Sweet cottage in a great location

The cottage was exactly as described, very charming and beachy, and we loved it! The beds were really comfortable. The only thing lacking was any kind of tin foil, saran wrap or any pantry items, other than salt/pepper, but there is a Ralph's close by.

Stay Summary

Good Location, easy access, nice yard, the house was clean. Was very hot inside on arrival and took a while to cool off, could use a fan in the downstairs bedroom (we brought our own) as I got hot in there even with A/C on, a posting should mention limited closet space if any. Some repairs need to be made, cabinet door by the refrigerator, lamp lense in the living room (was that way on arrival). Very minimal pots and pans. Overall the property worked for our stay.

Not as listed; poor communication.

Property was in a good location but the accommodation was not as advertised. Furniture and fixtures were broken and poor quality. Not enough seats for our family of four. Bare bones kitchen that we never used as it was inadequate. This is a step or two up from camping. Repeated attempts to communicate with property management went unanswered.

Great location, basic kitchen

The house is in a fantastic location in downtown Laguna Beach, easily walkable to the ocean, shops, restaurants and a Ralph's two blocks away. It's very clean, and the bed in the upstairs room was very comfortable! The kitchen is basic -- salt and pepper only, and none of the items like olive oil, spices, etc., you hope to have if you're planning to do some cooking. Similarly, I asked for dish towels (there's no dishwasher), and got one dishtowel. Some of the photos online are outdated and/or appear mixed up with another property. The living room is now a three-person sofa (no chaise portion), and the kitchen table has been swapped out (the chairs would benefit from new cushions that haven't been repurposed from outside). There is one small outdoor area, with a picnic table. Response times and communication from the owner were mixed.

Blue Cottage Review - Recommend But Could Use Some Enhancements

Clean, old style beach cottage. Very easy check in and out. Could use a patio table and chairs out back vs the old picnic table and maybe some beach chairs and a sun umbrella. No instructions as to how to turn on the patio lights and mgr did not respond to my text. Not a big deal. Could use a pedestal fan downstairs and upstairs to help direct the AC air. The fees and charges pushed the nightly cost over $400. Quiet, nice neighborhood and close to everything.

Perfect cottage by the beach

The location of the house was ideal - close to the beach and restaurants. The house itself was clean, well-stocked and comfortable. The perfect size for our family. If I am being picky, the upstairs bedroom gets a little warm, but this is easily solved by planning ahead and turning on the a/c unit a few hours before bedtime. We would definitely stay here again!

The good and the bad…..

Location is great for walking to Orange Cafe for breakfast, smoothies right around the corner, a great gym right across the street where you can get day and weekly passes, Ralph’s for groceries and a 10 minute walk into the Village for dining and shopping. The courtyard is very quaint and private. Spent a lot of time there. The cottage is very small with slanting ceilings on the second floor so plan on putting small kids upstairs. The condition inside is very worn. Bathroom and kitchen sink area could definitely use new caulking and some freshening up. Rent this space for the convenience of the location and not so much for the interior of the cottage.

Perfect

This is the perfect place to sleep if you're just wanting to hang out at the beach all day. It was a little low on extra blankets and towels, so bring some beach towels of your own, and since there's no dishwasher, I'd recommend bringing disposable plates and cups, but otherwise, the beds were super comfortable, and it's been beautifully decorated. We loved being within walking distance of downtown Laguna and a 3min walk to the beach. Since the house is clean, crisp, and white, I also recommend bringing a sleeping mask if morning sun waking you up might be an issue ;) We would definitely book again.

Terrific

I want to start by saying thank you for opening up this jem of a home to people looking for a nice get away. Location couldn't be better. Walking distance from everything Laguna has to offer yet tucked away for privacy. Well stocked with everything needed in the kitchen, bedrooms, and bath. If I ever visit Laguna again I hope the dates work out to stay with you again. Very professional care from the reservation until our departure. Mahalo again..

Great location in cute cottage.

We enjoyed our stay at the Blue beach cottage. Check-in/out procedures and communications throughout our stay were excellent. The location is indeed a short walk to the ocean. There are plenty of stores for shopping and amenities nearby. The unit itself is a small cottage that has been simply refurbished for rental. It is neat and clean. If you're looking to stay in an authentic lived-in residential beach cottage, this is not it. The furnishings, decorations and supplies are more reminiscent of a nice motel suite than a fisherman's shack. We would stay again and will recommend this unit to our friends.

What makes this property unique

It's very close to everything Laguna has to offer and very easy walking distances.
