I can’t say enough about this beautiful condo. We live locally but wanted to go away for a few days while our kitchen was being demoed for a remodel. I was pretty stressed out before I arrived.. but once I opened the gate to their deck, I literally felt the stress melt away. The view alone is worth staying here. In addition, it was so clean and had everything we needed . The location is great, and I can’t say enough about how nice Bo and Karen were . We can’t wait to go stay here again. Trust me you won’t be disappointed.

Walk down to the beach, enjoy a cup of coffee on the balcony while watching the waves and surfers, take the walking shortcut into town for dinner. A great beach long weekend!

Beautiful condo overlooking the ocean

We had a wonderful stay. We ate dinner and watched the sunset from the patio every night. The views were amazing. The trail leading down to the beach was a few hundred feet from the condo. We will definitely stay there again.

Absolutely gorgeous view! We never wanted to leave this awesome place. We loved the fireplace warming us after the sun went down and the ocean air cooled down. We grilled dinner on the bbq while watching surfers and occasional dolphins! The place was spotless clean and very comfortable. The neighbors were friendly and the beach vibe was relaxing and fun. Will definitely return!

Great location, incredible view, and great service

We had an amazing time at the property. Everything is exactly as described. The location is situation perfectly at a world class trail head, where you can see gorgeous 360 views of Dana Point at the summit. Also, fabulous ocean front park right downstairs from the property, and the unit is nicely stocked with chairs and things to bring down. We loved the amazing sunsets and watching the surfers ride the waves. Easy driving distance to Laguna Beach, Newport, and San Clemente. We love this area and really had a nice return stay to Orange County at this property. We had a really fun day at Catalina Island, but had to port out of Long Beach because the Dana Point Catalina Express books fast, so plan ahead! Thank you Bo and Karen for an amazing time. We have wonderful memories and photographs to cherish.

We plan to return!

We stayed here the second and third weeks of January. Loved it! Before and during the owners were always available. We were very impressed with the accommodations and the amenities. Just as pictured. So many places to hike within a few miles. Badlands Park, 1000 Steps in Laguna, Top of the World, Crystal Cove to name a few. We often also walked on the property, what views! So pretty on the balcony we did not even choose to leave many afternoons, sunsets are unreal. Close to Los Angeles and San Diego, just don't go during rush hour! Rented bikes in Newport Beach, went on whale watches from Dana Point. Lots of restaurants in Dana Point or Laguna(and several In-N-Out Burgers close by for our visiting adult children!). Everything and anything you need for the perfect vacation.

Relaxing and Beautiful!

We had an amazing stay in this spacious, two bedroom unit. Everything was exactly as described and the view was amazing. The location is perfect as it is a very short drive to the harbor and the harbor is within walking distance for those who want to explore and are up for a good walking challenge. Our four night stay went way too quickly.

This is our second stay here and that should say it all. Nothing like getting up for your morning Joe walking towards the kitchen and nothing but ocean views from the living room. Place has everything you will need for your stay and comfortable. Right on the beach so you can get your morning workout easily. Close by to stores and restaurants. I am sure we will be returning again next year.

Fabulous Winter Retreat

This house exceeded all our expectations. It is capacious and lovely, in a great location as it's easy to get to Truckee, SugarBowl and Donner and Palisades and Alpine. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen well-appointed, the hot tub the right temperature (104) and just really everything about it was great. I hope to rent it again soon!

It was fantastic— can’t beat the location and there’s not a better view in south Orange County. Stunning. No AC if that’s a concern for anyone but there are fans and sea breezes provide great ventilation and cooling. The owner is super easy to communicate with. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat if available next time I’m in town.
