warm afternoons with cool breezes made all the decks a perfect spot for a cup of tea or an afternoon cocktail :-) I am always concerned about bed comfort because of my bad back - no worries here. The beds are dreamy! If you cook, then you will feel blessed by the kitchen and all it has to offer. I would not be doing this home justice if I did not mention the garden. I truly felt like I was in Europe - so much privacy and so beautiful.

We took advantage of the proximity to Santa Barbara and drove there for the day - so easy, no problem even over a long weekend when you would expect really bad traffic.

I would not miss the opportunity to stay in Villa Bella again and again, it was truly a decadent vacation without the hassle of a hotel. I even had a small BBQ with some friends I have in the area and found it hard to get people to leave at the end of the night! Partly because of the fabulous massive TV in the living room (the lakers game was on!).

I live in Singapore and have travelled all over the world and have stayed in some of the nicest hotels. I would rate my stay at Villa Bella in the top five. It was like staying at a five star hotel. Oh and the owners are pretty great too!

My husband and I have visited Villa Bella Malibu twice now, and I have no doubt we will return many times. For us, this location provides the perfect combination of activity and rest. Visits to the nearby Getty, long walks on the beach, dinner at Geoffry's, or quiet afternoons napping, dipping in the hot tub and watching movies in the living room which converts to a fantastic theater room, all make for a truly perfect vacation. Kathryn's creativity can be seen in every detail of design and decor in this house. We are always inspired by the overal ambience of the place and it's lovely location which draws us to return.

Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your beautiful Villa for the second time. We had such a relaxing time exploring the different beaches and hiking the nature trails, shopping and fine dining. We will be back

Truly a beautiful and luxurious home in a fantastic setting. The sweeping ocean views and the beach just steps away make this home great place for a relaxing getaway, and the owners are the perfect hosts. We didn't want to leave!

Caroline and I wanted to convey our deep appreciation to you for allowing us to enjoy your beautiful home!!!!
I don't think the smiles on our faces will wear off anytime soon. Best wishes, Daniel and Caroline...

Thank you for a lovely stay! Your Villa Bella Malibu is just gorgeous. Sunsets and Sunrises were awesome! It is so relaxing here. Blessing to you for the New Year.

Thank you so much for the wonderful stay at your beautiful house. We had such a great time. The views from the house were spectacular. We feel so lucky that you rented it to us. It was great to be able to visit with Katie and just relax in such a beautiful atmosphere. Thanks again.
