Insider's Guide to Malibu

Malibu, California Landscape

We asked local luxury travel agent Elisa Brown to share her favorite Malibu spots for weekend escapes

Best Hotels

Nobu Ryokan for exclusivity and privacy and Malibu Beach Inn for luxe Cali vibes.

Malibu Beach Inn

Best Eats

I love Carbon Beach Club for breakfast, Malibu Farm for lunch, and Nobu, Taverna Tony, and Tramonto Bistro for dinner. If you want to shoot over to Santa Monica for dinner I recommend Giorgio Baldi
