Gorgeous Refresh & Mins to Beach- A/C, W/D, Wifi, BBQ, FP, Smart TV's & Parking!

Property was in perfect condition and just as advertised. Hosts were wonderful.

I stayed 5 weeks at the unit, Aug - Sept 2019. I was working in the area, and needed a place close to Pacific Coast Highway (PCH). The unit is one of several in a multi-flat property. Property owners were exceptionally gracious and helpful. I was given a free upgrade to this unit, from a more modest one that I had originally booked. The unit I stayed in was nicely furnished and decorated. Kitchen and bath appeared to be new, and well-supplied with necessities. Superior-quality, ultra-quiet ceiling fans in living room and bedroom. A/C unit in LR. The interior is laid out in a loft configuration. As you walk in the front door, you have the living room to your left. In front of you is a short flight of stairs, with a turn, up to the bedroom and adjoining bath. Walking through the LR, there is an open passage into the dining and kitchen area. A few minor issues came up during my stay, all of which were immediately resolved. Constructive criticism : the shower configuration is awkward and inconvenient. Shower walls don't go up very high, and there's no shower door or curtain. This limits how much handheld shower can be adjusted. I was forced to crouch over at the foot of the bathtub. Also, the king-size bed was a little soft for me. I prefer at least a medium-firm mattress. Street noise : property is at the foot of a hill, at the intersection where 2 residential streets come together. There wasn't much traffic at all, but there did seem to be a fair number of cars driving by early in the morning. I'm a light sleeper, so I had to wear earplugs. During the day, there was often a fair amount of construction noise either by the property handyman, or residential construction nearby.

This was a perfect place to stay in Dana Point and the inside is so cute!

I cannot say enough positive things about the Landlubbers Loft. I had the pleasure of hibernating here for Christmas and New Year. I spent my days gazing at the decor instead of spending it at the beach! I found the atmosphere to be inviting and soothing. There was a bookcase with many offerings for journeys of the mind and/or soul. I did not even watch the TV for the first two weeks because I loved the onscreen aquatic display too much to take it away! The lighting it provided was just perfect. The highlight for me was the unforgettable mermaid lamp. I fell in love with her before I rented the unit, and she is why I chose to spend my holidays in Dana Point. I felt very blessed to be near her. Also, the whales in the house were so beautiful, I did not want to leave. I had groceries and food delivered despite plenty of offerings nearby. Postmates and Instacart were companies I chose to help me with my holiday hibernation. Other highlights included the spa bathroom with its fascinating shower and bathtub experience; the extraordinary washer & dryer conveniently located in the unit; the extremely comfortable large bed with copious amounts of pillows; the kitchen with its soothing decor and everything you would need along with incredible appliances; and a private patio with great furniture. Overall, the Landlubbers Loft offers an unforgettable, inviting, comfortable atmosphere with wood paneling and beautiful furnishings.
