The Bright House – Secluded Garden Oasis, Sauna & Steps to the Beach

Welcome to The Bright House, a peaceful garden retreat in the heart of Laguna Beach. Enjoy the rare combination of a quiet, secluded setting with the beach, Main Beach, downtown restaurants, shops, galleries and the walking promenade all within an easy walk.

After a day at the beach or exploring Laguna, come home to your large enclosed garden with mature trees, flowers and fruit trees. Relax in the gazebo, enjoy outdoor dining, take a refreshing rinse in the outdoor shower, or unwind in the sauna. The garden provides a peaceful place to enjoy the California sunshine while still being close to everything Laguna Beach has to offer.

The living room sofa also converts to a queen-size bed, providing additional sleeping space.

Kitchen

The modern full kitchen has a slight ocean view and is equipped with a convection oven, microwave, dishwasher, full-size refrigerator, cookware, cooking utensils and other kitchen essentials.

Fresh linens, towels and beach towels are provided.

Garden & Outdoor Amenities

One of the special features of The Bright House is the large enclosed garden. Mature trees, flowers and fruit trees create a peaceful, private-feeling setting where you can relax away from the activity of downtown.

The garden includes a gazebo, outdoor dining and lounging areas, patio heater, barbecue, meat and fish smoker, water cooler, outdoor shower and sauna.

The spacious grassy area provides room to relax, enjoy the outdoors or let the kids play.

The outdoor shower is especially convenient after a day at the beach, while the sauna offers a relaxing wellness experience without leaving the property.

PRIME LAGUNA BEACH LOCATION

The Bright House is located in Laguna Village, close to the beach and downtown.

You can easily walk to nearby beaches, Main Beach, the beach promenade, downtown restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, art galleries, grocery stores, the movie theater, post office and farmers market.

The property provides an excellent combination of **beach access, walkability, privacy, garden space and wellness amenities**.

Leave the car parked and enjoy much of Laguna Beach on foot.

PARKING

Two dedicated parking spaces are available at the Glenneyre garden entrance, located on the right side of the parking area.

Each space accommodates two vehicles parked in tandem, one behind the other, allowing parking for up to four vehicles when parked properly.

If you occasionally need parking for additional vehicles, please check with the host in advance. Additional parking may occasionally be available upon request and must be approved by the host in advance.

GUEST ACCESS

Guests have access to the entire downstairs vacation rental, including the two bedrooms, living room, kitchen, bathroom, private garden, gazebo, sauna, outdoor shower and other outdoor amenities.

The home has two convenient access points. One entrance is from Ramona Avenue and provides a convenient route toward the beach and Glenneyre Street. Another entrance is available from the parking area through the garden.

The on-site host is located upstairs in a separate unit and has a separate entrance accessed via a pathway adjacent to the garden. The garden, gazebo, sauna and outdoor amenities are reserved for guest use.

INTERACTION WITH GUESTS

We respect our guests' privacy while being available if assistance is needed.

The on-site host is available to help with questions, recommendations or anything that may arise during your stay.

After booking, you will receive our welcome information with check-in instructions, house information and suggestions for enjoying Laguna Beach.

We are happy to help make your stay comfortable while giving you the privacy to enjoy your own space.

THE LAGUNA BEACH EXPERIENCE

Laguna Beach is a year-round destination for beach lovers, art enthusiasts, food lovers and outdoor adventurers.

Enjoy swimming, surfing, paddleboarding, kayaking, hiking, snorkeling, tide pools, art galleries, restaurants, boutiques and beautiful coastal scenery.

Laguna is especially vibrant during its summer art season, featuring the Sawdust Art Festival, Laguna Art-A-Fair, Festival of Arts and Pageant of the Masters. These popular events typically take place from late June through early September, with dates varying each year.

The location also makes The Bright House an excellent base for exploring other Southern California destinations. Newport Beach, Dana Point and San Clemente are all conveniently accessible along the Orange County coast. Anaheim and Disneyland Resort are also within driving distance, making it possible to combine a relaxing Laguna Beach stay with visits to Southern California's major attractions and theme parks.

John Wayne Airport (SNA) is conveniently located in Orange County and is approximately a 15–25 minute drive from the property, depending on traffic.

LAGUNA BEACH WEATHER

One of the advantages of Laguna Beach is its mild coastal climate throughout the year.

The Pacific Ocean helps moderate temperatures, and Laguna's coastal setting and surrounding hills create a generally comfortable environment compared with many inland areas of Orange County. Summers are typically more moderate than inland locations, while winters remain mild.

This makes Laguna Beach an enjoyable destination in every season.

PETS

Guest pets are welcome.

We ask that pets be house-trained, supervised and walked outside for relief. Please clean up after your pet.

Guests are responsible for any damage, extra cleaning or lawn restoration caused by their pets.

Pets that are not friendly must be leashed while outside, and excessive barking is not permitted out of respect for neighbors in the surrounding homes.

ACCESSIBILITY

The entrance to the downstairs unit includes one small step. Otherwise, the unit and outdoor areas are generally flat.

Guests who have specific accessibility needs are welcome to contact us before booking so we can help determine whether the property is suitable for their needs.

NEIGHBORHOOD & NOISE

Our neighborhood is generally very quiet.

Occasionally, during peak weekend hours, some light traffic noise may be heard from vehicles using local streets as an alternative to Pacific Coast Highway (PCH).

THINGS TO DO NEARBY

Laguna Beach offers something for every type of traveler. Depending on the season, guests can enjoy:

• Beaches and swimming
• Surfing and skimboarding
• Stand-up paddleboarding
• Kayaking
• Diving and snorkeling
• Hiking
• Bike tours
• Art galleries and festivals
• Restaurants and cafés
• Shopping and boutiques
• Day spas and wellness experiences
• Golfing
• Scenic coastal drives
• Family attractions and theme parks in nearby Orange County

Whether your goal is a relaxing beach getaway, an art-filled weekend, an outdoor adventure or a Southern California family vacation, The Bright House provides a convenient home base.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The property is located in a residential neighborhood. Guests are expected to respect quiet hours, neighbors and the surrounding community.

The upstairs portion of the home is occupied separately by the on-site host. Guests have their own downstairs living space and garden areas as described above.

Private outdoor dry sauna: $50 optional use fee. Vrbo currently displays this fee as “Hot Tub” because a sauna-specific fee option is not available.

    Nice out door setting. You can enjoy the yard and the beautiful weather. The interior is small but has everything you need. Basically you just need a place to gather and sleep. The owners are very kind and love their home. Its about 2 blocks to the downtown shopping and restaurants and a short block to the grocery store and a very short walk to the beach. Enjoy.

    This was our second year staying here and it's the best summer getaway one could ask for. Minutes from the beach and downtown. Great backyard to sit outside and have a morning coffee, evening beverage, and even just enough room for playing catch. Property owners are so friendly and very responsive. A
