This is an amazing place. We wanted to go away for New Year’s but couldn’t go overseas due to work commitments. So we chose here based on reviews and pics. We just wanted something quiet and nice. This place is beautiful and the host couldn’t be nicer or more accommodating. The inside is one of the nicest places I’ve ever stayed. The outside area is spectacular. Even with less than perfect weather we enjoyed the spa and pool. We’ll be back for sure.

Mountaintop Oasis

After looking at literally dozens of properties, we finally decided on Leslie’s cute little cottage in the wine country. When we arrived, it became apparent that this place was well beyond “cute.” Spacious outdoor accommodations were filled with beauty and peacefulness, a huge swimming pool, jacuzzi, greenery and scenery. Leslie was easy to deal with, charming, delightful and helpful. Her mountaintop oasis was perfectly located for us — just minutes away from every place we wanted to go, but without all of the noise and cultural clutter so common closer to the PCH. We highly recommend staying here and plan to do so again ourselves! The two bedroom indoor space is quaint and comfortable, with a small kitchen, living room, and two well-appointed bathrooms. Everything you need is there, including some amenities you don’t, such as the large teak indoor sauna and the cool outdoor bathtub! There are too many nice touches to list, but the quality of the place and its modern amenities were evident and really appreciated. Looking for the perfect place to spend a week in Malibu is challenging and fraught with fear of the unknown. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found the perfect place for us, and to have a wonderful new friend in Leslie.

A Fairytale Wedding 

We planned our entire wedding from Houston, TX and a large part of this was possible with all of Leslie’s help and coordination. She knew exactly what vendors to use that were high quality and within our budget. We had our wedding in April 2019 and at first we were worried about any fire damage to the surrounding areas after the devastating fires in November. We were very fortunate as the grass had grown back greener and we didn’t see any signs of the previous fire. The venue was undamaged.

Amazing Venue 

I'm a Wedding Planner that has been working with this venue and not only is it one of the most stunning properties I've seen, Leslie is a wonderful Venue Owner who's been a pleasure to work with. Her meticulous attention to the property and dedication in making sure it shines for all of her weddings is unmatched. She vets all vendors carefully to be sure the day is perfect and everything runs smoothly. Even after fire devastated the area and the people living there, she has worked tirelessly to restore any damages and the property looks better than ever. Her prices are more than fair for the area and you will definitely not regret booking this gorgeous venue.

Amazing views and top notch service! I was blown away!!! 

I can't say enough about how amazing this wedding venue is! Le Sangreal is an elegant venue with a European flair and gorgeous views! The lighting there is magical at sunset for photos and I love how they came out. I love the intimate feeling of the venue and the service is top notch. Leslie, the owner, is a pleasure to work with! She's so friendly, helpful, and her attention to detail is bar none. Right from the start, she's there to help you with every step of the way to make sure that your day runs smoothly. I love the personal attention and you can tell that she loves her job and is passionate about making your wedding day perfect. She really cares about her clients and it shows. Le Sangreal a hidden gem and is such a great deal and is very reasonable, compared to the other over-priced venues in the area. I love how you can stay in the chateau guest house the night before so that you can get ready for your big day without the stress of having to drive from one location to another in LA traffic. It's tastefully decorated and has everything that you need. I love the outdoor claw foot bathtub! Guests feel welcomed and gush over the beautiful property. The food and service was awesome and we felt taken care of. If you're looking for an intimate location with breathtaking views, look no further. It's a dream venue and I guarantee that you will fall in love with it too!

We loved Leslie’s place. Everything about it was absolutely perfect and better than expected. Leslie is such a helpful and warm person and we loved talking with her. The views were stunning and the outdoor bath tub overlooking the valley was one of our favorite parts. Staying here you would never even guess there had been so much fire damage in the surrounding areas, as Leslie’s place seems untouched and the surrounding hills are covered in wildflowers.

Le Sangreal will take your breath away. This venue is so lovely and so is Leslie, who was such a dream to work with! She made sure that we were taken care of throughout our entire wedding journey. You can see how much she cares about her clients and how passionate she is about her property. I had seen about a dozen venues before but nothing compared to how stunning and personal Le Sangreal is. The views are incredible, the little chateau we stayed in before and after the wedding was exquisite. We didn't need much decorating because every inch of the place is picturesque. It's hard not to fall in love with it. Her packages are very reasonable and accommodating compared to other venues in Malibu, and I loved that I was able to stay the night before with my bridesmaids as well as the night of the wedding with my new husband. 
I still can't get over how beautiful my wedding was! All thanks to Leslie and the little piece of heaven she created.

Le’ Sangreal was simply a dream! Right when I walked on the property, I knew it was exactly where I wanted to share such a special moment of marriage. This venue is beyond gorgeous - I was going to have the ceremony at the beach - but passed on that and had it at Le’ Sangreal because it was just that stunning. Not only was the ceremony backdrop gorgeous, it was breathtaking [and convenient] for our guests. 
The location is perfection, nestled away in the middle of the Santa Monica mountains in Malibu. There is nothing factory or chain about this venue, it’s as if it dropped from heaven to host your wildest dream of a wedding. Leslie was a jewel to work with, before, during and after. She is such a kind human being and it shows in every interaction and detail she gives to the bride/groom. She is honest in all she does and truly cares about the people using her property. I was told by many guests that this was the most beautiful wedding they had attended, had many comments on the location. My 100 guests enjoyed every second of it. Dinner during the sunset was a moment to remember. No fancy props/backdrop needed, because my guest got up during dinner to take photos with the sunset. I recommend staying here! I stayed two nights, which was perfect for before the day, and my husband and I spent our first night together there. The quaint house is perfection and comes with all you could imagine - a sauna, kitchen, fridge, pool, etc. Honestly this is a hidden gem. So glad I found it! It made for a magical experience on one of the most important days of my life!
