This unit is an excellent place to stay. Great ocean view from the patio with a firepit. The kitchen was well stock with essential. Restaurants were in walking distance. The owner was responsive to questions. Would definitely stay here again.
The location can't be beat and the owners are so responsive. It is a small cottage but worked perfectly for a family of four with two teenage girls. The walkability plus garage are amazing. And those views... incredible. We loved beach days and had everything we needed. My suggest adding a cooler at the house but that's the only thing missing.

The unit was not updated and furniture and curtains were in poor condition. The view and access to the beach was as promised! They just need to refresh the inside of the unit. Couches were very worn, bedrooms very small, and the curtains torn and old
The location is fabulous with steps down to the beach and restaurants/shopping in easy walking distance. Enjoyed sitting on the patio in the morning to listen to the ocean and watch the tide. The firepits are great at night. There were plenty of towels and nice amenities in the bathroom. With parking at a premium, the garage was very nice to have. The leather furniture in the living area was very worn, almost harsh on the skin if wearing shorts. The dining table was spacious with comfortable chairs. Loved the blinds which allowed seeing out, but not in. Curtains were tired with some rips.

Hi Lynda, glad you enjoyed it! We will be updating the couch, some time in the near future. Thanks again for staying with us!
Our vacation rental was very adequately supplied and clean. The ocean is practically outside the door and down the stairs. Very short walk to coffee, cafes, and restaurants. Short walk or drive to other beaches, activities, and downtown Laguna Beach. Very easy communication with our host. We very much enjoyed our stay!
Amazing location and property. Loved the access to the beach and outdoor patio area. Home was clean and well outfitted. We will be staying here again!!
The place was okay, but older and more faded than the pictures indicate. We chose it over other because it said it had AC, but the AC and heat was broken while we were there. The host provided heaters which did a great job in the chilly mornings, but it got quite warm in the afternoon with no AC.
The location was perfect! A staircase right out the front door to the beach. We enjoyed the sunset from our living room, a nice breeze, quiet, not alot of people on the beach. Very comfortable location!!
This was a great VRBO! We’ve always stayed right near the main beach so I wasn’t sure how we’d like the location, but it was great. The view from the living room and patio was beautiful and so convenient with kids being able to go back and forth from the beach as they please. We would definitely stay here again!
Only had two nights, but loved the location, the views and proximity to the Pacific. The home was great, close to much of what Laguna has to offer. We enjoyed the patio, the firepit and the coastal access immensely
Great location and wonderful views. Saw dolphins a few days. A bit tight for 4 people but close friends make it work. Needs to be stocked a bit better. Overall, we would rexommend it.
The view is spectacular. Sitting on the patio, quiet and beautiful. Guaranteed parking spot not always available so this is great. Fully stocked kitchen.
Everything was just perfect for our girls trip. can’t beat the views and sounds of ocean all night long. Great location, and Derek was so helpful and responsive
