9 Things to be Thankful for When You Live in Malibu

Malibu is a piece of California paradise. We’ve got stunning canyon trails, golden beaches, and phenomenal views of the Pacific. Needless to say, when you live or work in Malibu, there’s no shortage of things to be grateful for. Here are just 9:

1. The Sunset off El Matador State Beach is Straight Out of a Dream

Any given 6 o’clock in Malibu, you can descend a set of wooden stairs to a stretch of sand, pass a few otherworldly rock formations, situate yourself at the mouth of a cave, and behold a jaw-dropping orange-pink display over the water.

2. There Are A Ton of Superb Dining Options With an Ocean View

Whether it’s Swedish pancakes at trendy Malibu Farm, Yellowtail Sashimi at upscale Nobu, or a heavenly breakfast burrito to-go from Lily’s Cafe, the local food scene leaves nothing to be desired. And you barely have to take your eyes off the Pacific to enjoy it.

3. Santa Monica Malibu Unified School District is One of the Best in CA

SMMUSD ranks in the top 10% of Calfornia school districts, with Malibu High School at #68 in the state (of 2,199). Shark-obssessed elementary schoolers can even get a head start on their marine biology careers at Point Dume Marine Science School.

4. There’s a Waterfall Down the Road That You Can Hike to in One Hour

There are endless trails to explore right here in Malibu. A family-friendly hike to Solstice Canyon’s estate ruins and waterfall, a strenuous, three hour trek to a sea-view cliff…the list goes on. When you’ve got a landscape like this for a backdrop, who needs the gym?

5. Your Dog Can Run Free on a Grassy Field Overlooking the Sea

Trancas Canyon Dog Park is dog heaven; and the view isn’t exactly an eyesore for those of us on two legs either. If you prefer sand over turf for your dog’s stomping ground, there’s Leo Carrillo State Beach, Point Mugu State Park, or the Zuma Canyon Loop Trail.

6. The Community is Dedicated to Environmental Sustainability

Armed with a ban on plastic bags and the incredible efforts of organizations like Sea Save Foundation, Surfrider Foundation and the California Wildlife Center, Malibu officials and residents are united in their commitment to maintaining a healthy coastline.

7. You Can Skip the Chains— Easy Access to Local, Organic Produce

Shopping for veggies at the Malibu Farmers Market every Sunday makes you feel part of a close-knit community. Plus, you’re supporting both local agriculture and the Cornucopia Foundation’s education program. The rest of the week, you’ve got Vintage Grocers.

8. You’re In the Midst of Some of the Best Wine California Has to Offer

Malibu is a designated “Viticulture Area” with a growing wine scene that rivals the best of them. Forget Napa— from Malibu Family Wines to Rosenthal Estate, our neighborhood vineyards are busy spilling premium wine from grapes grown on our own coastal soil.

9. There are Events and Activities to Attend Right in the Neighborhood

The local arts scene has something for everyone: Malibu Arts Festival, Malibu Film Festival, movie screenings in the park…I could go on. Thanks to the Cultural Arts Commission and the city’s vibrant population, the arts are alive and well in Malibu.

Thanks Malibu!

"My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Silva during our recent home purchase. (For some background, my wife was excited about moving, but I was not: therefore, we went house hunting.) We found Silva through my mother, who is a real estate agent out of state. My mom did the research, interviewed several realtors, and of course, we got the best. Silva was always very enthusiastic, yet patient. We started looking a little bit in early-May 2019, but did not find a house we were excited about until late-September. A little unusual, but we decided to put in an offer before our house was on the market. Silva calmly and methodically guided us through the prepping, listing, negotiating, selling, buying, and closing processes - and we wound up moving into our new house in early-November 2019. We often think about moving again – just so we can have the opportunity to work with Silva!"

"Silva is a winner! I feel so lucky to have met Silva. She had the experience and skill and personality to sell my house at over asking price. She was 100% dedicated to finding the right buyer. I consider Silva to be a genuinely nice person and true friend. If I still lived in California, I would absolutely call on her to help me buy or sell another house."

"Absolutely choose her!!! Working with Silva was fabulous. She knew the neighborhood and the market and researched the building and my unit history to work with me to come up with a fair price recommendation. She met with me to determine my goals for the sale; she reviewed my situation to make the sale as easy as possible for me. She provided her team to help make everything ready to put the unit on the market. When we hit a snag on the inspection, she made it possible for me to resolve the situation long distance using her team and her resources. And I feel like I made a friend. I have recommended her to everyone I know and recommend her to you through this review. You will not find anyone better!"

"A Great Sale! I had a wonderful experience working with Silva and highly recommend her for your next real estate transaction. She listed my unique Glendale property in early December and sold it above the listed price. Her extensive real estate experience gave her a vision for this property that she marketed perfectly to find the unique buyer/developer the property needed. She negotiated multiple offers and an escrow extension with tremendous calm, patience, and professionalism. Overall it was a '10' experience - I feel so lucky to have worked with Silva and look forward to working with her again in the future."
