Nestled in the picturesque Santa Monica Mountains with a gorgeous panoramic view of the Pacific Ocean, Promises Malibu offers an unparalleled recovery experience, uncommon luxury, and is the drug rehab of choice for anyone wanting the finest quality surroundings while experiencing the highest level of clinical treatment for addiction. Located on two family estates in the hills of Malibu, the Promises Malibu facility offers breathtaking views in a peaceful, secluded environment.
A preferred destination for those seeking the finest recovery experience, Promises has been a premier drug and alcohol rehab provider since 1988. Promises Malibu is Joint Commission and CARF-accredited and known for providing sophisticated clinical treatment in one of the world's most exclusive and luxurious settings.
To ensure that every client receives concierge service, Promises Malibu limits the number of clients in each estate to six. In all of its programs - detox, residential, outpatient, extended care and sober living - treatment is highly individualized based on the specific needs of clients. The treatment team approaches each individual with the respect they deserve, going above and beyond to make sure clients get the hands-on attention they need to get well.
Treatment Overview
In line with their commitment to personalized treatment, each Promises experience will be different for each client. Although the daily schedule will vary from client to client, every person who comes to Promises will experience Promises excellence: comprehensive and individualized treatment plans, a healing environment with the highest privacy standards, and every resource needed to begin life in recovery.
Malibu Model
Promises originated the Malibu Model, having recognized that a few key features could transform the traditional rehab experience and vastly improve outcomes.
The Malibu Model replaced the one-size-fits-all approach with treatment tailored to each individual; expanded “staff” to include a fully integrated, highly credentialed treatment team; and made it easier for clients to commit to treatment by turning a hospital-like environment into a private, home-like retreat. The Malibu Model stood the test of time and has since become the gold standard in drug rehabilitation.

Since 1988, Promises has been a premier provider of addiction and dual diagnosis treatment. Recognizing that a few key features could transform the traditional rehab experience and vastly improve outcomes, Promises originated the Malibu Model. This model replaced the one-size-fits-all approach with treatment tailored to each individual; expanded “staff” to include a fully integrated, highly credentialed treatment team; and made it easier for clients to commit to treatment by turning a hospital-like environment into a private, home-like retreat.
The Malibu Model has not only stood the test of time but has since become the gold standard in drug rehabilitation. Although many have tried, it has yet to be replicated.
