Dana Point Marina Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great experience from start to finish."

Ocean View Laguna Beach Cottage, Private Garden 700ft to 1000 Steps Beach entry

10/10 Excellent

"Truly enjoyed our stay in this historic 1928 cottage. Very charming and private. Kitchen is very well equipped. Garden is tranquil and has several sitting areas to enjoy the Laguna weather. There is an ocean view from the kitchen and outdoor deck. PCH 1 and a popular beach are only a few blocks from the house but the streets in that area are quite steep! Makes for a good workout! Not many restaurants nearby but a trolley stop is not far. We were there in June and the house stayed cool with many windows opened and ceiling fans used. Having a garage and a driveway is a plus for Laguna. I would recommend this cottage for couples or small family."

Close to Beach w/ Patio & Resort Amenities | The Point at Corniche | STR16-0458

10/10 Excellent

"The property is in a great location, it's stocked with all the necessities and for being in an apartment/condo complex, the parking was easy. The communication was always timely and check-in/out was clear."

Exclusive Monarch Beach, Ritz Pointe Condo - 2 Bedroom, 2 Bath [STR23-0012]

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful 10-day stay at this condo! The property was absolutely beautiful, spotless, and very well maintained. The host went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, including leaving a thoughtful basket of snacks and goodies upon our arrival.The condo was exceptionally well stocked with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Although we didn’t travel with children, it was clear that families are warmly welcomed here. The condo had books, games, and plenty of child-friendly amenities that would make traveling with little ones much easier.We truly appreciated the attention to detail, cleanliness, and hospitality. We would not hesitate to stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and comfortable getaway."
