Calabasas is an upscale, relaxed suburban enclave tucked into the Santa Monica Mountains with leafy neighborhoods, a compact downtown of boutiques and restaurants, easy access to hiking and outdoor recreation, and a comfortable, low‑stress vibe that works well for multi‑week stays.
You’re also roughly 20–35 miles from Malibu’s beaches and coastal trails and from Los Angeles’s museums, dining, and nightlife—so it offers a quiet, pleasant home base with quick access to big‑city and beach activities.
