About the host
Hosted by Bree Cox
I’m Bree — a Laguna Beach local who loves creating calm, inspiring spaces where people can truly recharge. I believe that travel should feel like coming home, and hosting gives me the joy of helping guests slow down, reconnect, and breathe a little deeper.
I share the property with my two Ragdoll cats, Spencer and Grace, who take their job as quiet companions very seriously. They’re friendly but tend to keep to themselves, usually sunbathing or birdwatching from their favorite windows.
When I’m not filming for my wellness and lifestyle projects, you’ll find me walking the beach trails, rearranging flowers on the patio, or sipping tea while watching the sun dip into the Pacific. I take pride in maintaining a clean, beautiful space where every guest feels cared for and at ease.
We look forward to sharing a little Laguna serenity with you — Spencer, Grace, and I promise to make your stay as peaceful as the view.
Why they chose this property
Laguna Beach has a soul like nowhere else — it’s creative, coastal, and full of charm. I chose this hillside neighborhood because it captures the best of both worlds: the quiet serenity of nature and the energy of downtown just minutes away.
From this spot, you can wake up to the sound of birds, walk or drive to the beach in minutes, and still feel tucked away in my own little sanctuary above it all. The neighborhood is peaceful, safe, and surrounded by friendly locals who appreciate the beauty and rhythm of Laguna living.
What makes this property unique
Serenity in the Hills isn’t just a place to stay — it’s an experience designed to help you feel calm, inspired, and at home. Every detail, from the soft textures to the curated coastal palette, was chosen to reflect Laguna’s natural beauty.
Guests love the private balcony with ocean glimpses, the boutique-style furnishings, and the sense of tranquility that fills the space. It’s ideal for writers, creatives, executives, or anyone needing a peaceful home base while life shifts or dreams unfold.
