It’s time for a late-summer stay-cation!
We’re a few days into September now and it’s going to be officially fall before we know it. Living in LA, fall doesn’t exactly come with the cozy sweaters and colorful leaves you see on Instagram. For us, it’s still sky high temps and often wildfires. While those conditions are not ideal, it means that tourism in our city drops off this time of year. With the busy summer travel season winding down, now is the perfect time to take advantage of lower prices on vacant AirBnbs and book yourself a little stay-cation. We’re rounding up some of our favorite Malibu area Airbnbs that we thing would be perfect for a not so far from home get away, and sharing tips on how to score the best deals!
One of the best ways to score a deal on vacation rental home is to book for weekdays, often time hosts will set their rate lower for less popular days of the week. If you have flexibility in your schedule or can work remotely, booking for work days could mean big savings.

Planning to stay a while? Another great way to save is by booking a long stay. Many hosts will offer discounts for stays longer than one week - sometimes you just have to message them directly to get the deal. If you’ve got the flexibility, you can also score a great deal by booking something last minute which is easier to do when you’re staying close to home.
