Cozy cottage feels like home!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely cottage, which is furnished to meet every need. With its stunning view of the ocean and its convenient location near Pacific Coast Highway, Laguna Beach and Dana Point, it is definitely one of best vacation places we've ever found!

As happy with our second stay here as with our first!
My husband and I had a wonderful stay in this home last year and returned to spend more time in the Laguna Beach area this year. We loved it even more this time around! The home is clean, quiet, comfortable, and well-equipped for cooking and grilling. The gardens are peaceful and beautiful. And the location can’t be beat - we were able to walk to several local beaches and hike from the house to Aliso Peak, and thanks to the Laguna Beach trolley, we didn’t need to use our rental car except for longer excursions (Dana Point Harbor and Crystal Cove State Park). Great communication from a helpful host. Having amenities like laundry on-site and beach towels/gear provided was really helpful. Highly recommend!

Cozy cottage with a spectacular ocean view
My wife and I spent a week relaxing at Gary & Nadia's South Laguna Beach cottage. This was our first getaway vacation since the pandemic, and we could not have been happier with our choice. The cottage is located in a quiet neighborhood and has stunning ocean views. The kitchen is equipped with just about everything you would need to prepare your own meals, although we limited our kitchen use to breakfasts and takeout lunches so that we could sample the local restaurants in the evenings. When the weather is nice there is a table for two with an ocean view on the small deck just outside the kitchen. Our only complaint: Most of the nonstick cookware is pretty scratched up and in need of being replaced. The living room has comfortable furniture and an entertainment center with cable TV and a DVD player with a nice selection of movies. For music, there are cable channels as well as Pandora. A sliding door in the large bedroom leads to another deck with an ocean view. The garden area is meticulously maintained with tables, chairs, and plenty of shade. There is even an outdoor shower for rinsing off the sand. The bathroom is small but adequate, with a small sink/vanity and a tub/shower. The mirror above the sink is actually a medicine cabinet with shelves for stashing personal items. A washer and dryer are located in the garage. There is a little bit of rust on the washer, but it is easy to avoid. Laundry soap, softener, and bleach are all provided.

Very disappointed with the host
Basically ok, but the host rarely replied to my messages. I had to message him three times about a door handle that could lock us out of the bedroom. Other messages were also unanswered. Both thru VRBO and text. He did not bother to give me a rating. Structure in need of a painting inside and out.

Laguna Charmer With Class
This is the quintessential Laguna beach cottage. We had an amazing three nights here living the dream. Just a short walk to Thousand Steps beach which we visited each day. Also loved spending time in the back garden that felt like an extension of the house. Private with loads of charm, character, and beautiful views. Communication with the host was excellent. We’ll be back!

A Wonderful Find
This is a gem of a property! Located at the top of a hill, this historic cottage was perfect for my wife and I. The area is heavily residential, but you almost wouldn’t know it because of the steep landscapes and the abundant foliage. Despite the trees and bushes, the cottage has a view of the ocean from it’s kitchen deck! The bed was comfortable, there was ample space in the living room areas, and the kitchen was nicely outfitted. I am amazed what a nice job the owners have done in modernizing the amenities while keeping the charm of an old cottage. To us, it was a perfect balance! We can’t wait to return and hope we will be able to book it again!!

The property is quiet and located in walking distance to the beach. We especially enjoy the small porch off the kitchen. It has the best view of the ocean and we watched sunsets from there. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. This is a great place if you want a peaceful getaway near the beach.

Review
The property is very nice and Gary was very responsive. I definitely suggest taking the trolley as parking is difficult downtown. It's a short walk to the closest station. If you are arriving late in the evening, request that the fans are on and the windows opened, so the cool evening air cools the house. That was a very minor inconvenience, however, when we arrived late the first night and did not know there was no air conditioning (which really is not needed, you just need to keep the fans on and the windows opened by early evening.) The washer and dryer are nice and the beach chairs and umbrella are a plus.
