The pool house in Malibu is a wonderful place to stay, it's a very relaxing location, between the views and the comfortable furniture and bed. The kitchen was actually a highlight, after 2 weeks of honeymoon we appreciated a couple of days of cooking for ourselves and the kitchen was well appointed.
The Duke's bar and retaurant at the bottom of the hill is awesome and there is a lot to do in the Malibu area... we can highly recommend Surfing (we went with Makos they were great).
