4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Malibu

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable time to visit Malibu is during January, November, and December, when hotel prices tend to be lower. For those looking to explore the area’s key landmarks, cultural highlights, and natural wonders, staying for at least 2 to 3 days is recommended. During your budget-friendly getaway, you can enjoy stunning sunsets, picturesque scenery, and the serene beaches. Additionally, activities such as hiking, surfing, and visiting local wineries and cafes offer great value for money, making it an enriching experience without breaking the bank.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To uncover last-minute deals for accommodation in Malibu, consider exploring the Deals or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may discover discounted rates on hotels just before your travel date. Enabling email alerts or push notifications can keep you informed about flash sales and special promotions, helping you seize opportunities to save. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you're more likely to see the best hotel deals. With timely updates on price drops or new availability, you could secure a fantastic last-minute getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices can fluctuate based on various factors, including the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year. Therefore, being flexible with your travel dates may help you save on your stay at a hotel in Malibu. For those seeking distinctive experiences, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised touch and can sometimes offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we’ll inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price appears to be on the higher side, we may suggest more affordable dates, increasing the likelihood that you’ll find a better deal.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels situated near the city centre usually tend to be more expensive, but thanks to Malibu's excellent public transport links, you may discover a more affordable independent hotel a bit further afield that remains well-connected.
