Oceanfront Cottage is on the sand in heart of Laguna Beach Village

Location is incredible, the house sits further back than neighboring properties. The view from the porch is blocked by building on the left. Unfortunate but that seems to be the norm on California beaches . Would stay there again.

This original Laguna Beach cottage is a gem! In the center of the village, it’s easy to walk to shops and restaurants. The view never gets old! It’s such a perfect spot you won’t want to leave. Thanks Angie and Al. We’ll be back!

This house and property is a gem! The location is perfect for walking to everything you need. Can’t wait to return!

This is a well appointed beach house in the heart of Laguna Beach. Two beautiful bedrooms - one with a King; another with a Queen. The areas with bunk beds is a bit small - would be best for smaller children. Can’t beat the location.

Great location and beach access.

This beach house is just amazing! My husband and I have rented this house every year and sometimes multiple times a year since 2020. We just finished our annual week here and we are already planning our 2023 stay. This property is beautiful and has a warm and relaxing feeling. It is located right on the beach with amazing unobstructed views of the water and beach. You can watch the waves and surfers from the top balcony. It’s just breathtaking and so relaxing. The beds are extremely comfortable and the property is exquisitely clean. The kitchen is fully stocked and they have a grill on the outside patio if you want to grill at home and watch the sunset. It is located in the heart of Laguna but far enough away from the crowds. It’s very quiet and the neighbors are very friendly. You can walk into town each day and night for lunch, shopping, dinner, festivals and entertainment. This is one of our favorite rentals and we look forward to 2023!

This is our third year to rent this home and it was again FABULOUS!!! We have made this home part of our summer family tradition and we look forward to next year! The location is amazing, amenities great, the home is beautiful, you can hear the waves and watch the ocean from 4 different balconies. The property managers are excellent as well. See you next year Laguna Beach! We can’t wait and thank you for the memories!

Getting a postage size piece of ocean front is costly in California but meeting other rental neighbors next door and within a block confirmed this property is definitely out of line. And only 1 key! NOT a sleep 8 house!! 2 beds -1 K & 1 Q (soft bed so back issues):-& hot tub is a chlorine dunk tank, not a deal breaker but if important - fyi. House was great but could have hit 5 star if it was $10k less but too many layers of mgmt

It’s like waiting up to a dream every day. This home captures the essence of a coastline dreamscape from the moment you walk into the door. The ripples that crashes on the sand right in front of your eyes is breathtaking. Plus the walk to nearby shops and restaurants are unbeatable!!! The multi-level decks made it great for the teens to have personal space but being together at the same time. Outstanding property!!!!!!

The Laguna Beach house was perfect for our family. It is a hidden gem. A wonderfully renovated original Laguna Beach cottage. The four terraces are perfect for spreading out and watching the daily surf lessons. Very clean, tons of towels, bath and beach, great washer and dryer. Kitchen has everything you need. Beautifully decorated. Enjoyed the fireplace. Location is amazing. Everything close by and trolley super convenient.

Great house. Everything you need. Gorgeous view of the ocean. Walking distance to good restaurants and shopping. Friendly staff taking care of everything. Highly recommended. You will love this amazing house.

Loved staying here. Great location, cozy dogs!

As listed, the house had everything from amazing views to great communication with the host. We will definitely be returning again soon!

This house just can't be beat! The location is amazing, right on the beach with views for days and amazing sunsets every night. Steps down to the beach and an easy walk to restaurants, gyms, coffee shops, grocery stores, etc. The house itself is updated and beautiful and had everything we needed for Thanksgiving week. Can't wait to come back!

The house is beautiful and has everything you need. We absolutely loved and enjoyed our stay. Very well kept outdoors, the Gardner is amazing.

Beautiful home with excellent design. Location on the beach and at entrance to the HIP District cannot be beat. In close proximity to restaurants, shopping abd best coffee shop in Laguna. About a 10 minute to downtown Laguna Beach. Outdoor furniture could use updating but due to location on the beach I am sure it takes a lot of upkeep. Beds in two full bedrooms are excellent. Would lease it again.

We loved the house and the location. It is literally right on the ocean! The house is beautiful and very comfortable! The management company and owners were very nice and very accommodating ! We will definitely be back!!

Perfect location on Laguna Beach and so walkable everywhere. House is very charming cottage.

On the beach, but up on a hill, so we had privacy along with direct access to the beach. First family vacation in years and the amenities were wonderful!

Such a charming seaside cottage in what can only be described as the perfect location! This rental was everything you hoped it would be and more. You will not be disappointed. The only negative I can say is that you won’t want to leave! Highly, highly recommend.

If you are contemplating renting this home, it is absolutely worth the splurge. The property manager is extremely responsive. The photos are representative of this gorgeous space. If your expectations are high based on the photos, in person, the view does not disappoint. This beachfront cottage has 4 outdoor deck spaces that rival the beautiful interior. Even with all of the doors and windows closed, you can hear the relaxing sound of waves crashing on the beach. Begin your morning with a walk towards Main Beach via private access to the sand. The shops and restaurants of Laguna Beach are a short 10-15 minute walk away. Many restaurants are open with expanded outdoor seating. Or consider carry-outs from local restaurants and continue to enjoy the view. Laguna Coffee Company and Orange Inn are a short walk for coffee in the morning. Ralph's grocery is a also close. Thalia Surf Shop is a stone's throw away. Rent anything you need there (boards, wetsuits, etc). One morning I walked to South Swell Donuts (that was a bit far but worth the trip). You do not need to a rent a car, though we did to maximize flexibility. We found ourselves (all adults for this trip) gathering together each evening for cocktails to enjoy the spectacular sunsets. Some days we cooked dinner (all appliances are of high quality). Truly there is no reason to leave the house and we all found ourselves gravitating towards the ocean for surfing, swimming, walking or just enjoying the view. Note: we did not utilize the Jacuzzi, BBQ or outdoor fireplace because it was too warm for that when we were there. We will definitely be back.

My family had the great pleasure of staying in this fabulous home for four awesome weeks. The home has been fully remodeled inside and out and is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Located right on the water with three great deck areas, the home is the ultimate luxurious hideaway. The house comes with everything you need for a great stay. The pictures in the review pale to the real thing, the house and views are terrific. The home is within walking distance of everything you need. The charming village of Laguna Beach is just a few moments stroll away, and there are innumerable restaurants within walking distance, as well as a grocery store. An awesome month in such a luxurious setting made our last month of summer a great one!!! Thank you so much!!!

I had a wonderful memorable birthday vacation at the most beautiful cottage on Laguna Beach! The house is beautifully professionally decorated and that includes everything from the furniture to the linens, also a fully stocked gourmet kitchen. The outdoors was an integral part of the indoors with its panoramic view of the ocean, outdoor living space, hot tub, fire pit etc. From waking up in the morning, seeing the surfers in the water to watching the sunset was breathtaking. We felt like the ocean was just beneath us. It was more than I expected from the description and the pictures just don't do it justice!! We were amazed at the quality. One of my friends is a decorator and she said she thought she had gone to decorating heaven!! Al was very helpful and informative. We never needed a car, walked to wonderful restaurants and shops. I would highly recommend this listing. We are now planning our trip early for next year and it will be at this location!! I miss the sounds of the ocean already!!! Regards, Jane M

This was one of our best vacations yet! Not only was the location spectacular, the house itself is beautiful. It's the perfect "cottage" by the sea. You are very close to downtown and all the things Laguna Beach has to offer. The owners and property manager were very accommodating and were a delight to work with. We plan to come back every year!
