Not a three bedroom! This is a two bedroom house with a sofa sleeper in the living room - shame on me for not looking at the pictures and description more closely, but the title is misleading.If you intend on using the sofa sleeper you may confirm there is full bedding available because our first night we did not have a comforter for the sofa bed. The house is tiny (as advertised) but the rooms are stuffed with furniture and it is hard to move around. The laundry machine and dryer were both functional, but both had broken buttons and some of the settings were unavailable. Bring your own coffee grounds!The location was FANTASTIC. Perfect for shopping, walking to coffee and lunch spots, and a gorgeous beach view. Check-in and check-out was seamless.

Great location! Nice features but it needs some maintenance. Bathroom needs some cleaning of grout. Double oven but only one works, ice maker made ice after I cleared it out but didn’t dispense. Great to have washer/dryer. Love the fire pit and view. Will be returning!

Quiet Time

I was in need of some quiet time and this place was the best medicine. The views were beautiful. The house had everything that I could possibly need. The only problem was the bathroom drainage. It’s in need of a snake for the pipes. I’m hoping that this will be my future sanctuary. Thank You!!

This was a great VRBO! We’ve always stayed right near the main beach so I wasn’t sure how we’d like the location, but it was great. The view from the living room and patio was beautiful and so convenient with kids being able to go back and forth from the beach as they please. We would definitely stay here again!

Late February Getaway

We really enjoyed the property and location. Had trouble figuring out how to operate the AC, but only needed it one afternoon and didn’t bother asking the owner. I’m sure it was an easy solution. This was our second time to stay and we hope to make it again next year. It is definitely a happy place for us. Thank you for sharing it!soon. It

Great spot in Laguna Beach

You really can't beat the location of this property. It is right by the ocean with a great view. We used the kitchen a lot for meals so we didnt have to eat out as much. We highly recommend Heidelburg Cafe for breakfast and Saphire for a nice meal. Also the grocery store Raphs is nearby. The firepit was great for doing smores.Having the garage for our car was a real bonus considering the parking situation in that area. Also I should note the host was prompt in getting back to us when we had questions.
