Just off the Pacific Coast Highway and formerly owned by an Olympic diver, this spacious home is stunning indoors and out. Built out over a hillside, its sun terraces and balconies make the most of the ocean views and its pool has the Olympic rings at the bottom in honour of the one-time owner. Decorated in tasteful neutral tones and natural fibres, it’s a reminder of its coastal location, while pops of colour come from the bright art. There's a big, sociable kitchen and an enormous dining table which seats up to ten, while bedrooms and bathrooms are elegant retreats. One bedroom is set in a separate guesthouse, with its own facilities, so it would be perfect if one or two of your party enjoy a little more independence. Out on the sweeping terrace, there's your private pool and hot tub – both with sea views – and plenty of places to sit outside and eat alfresco. Although it's quite far from the thrills of Hollywood, it's possible to drive into town for a day trip in around an hour (depending on traffic) but you're most likely to be out here for the beaches. With several of Malibu's finest on your doorstep, you won't have much trouble finding one to suit. Back at the home, entertainment comes in the form of giant outdoor chess, table tennis, and a pool table.
