What can I say about this place that has not been said already? It is a gem of a place in Malibu and a relatively uneventful from LA to get there (provided traffic is good). Overall, it is a great place to come for two hours to soak it all in.

The grounds and the villa are at harmony with each other. The gardens and sculpture are restorative and unparalleled. There is a wonderful place where patrons are invited to offer a wish or prayer to Venus/Aphrodite by writing on a small card and hanging on the adjacent screen. The Getty Villa is more than a museum it is an experience and a get away from the hectic modern world. It is hard to imagine this museum being free to the public for all its offerings- both grand and simple pleasures.

45 minutes drive from the Getty Center.
You can make a reservation the day before.
It's an old-fashioned house with a nice garden.
Parking is $ 15 and parking can be shared with the Gati Center.

If I had a mansion, it would have to look like the Getty Villa. But, the Getty Villa is an inspirational place for visitors to see art, and enjoy the aesthetically pleasing architecture of California. Not to also mention, it's right off the Pacific Coast Highway (PCH), and is captivated by a marvelous view of the pacific ocean. I've never been here on a rainy day, but I would like to experience a rainy day, which is an auspicious moment for Angelinos.

I love taking my kids to museums when we are on vacation. I am continuing my parent's tradition. I learned a lot at the Getty Villa and all I can say is that we will be back. I love the location, which is very close to the ocean and I also love that the art is very well placed. The people are very helpful and my kids were not overwhelmed because the place is very open.

If the'Getty Center' is a large art complex such as a large art museum, garden, and art support center,
'Getty Villa' is like a museum with more classic works in Greek and Roman styles.
Both are free admission
For Getty Villas, it is advisable to book in advance.
Although the two are located a little apart, the directions are the same, so if you are planning a trip, it's a good idea to get together.
However, it is better to check the holidays well and go together as they have different holidays.

A fantastic Roman style Villa on the Pacific coast at Malibu. Parking is convenient, and should be free after 3. There is one Cafe and one restaurant, and both close at 3pm unfortunately. The Villa has mainly sculptures from various ancient Mediterranean civilizations, and the architecture alone is worth the visit.

World class museum for Greek and Roman antiquities. Audio guides highly recommended as is the short video introduction to the museum. Cafe is an enjoyable spot to relax post tour. There is also a coffee cart. Definitely get your tickets online in advance. Parking is easy during the week while school is in session.

Brilliant collection of Greek and Roman Art not to mention the incredible villa grounds and architecture, but the intense security breathing down your neck and inability to walk in or out of the museum (you must drive) makes this only accessible to certain clientele and visitors and really hinders the visitors experience.

It was nice. It wasnt all that its cracked up to be. I love the Getty in LOS ANGELES best. I guess because i am not a lover of ancient Greece or Rome. But if you like these kinds of exhibits, then this is your place. Parkings is hard to find. Make sure you print your tickets at home. They dont sell tickets at thr villa-they only have someone at the gate to take your tickets.

This place is a must. Book the ticket beforehand. Take Lyft or Uber or drive by yourself. Go there early so that you can enjoy the view and appreciate the architecture and the sculptures more.

I have always been interested in art. My wife and I went to Getty Villa. First, it is located right across from the beach in Pacific Palisades. Second, the buildings and grounds do remind you of an Italian Villa. Third, especially if you love Greek and Roman statues and art, it is really a thrill.

Admission is free, but you have to pay for parking.

Awesome views and exhibits here. There are outside and indoor exhibits. Plenty of IG worthy spots to take pics. It takes about 60-90 minutes to view everything. Traffic is heavy on the weekends and don't forget to reserve your tickets prior to coming out. They do feature tour guides as well

Just beautiful art from the Byzantine era, flawless architecture, and stunning gardens. The cafe is a great place to grab a bite, we ordered the hummus plate (white, not garbanzo) too many olives, strange tabbouleh that was too chunky, not enough pita. The roasted herbed chicken was great, so it's just a small thing to dis the hummus platter, next time I'll get a salad.

This place is an amazing way to spend an afternoon, with it's ocean breeze and views, the property itself is spectacular, and best of all it is FREE!

You do have to make a reservation, and do it in advance for a summer weekend. The museum, the buildings and the herb garden are all great!
