About this property

Your Own Private Cottage Nestled in a Secluded Garden Compound

This fully restored and renovated cottage is nestled in a private garden compound within a short walk to the village and Main Beach. The cottage has been carefully furnished to meet the needs of discerning traveler's seeking an alternative to hotel lodging.

We have selected very fine art work along with hand crafted furniture to reflect the character and charm of the original art colony of Laguna. The bathroom and kitchen was completely renovated in order to upgrade the facilities and appliances to provide maximum comfort.

Our guests especially enjoy the freedom of walking to virtually all the major attractions in and around Laguna Beach. When they return at the end of the day, they pass through the old wooden gate, walk down the steps into this remarkable garden setting.

We guarantee you will love it here!

Idyllic, cozy cottage

Lovely cottage

Lovely old group of cottages and beautiful gardens close to the village of Laguna Beach. Just a small warning to older people—there are steep steps down to the cottages. It’s not easy to lug your suitcase down and up

Exactly as expected

If you were looking for a charm and old world style, this is a terrific option. It’s a small group of cottages with a ton of privacy. Relatively peaceful. Everything worked as expected and felt as expected inside the unit. I would say the only not perfect part was that the air conditioning unit in the living room really did not keep up. The one in the bedroom did well because that was a smaller space. If you’re looking to walk to the main part of town, you can do so from these cottages but keep in mind that Laguna is pretty hilly so it’s not a super easy flat walk. I would stay again for sure.

Magical cottage

Laguna Beach is a special place and this cottage is the perfect way to experience Laguna’s magic. The details in the cottage take you back in time and give you the vibes of old Hollywood on vacation, but with air conditioning if you need it. We will be back for another stay for sure. We are even going to encourage our friends to join as they can rent one of the 4 cottages on site. It’s simply perfect.
