Malibu Beach Hotels Guide :: Malibu Country Inn
While our previous Malibu Beach Hotels stops have received seriously glowing reviews, the Malibu Country Inn further up on PCH near Zuma Beach doesn't have quite the laudits as its competitors.
From the outside, the inn looks like a safe haven and why shouldn't it? It's an all-white Cape Cod-style inn built in 1943 on the bluffs overlooking Zuma Beach. However, inside is not so picturesque.
The first reviews on TripAdvisor say "Smelly rooms" and "Unchic Shabby", a diss on the Shabby Chic decor that so many Malibu residents favor. Yet there are some renovated rooms (out of 16 total) on site, so you'll have to request those. However, that's not a guarantee as some reviews allude to an incompetent staff.
And the website is full of stock photos of couples, never a good sign. Although the fact that there is a website with actual room photos is a big step in these parts. Go to the TripAdvisor page for the reviews for more info.
So, why should you stay here? The rooms are cheap around $165 a night and the inn has its own Hideaway Cafe on site. And if it's the beach you want to be close to, the place has got killer views and access to Zuma Beach.
