Booked this property for 6 weeks, Jan. 29-March 12. Positives are...responsive host, good location, and extra added items were appreciated ie coffee, toiletries, general kitchen needs (ie dish soap etc) and the meditation garden overlooking the town and ocean is lovely. But know, this is an apartment on the ground floor of a home, which feels more like a basement as there is very little natural lighting that comes through due to the structure of the home. Any sufficient lighting will come from overhead ceiling lights and lamps. The space functions basically as a studio as there are no separate rooms (excl the bathroom and closet). Know that you can also hear the foot steps and some times talking of the family above living on the second level of the home. The window mounted heating/cooling unit rattles when turned, seems quite old. The description of the property and photos are misleading. To clarify, any renovation on this property seems to have been done many years ago as appliances and general condition is not new. The carpet is in great need of replacement (stained and dirty). I imagine this contributes to the unpleasant odor in the apartment. The main living /tv area is next to the only large window which is feet from the garage where people use the garage key pad to enter the home. This happens multiple times a day, so to me, it did not feel private. In the photos, the bed is shown next to the aforementioned window, it is not however set up like that in reality. The bed is in the area shown in the photos as the living area (with couch). Hearing the waves crash from your bed is not a possibility as mentioned in the description. Also, the patio shown in the photos is actually at the front door of the main house lived in by the family. This would put you sitting at their front door, which is used frequently by people coming and going, deliveries etc.
Good value for the price
We enjoyed our stay in Laguna. The location was great. Our evvery need was met quickly. Sandy and and especially Terry, the property manager, could not have been nicer.
At the end of a cul-de-sac so you don't have a lot of traffic and never had any problems with additional parking. Super nice inside with a super soft bed. If you need something firm, plan ahead. Sandy was always trying to make sure our stay was perfect. We walked our dogs down the street since there wasn't a front yard. The peek A boo views of the ocean was always nice to look at. Only great things to say about the Host and the property.
I had the pleasure of staying here for a month recently and I'm thrilled to report my expectations were exceeded! From the elegant furnishings, to the cozy floor plan, ample closet space, cable TV, wireless internet, high quality bathroom finishes and kitchen essentials, I had everything I needed to relax, unwind and enjoy my stay in gorgeous Laguna Beach, CA. The view from the property is incredible and the proximity to the local shops, restaurants and beach make it an easy and enjoyable walk to experience all Laguna Village has to offer. You can enjoy your morning coffee on the outdoor sitting area adjacent to the entrance and watch the sunset from the front windows of the unit which in itself is worth the stay! In addition to the high quality of the unit, the lovely host at the property (Sandy and Claudia) was extremely responsive to any questions I had, not to mention delightful to coordinate arrival and departure details with. All-in-all if you are seeking an exceptional place to enjoy your stay in Laguna Beach, I highly recommend this unit.
The host and hostess are so gracious. This place is perfect for a couple who just want to chill out! The laundry and cleaning facilities are so welcome and the location is great.
The Legers are gracious hosts truly wanting to make your visit like being in your own home. The villa is perfect for one or a couple, overlooking Laguna Beach which is a 10 minute walk or 3 minute car ride away!! Located in the ground level of their home at the end of a cul-de-sac, the villa is convenient to all the N/S freeways between LA and San Diego, It is a 15 minute drive to Dana Point in one direction and Newport Beach in the other direction. I would not hesitate to stay again on my next visit to S. California!! Thank you to the levers for being so hospitable!!!
Have stayed here several times and will do so again! This a wonderfully comfortable and peaceful home, very inviting! Just a short walk down to beaches, dining, shopping, etc, everything you need!
Great place to stay to be near the beach and the town. Sandy is a great host, she is right there to make our stay very enjoyable. Highly recommend this place
Beautiful place on beautiful grounds on a beautiful and quiet street. Loved my near month stay... you can walk everywhere. I had a car and you have your own parking spot which was perfect for when I used the car, but you can walk literally everywhere! I enjoyed the view of the full ocean and the church bell chimes sitting in the meditation garden. Gorgeous flowers and peace surround you in that space!
