Pet-Friendly Vacation Rentals in Malibu
Malibu is one of the best places in California to travel with a dog. The canyon trails, coastal paths, and wide-open beach mornings are as good for them as they are for you. The challenge is finding a luxury home that actually welcomes pets, not just tolerates them with a hefty deposit and a long list of restrictions.
We’ve confirmed pet-friendly status at five of our Malibu properties, and each one offers the kind of space, gated grounds, big yards, acreage, that makes traveling with your dog feel easy rather than stressful. Here are our pet-friendly vacation rentals in Malibu.
Starlite Malibu
Three Acres of Private Gardens Above Paradise Cove
Starlite Malibu sits on three acres of manicured gardens above Paradise Cove. Three acres. That’s more room than most dogs get at a city dog park, and it’s your private run for the duration of the stay. Five bedrooms, ocean views, chic interiors, a pool, and enough outdoor space that your dog can roam while you watch the coastline from the terrace. The grounds are the star here. Manicured but generous, with paths through the gardens and shade under mature trees.
Latigo Gardens
A Calm Canyon Setting with Easy Indoor-Outdoor Flow
Latigo Gardens is in Latigo Canyon, a quiet, secluded setting up the hill from the coast. The canyon environment is naturally peaceful. No heavy traffic, no sirens, just ocean breezes and open sky. The property has open grounds, a pool, and a Spanish modern layout with indoor-outdoor flow that lets your dog move between spaces easily. Four bedrooms, ocean views, and the kind of calm setting that high-energy dogs and anxious dogs alike tend to settle right into.
Wine Trail Estate
Seven Bedrooms on Vineyard Grounds with Room to Run
Wine Trail Estate is our most spacious Malibu dog-friendly rental. Seven bedrooms across two homes on vineyard-adjacent grounds. The property’s brand-new renovation includes stunning outdoor spaces and enough land that multiple dogs can run without anyone worrying. The wine country setting also puts you near Malibu’s best canyon trails. Ideal for large families traveling with pets.
Sea Star Modern
An Architect-Designed Estate with a Separate Guesthouse
Sea Star Modern is an architectural estate with six en suite bedrooms and a separate guesthouse overlooking Zuma Beach. The guesthouse is worth noting for pet owners. It gives you a separate space to set up your dog’s crate, bowls, and bed without cluttering the main living area. The property is pet-friendly by policy and by design: the layout has easy outdoor access from multiple rooms.
Malibu Beach Oasis
A Gated Blufftop Acre with Contained Outdoor Space
Malibu Beach Oasis sits on a full acre of bluff in a gated community. The gating adds real peace of mind for dog owners. Six bedrooms, a pool, brand-new contemporary architecture, and the security of knowing your dog has a contained outdoor space with ocean views for days.
Dog-Friendly Spots Near Your Rental
Leo Carrillo State Park sits in western Malibu and allows dogs on certain trails. The creek trail is a favorite for its shade and gentle terrain.
Westward Beach / Point Dume welcomes dogs on leash along the beach below the bluffs. The walk along the base of Point Dume is scenic and relatively uncrowded on weekdays.
Malibu Creek State Park allows leashed dogs on the main trails. The scenery shifts from coastal to inland canyon, a nice change of pace from beach walks.
Zuma Beach restrictions vary by season, so check local rules before heading out. Early mornings tend to be the most relaxed time to bring a dog.
