  • We had a wonderful stay at this great find! The location is ideal, we enjoyed the easy access to everything and proximity to the beach. Marie and John were very accomodating and helpful with great suggestions. They also made a point to make the stay great for our 2-year-old - even with special toys for him to play with! We would love to come back!

  • Our family stayed at this wonderful beach house this summer and we can't wait to come back! The house was so beautiful, clean and you just can't beat the location. We had everything we needed for the beach and walked to the ocean everyday! The hospitality was incredible and we felt very welcomed and at home. We have recommended this to many friends and relatives and will definitely be back!

  • We want to thank you again for sharing your very special house with us. This is the third year we have rented your great 2 bedroom house. We feel right at home the moment we enter. Your furnishings are always updated, so clean and new, and comfortable. The decor is so welcoming; soft music playing, a beautiful plant on the table. The second bedroom is a big plus for us as we have family in the area. The guest parking is also a plus. We never have to search for a place to park. We enjoy our short little walk to the beach, stores and restaurants each day. The kitchen is fully stocked as well. The books and games you provide are perfect. You have thoughtof everything to make our stay comfortable, relaxing, and fun. Thank you again and see you next year!

  • John and Marie are wonderful hosts. Their cottage satisfied all our needs for a rental property. It was well-cared for, comfortable, clean and well-stocked with supplies for cooking and /or entertaining. Being there makes us happy. We plan to return and would recommend rental from them to anyone.

  • Kristin and I stayed for a wonderful week in mid-January. Our kids came down for the weekend and we all enjoyed Laguna Beach. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. The cotttage was perfect for our needs. I would stay here again!

  • We were very pleased to be able to stay at this wonderful cottage. Walking to the beach was fun and beautiful. It was handy to be able to walk to the restaurants and stores. I love being able to ignore the car! Staying at this cottage would be a special treat for anyone.

  • When we arrived, the cottage was exactly as described in the listing. Marie stopped by to greet us & to let us know if we needed anything to let her know. The beach chairs & umbrellas were great to have on hand! Our four year old daughter was delighted with the selection of toys & videos provided. We are former residents of Orange County, so we were very familiar with the area. We used to spend almost every Sunday afternoon in Laguna, but what a treat it was to actually feel like residents of the town for a week! Ralph's, Trader Joes, & Gelson's are all very close. We loved being able to walk to dining, the beach, and all of the shops! One evening we were having a group of friends to the cottage for dinner & John and Marie were kind enough to lend us a chair from their own dining table so we would have enough seating! All of our friends were so impressed with the house! In our opinion, if you are staying in the area a week or longer, or traveling with children, the Beresfords cottage is the only way to go! We plan on staying here again next year! By the way, Pomadoro had exceptional Italian food & was very kid friendly!

  • What can I add that hasn't already been said? And all true! We borrowed bikes, beach chairs, beach toys, sunglasses! from John and Marie -- both were incredible hosts. The cottage is just adorable - just enough space for our family of four. (Our daughter slept in the living room to stay away from her brother). A generously stocked vidio and reading library was a nice added benefit. The ability to walk to get a coffee, dinner, breakfast, Whole Foods, art galleries, dinner, was great -- and Trader Joe's is just a short drive away for less expensive, healthy foods and wines. We hiked on mountains and in canyons, with views of the ocean, in the mornings (we went to three different parks) and to the beach or shopping most afternoons. The weather was the best it can be in June - sunny and dry and 70-80F. Heaven!

  • Perfect location, and a great 1930-ish cottage for a single family. John & Marie went out of their way to help us with some terrific amenities (Pack-n-Play, beach chairs, etc.) and were wonderful hosts -- finding the right blend of offering help, while staying clear to afford us privacy in enjoying the cottage. The outside street sees alot of traffic, but the walk to Main Beach and downtown shops is just fantastic, and well worth the traffic. The street parking reserved for us worked fine too. Kitchen was well stocked with pans/cooking implements, to allow us easy use of the kitchen. House is really perfect for single family. Would definitely go back again. Be sure to hit the Ralphs Supermarket -- open 24 hours (would have saved us alot of time on 1st day, when we were roaming looking for groceries the evening of our first visit). In all - a great place. Definitely stay there is you're interested in a quality LB scene.

  • We had such an awesome time staying at the Beresford's cottage! You couldn't ask for a better location, a better home, or better hosts. We stayed for a month, and hardly needed our car. If you're looking for a place that is close to downtown Laguna, and Main Beach, this cottage is it! It's the perfect size for a family of 4. I could go on and on about the Beresford family, but suffice it to say they went over and above on a daily basis. We will definitely stay here again, and add to the positive memories already made!
