About this property
Pelican’s Perch STR23-0031
Pelican’s Perch is ideally located in the heart of Dana Point’s historic Lantern District and walking distance from restaurants, shops, beaches and the harbor. On the ocean side of Pacific Coast Highway, you are only minutes walking to the harbor or one of five beaches. Take your pick of restaurants at every price point on Del Prado, only a block away. Stroll through the historic Santa Clara neighborhood, where Pelican’s Perch is located, and see historic 1920’s homes sit side by side with modern beauties and enjoy overlooks and parks at the end of every street with gorgeous views of the harbor and ocean.
This second floor duplex guesthouse is accessible by stairs only and was newly constructed in 2023. The unit boasts an open plan living, dining and full kitchen, private patio/balcony, 2 bedrooms and one uniquely designed bathroom with separated toilet and shower compartments to allow multiple users while maintaining privacy. The professionally designed décor sets the mood for your luxuriously casual coastal getaway. The first bedroom has a king bed, two dressers, closet and a bench. The second bedroom can be set up with two twins or a king bed to suit your needs and also has two dressers, a closet and bench.
Common areas provide a grassy lawn, fire pit and outdoor kitchen with gas barbeque grill and electric smoker. Fruit trees and fresh herbs are shared when in season.
The unit also provides a one-car garage space and one additional on-site parking space.
Whether you enjoy water sports, whale watching and hiking; are a history buff or art lover; or love the night life, Dana Point will satisfy you. Located halfway between the amusement parks, art galleries and museums of Los Angeles and the parks, waterfronts and zoos of San Diego, Pelican’s Perch is the perfect destination for your Southern California adventure.
**Please note we have a VERY strict no smoking policy. This is a no smoking property. Absolutely no smoking of any kind (including vaping, candles or incense burning) in the unit, on the premises or in the neighborhood. (Dana Point has a no smoking in public spaces ordinance.)
