The Getty Villa, Malibu

The Getty Villa is well worth the price of admission which is FREE ! Parking is not however but only cost $15. The grounds are quite beautiful, the museum portion is also lovely. The exhibits are quite lovely but quite sparse relative to museums in Europe. However this is California and you just don't go out and dig these things up. So worth the visit you'll spend 2-4 hours here max.

My favorite museum in the West. My mother is from Italy and I've always been fond of ancient art. Los Angeles is very lucky to have such a collection here, and it is all presented in a replica of a Roman Villa. It's being renovated now (2017) so some of the museum is closed. Be patient. It will be amazing again. The Cafe is also a nice place for a peaceful lunch.

Beautiful location and amazing artifacts. Very well maintained. It was under construction while we were there so there were a lot of exhibits closed, check the website before going to make sure that what you want to see is open. Entry is free but parking will cost you $15. Also you must book online before visiting, the number of visitors is limited each day.

Went to see some exhibits and enjoyed our time here. Great museum. 👍 They do a really great job of curating great work and exhibits. There is a beautiful courtyard to relax and enjoy some water features. You can sit and enjoy the beautiful setting and take your time as you go from exhibit to exhibit. Take your camera and be ready to take lots of photos.

Great place to go. Pleasant environment. Lots of good historical and cultural information. Great for kids to be exposed to items from older cultures and civilizations. Worth spending several hours there, which is easy to do if you read all the information and placards that accompany each exhibit.
