Unforgettable Family Getaway in Laguna Beach

We had the most wonderful stay at this incredible property with my husband and children. Over the course of our 12-day visit, we hosted family and friends for several meals, and everyone couldn't stop raving about the house and its unbeatable location. The property itself is absolutely perfect, and the Laguna Beach setting is simply unparalleled. Each day and evening, we were treated to breathtaking views and sunsets, and the tide pools on the beach are unlike any we've ever seen. The house is thoughtfully stocked with all the essentials, making it feel truly like a home away from home. Amy was incredibly attentive and welcoming, and the Emerald Bay community is as warm and friendly as they come. It was the ideal getaway for our family's winter break—an unforgettable experience all around!

Fabulous House and Location

Our only regret is that we could not have stayed longer. The house, view and location could not have been better and exceeded every expectation. Emerald Bay is an exceptional community. We loved the private beach, pools, tennis and basketball courts, and gardens. Hopefully, we will return next September for a longer stay. The owner, Amy, was very responsive and thoughtful. Thank you for renting your house to us.

Stay of the year!!

Coming from Canada typically anything warm works but this was above and beyond. Stunning views having a coffee looking out over the ocean, very clean, great set up with 3 bedrooms. Well equipped kitchen, sharp knives which you never get at a VRBO. Perfect for cooking, private beach you can hit up on the golf cart, nice private pool tucked away! Close to anything you need, lots of art and nice local businesses. If you want a treat this is a great spot eh! 6 stars!! Thanks again for having us:)

Stunning home in Emerald Bay Laguna Beach area

I booked this home for myself and my spouse, and two adult children with their spouses.we flew from NY for my sons wedding in nearby laguna beach. This home was perfect. It was absolutely stunning. The views of the ocean from the floor to ceiling glass windows was spectacular. The house is updated with quality workmanship, appliances, and furnishings. Comfortable beds, fully stocked with basic essentials. Its in a lovely gated community with many amenities and private beautiful beach situated in a cove. Amy was a great host, we arrived early and she was at the home on our arrival. She answered any questions we had, and showed us a few pointers about the house. She was also very responsive anytime I needed to ask her something. The pictures of the home are great but in person the home really wows you! Hopefully we will get the chance to go back for a vacation in the future.
