Look no further for a blissfully relaxing vacation home on the outskirts of LA – as this villa reveals ocean views, capturing the magic of the Malibu sunsets to pure perfection, as the sky turns orange, pink and then starlit blue. You'll appreciate the serenity of the Palisades Highlands, with just enough activities to keep all types of personalities entertained. Whether it's mountain biking, nature trails, water sports, strolls on the beach or simply chilling out that tickles your fancy most – this place will have you sorted from morning through to nightfall. The home itself boasts both peace and privacy, with chic, beachy interiors finishing off every room with style – think neutral hues of beige and brown with high-quality wooden furnishings. The private stone garden is a sanctuary in itself as the calming sound of falling water and the beauty of real lemon trees makes for a truly sublime spot to enjoy your morning coffee with nature. You're within walking distance from the Getta Villa and many world-class surfing beaches, so while you probably won't want to tear yourself away from this haven, there are plenty of things to see and do beyond the residence that you simply shouldn't miss out on here.
