Hi Stephanie. I am so happy you enjoyed your stay and that my father-in-law, Rollie was able to help when needed. He does a great job keeping to himself, but being available when our guest can use a little help or if a maintenance issue pops up.

Stay was great! It’s worth noting that the apartment is one block away from a retreat center that hosts over a thousand teenagers for summer retreats. They were kind and respectful and we had no trouble from them, but I feel like it’s reasonable for guests to know that the streets and beach will be crowded!

Hi Marcos. I am happy to hear you enjoyed the house and its . I am also glad we were able to quickly figure out that when we had the batteries on the golf cart replaced right before your stay, they did not tighten down a cable well. That allowed us to get it tighten up and get you back on the road! That is the benefit of having an on-site maintenance person. Anything that pops up can be addressed immediately.

We had a wonderful vacation here! The location was very convenient for beach access and the use of the golf cart was a major part of our decision to select this property. It was so nice being able to utilize the cart to load our beach gear and drive it to the nearby beach access without having to carry everything. We spent most of our nights on the 2nd floor deck enjoying the gulf breezes and watching the local wildlife. Erica was quickly responsive and Rollie was very friendly and open to any questions we had. Thank you for everything and making our stay a fun and relaxing experience. We highly recommend!

Clean and comfortable. The front porch deck is great outdoor space. We enjoyed walking the neighborhoods of Laguna Beach. Just a short walk to the incredible white sand beach. Erica and Rollie are friendly, helpful hosts.

Updated vintage charm

This property is adorable. Plenty of clean, vintage charm with modern updates. Our family especially enjoyed the proximity to the beach, comfortable beds and golf cart. Owner was super easy to communicate with and having a friendly caretaker on site was very helpful. This home provided everything we needed for a fun and relaxing vacation.

Amazing

Love the neighborhood and the fact that it’s in the residential area of the beach rather than in the middle of the tourist area….can’t beat sitting out on your own private balcony enjoying your coffee and listening to the birds singing in the morning…

Great stay

I would stay here again. We had everything we needed. I didn't know the laundry was down stairs in a detached building/ shed. It wasn't a problem for us but may be for other people. We enjoyed the outdoor seating and the golf cart. You are able to park the golf cart at any of the public beach accesses, and it takes maybe two minutes to get to the closest one.

Very relaxing and soooo close to beachl

Having the golf cart to use was the icing on the cake. We used it to go to the beach, the Carosel grocery store and ridingaround Laguna Beach. House has a beachy retro vibe. Beds are comfy. Kitchen has just about anything I needed to cook meals. The property manager, Rollie, was helpful, friendly and fun to talk to. We loved the quiet west end but appreciated the short ride to PCB for restaurants and entertainment. Would stay again.

Great place for a getaway!

This was a great place to spend a week at the beach. Communication with Erica was easy and quick for everything we needed ahead of our stay and once we arrived. The beds are very nice.. one kinda firm, one kinda soft. The front porch was a great hang out spot for the evenings, we even got to watch a little storm pass through one night. The GOLF CART was a lifesaver. I basically parked my car at the first of the week and we just took the little cart everywhere from Thomas's donuts, the carousel grocery, the beach and just cruising in general. The only drawbacks are it only has one bathroom and I'm pretty sure the fan in there is also a heater, it's right behind a teen Christian summer camp, and the golf cart is not the most powerful one I've ever driven. Overall great property for 2-4 people!!! We loved our stay!

Senior's perspective

As I told Rollie, the best part of our stay was getting to know Rollie. Couple of comments: The renovations to the apartment were excellent. The atmosphere was very quiet. The futon couch was not comfortable to sit on. We could not get the TV in the main room to come on; there was no local / national channels. For us, it was difficult to move the tall chairs under the dinette table. As pointed out to Rollie, we had issues with the golf cart maintaining speed and issues with the gas and brake pedals. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.
