The pictures dont do this place justice. It felt bigger than the pictures show. The beach is less than a 10 minite walk away. The grocery store was conveniently close as well. There is a trolly stop super close if you dont want to walk everywhere. It had everything we needed. I highly recommend this rental.

Charming old home in a great location. However we did have some concerns. The main entry way is very small and awkward with curving stairs on both sides, would not recommend arriving after dark. The hand railing was not fastened securely to the wall, and as it’s planks of wood, not an actual rail, is hard to grab if you needed to. Could be a hard place to stay if you or another guest have limited mobility or poor balance. Several light switches and outlets didn’t work, neither did the oven. Also, I don’t think anyone would have wanted to sleep on the pull out as it angled down at the foot of the bed and you could feel the springs with your hands. We slept on the couch instead. We would not recommend for 6 people, only 4. We still had a great trip and enjoyed the view morning, noon and night! Would come back now that we know what to expect and how quirky it is, with less people. A great option for the price point. Really friendly neighborhood. Easy walk (with hills) to beaches and downtown Laguna. Loved the Laguna Trolley for transportation when desired.

Casa Laguna was very nice, The place was exactly what it said. Came out for a wedding and it is super close to everything. Our only issue was the ac upstairs did not work so well . It became very hot during the day. We closed all the blinds and drapes to help keep it cooler. Otherwise the place was perfect. There was coffee and some spices, plenty of pots , pans, plates, cups. Did not need to bring anything other than your own groceries. Walk to the beach and town did not need a car.Will definitely go back.

This property accommodated our family of 5 nicely. It’s an easy walk to get your morning coffee, groceries or go to the beach (and get your daily exercise!) The deck offers beautiful views of the ocean and a quiet place to read or get some sun. The host is very accommodating and friendly. Highly recommend for your next trip to beautiful Laguna Beach!

The property was lovely and accommodated our family perfectly. The owners were very communicative, and they provided everything you may need - kitchen was fully stocked. The only comment would be the location and the walkability to town. There is a fair amount of incline to get to the property!

Layout, location and view

This property is located near so much to do in Laguna Beach! We took the trolley quite a bit and the closest stop was just a couple blocks away! The layout was also perfect and spacious for our family with the master bedroom downstairs and the “kids room” upstairs. 2 bathrooms was a plus as well! The view at sunset was gorgeous and we loved grilling on the deck. We will definitely be back!

The house was in a great location close to the beach and close to trolley stops. It could use some upgrades the sleeper sofa is very uncomfortable to sleep on. I cannot say only good things about the host very quick to respond and make sure we were happy with our stay.

Nice three weeks in the winter

My husband and I stayed here for three weeks in Jan/Feb. The place is very comfortable to stay in. The kitchen is nicely stocked with dishes, pans, etc. so we could make dinner at home. The view from the balcony and upstairs guest room is wonderful - we could watch the sunset over Catalina Island. The neighborhood is quiet and about a 15 min walk to Main beach. We enjoyed taking the Cliff walk along the ocean to Main beach every morning and went back into town in the evening. We would definitely recommend this place.

Laguna Beach Weekend

We had a wonderful weekend at Lagunita. Although a little outdated and noisy with construction across the street, the size of the cottage was perfect. Our daughter stayed upstairs and we had the king downstairs. The bed was a little too soft for us, but the room was quiet and comfortable. The cottage had an amazing view of the sunset and was close to the beach. Bring your walking shoes since there are lots of steep hills everywhere! Our hosts were super helpful and accommodating, We had a wonderful weekend!

Good location

The listing states 3 bedroom, shame on me for not reading the listing more closely. This is a 2 bedroom with a sleeper sofa in the living room. We would have chosen differently had we known as traveling with teenagers is easier when each has their own, private, space. Otherwise location was good and the host communicated effectively and the views from the deck were great.

Great rental in Laguna, just north of Laguna Canyon Rd and with a beautiful view of the ocean. Stayed with 2 girlfriends and the place was clean and comfy.
