Excellent stay

Great location, exceptionally clean, comfortable beds, just as advertised. House had everything we needed. Only complaint would be lack of comfortable living room furniture for five of us to sit and visit for the evening after our walking tours of Laguna.

WONDERFUL HOUSE AND LOCATION!

We recently stayed at this property at had the best time! The house is in an amazing location close to the beach, Main Street and all that downtown Laguna has to offer! We where able to walk to town easily with two strollers and everyone was very comfortable at the house as it is clean and spacious! You really can’t go wrong staying here and we can’t wait to rebook our next trip!

Laguna Cozy Cottage

The property was perfect for our family of 4 adults, a toddler and preschooler. It was clean, well-stocked and very comfortable. The house is one block from the beach in a perfect location. We thoroughly enjoyed the stay and would go back again. We would recommend it highly.
