About this property

Just doors to scenic Heisler Park’s meandering paths and iconic cove beaches.

Significant reductions off the nightly rate of $495! Temporarily, we are allowing a three night minimum!! Add in a $295 cleaning fee and bed tax of 12% on nightly rate to see your total. Incredible opportunity to vacation on prestigious Cliff Dr among 5M-25M single-family homes. This is a PEACEFUL residential neighborhood yet walking close to Laguna Village, Heisler Park and beautiful beaches doors away. We are not in the crowded tourist areas that are so congested in Laguna Beach. We are in North Laguna Beach, which is another world of Laguna Beach Escape the troubles of the modern world and live like the locals, where life is one long holiday. Drop your shoulders, recharge your batteries, fill your senses and your tummy, all just steps away from sand between your toes.

LagunaBeachCharmers offers central Heat and Air Conditioning (rare to have AC in Laguna), close-in sweeping ocean views in a premier residential location(without partying renters all night long), a three minute walk to beaches and a short walk to the Laguna Village, no need for a car. If any of that matters to you, then this is your place! All the other rentals on this site that are lower priced are lower priced for a reason: junk quality indoor and outdoor furnishings and amenities, no beach proximity, weak peak a boo or no ocean views, no convenient walkability, no convenient parking, metered parking, no privacy, or no city short term rental permit on the property. (we have had our STR permit since 2003 in Laguna Beach.).

Enjoy our close-in panoramic ocean view personal deck for complete relaxation, reading, or just chillin and gazing. Or within a couple of blocks you might want to try paddleboarding, paddle yoga at Fishermans Cove or Divers Cove, or surfing, kayaking, rent scuba gear, snorkeling gear, get scuba certified, go out on scuba boat, (all available one block away), rent electric bikes, have a massage or pedi/mani, hike the neighborhood trails, explore the tide pools, walk a block to Pavillions supermarket (with a Starbucks inside and a very upscale wine shop with amazing prices) for convenient stay-in ocean view deck dining, or shop for adult beverages or healthy indulgences: Husky Boy great burgers, Jan's for super healthy breakfast smoothies and Açaí bowls, and lunch; Reunion Kitchen dining and full bar, Asada Mexican with margaritas; Black Dot Vietnamese coffee (strong) with take out breakfast and lunch, and more, all just doors away.

Besides our sandy beaches you can tour Disneyland and Legoland, we are located between the two. After a long day put the exhausted kiddies to bed and have after-hour cocktails on our deck, enjoy our smart TV in the comfortable living room, or relax in our cozy romantic master bedrm. This 1930s cottage is tastefully furnished in coastal appropriate appointments, no “thrift shop or garage sale finds”, with panoramic ocean views on prestigious Cliff Drive. One queen bedroom with hotel linens, full bath, granite kitchen with all the amenities, and original preserved beautiful trestle beams and hardwood floors throughout. Grand living room with trundle twin beds suitable for minors, Primary bedroom, living room plus personal deck overlook the ocean. All linens provided and professionally laundered. We have great WIFI. We provide beach chairs, towels and beach umbrellas

Walk one block to the beach and to the entrance of Heisler Park which is perched along the waves for a breathtaking short walk to the enchanting Laguna Village with restaurants of every category, high end or taco stand, and local shopkeepers. Free daily trolleys can be picked up right across the street on Coast Hwy.

WE ARE 1 of Approx 50 LEGALLY PERMITTED VACATION RENTAL BUILDINGS BY THE CITY OF LAGUNA BEACH. WE GUARANTEE YOU WILL NOT BE SHUT DOWN PRIOR TO OR DURING YOUR STAY AND FORCED TO FIND A LAST MUNUTE HOTEL. We have been a vacation rental since 1997 and permitted since 2003.. We book up early and quickly.

We have a strict no smoking policy on the whole property. The City of Laguna Beach also has a strict non-smoking policy everywhere in the city. This includes e-cigarettes, vaping and all other types of smoking.

We are not suitable for partying groups. Our mission is to offer a "live like a local" awesome beach vacation while at the same time being located in walk-friendly north Laguna Beach.

Do not be concerned that the property backs up to the iconic Hwy 1. It is not a traditional "highway" . It is the iconic state Coastal Highway 1 that weaves up the Pacific Coast to Canada. In Laguna Beach it is just an ordinary main artery street with stop lights every couple of blocks. There is a garden courtyard buffer between the street and the cottage and the Bedroom and Living Room are on the Cliff Drive side and overlook Cliff Dr and the ocean across the street.

Laguna Beach is consistently among the top 10 beach resorts in the U.S. The Laguna Beach beach-side lifestyle is all around us, not partying groups that are so popular in our neighboring towns, but if you are coming here for a totally quiet experience our place may not for you. LagunaBeachCharmers two vacation rental cottages are for visitors looking for a vibrant beach "live like a local" escape with all the amenities of a bustling, popular, upscale Southern California beach town. At times there will be trucks, trolleys from the free trolley route we are on, occasional neighborhood construction, barking dogs, or loud motorcycles, exotic car show offs or modified exhaust cars (all whose revved up noise is forbidden in Laguna but they do it occasionally anyway), sirens or more, that pass by our cottages and by our immediate neighborhood of $5M+ homes. More than half of our guests return time and again.

Also, while we have great street parking in front of the building for eight cars, in the hot weekend months those places fill up fast with beachgoers. Please be patient and a place will open up for you usually after 5 PM until about 10 AM. Weekends are the busiest. Once you are at the cottage, unless you are taking day trips, you will rarely have to move your car as we are a "walkability" neighborhood with a trolley stop a few yards away.

Also, unusual for homes in Laguna Beach, we have installed central air-conditioning! We normally have a very mild temperature range but more and more we have occasional heat waves. We also have portable fans and ceiling fans.

If you wish to have an incredible stay and need a two bedroom, please check out our listing 310136. It's perfect for four people or a couple with two older children, but not suitable for children under seven. Or have a great great experience and book both cottages for up to 8 people.

For your safety and health concerns: we offer contactless, keyless entry. Our building is very well configurated for physical distancing. Our 3 cottages are well separated and you do not have to interact with any other guest. Only our laundry room would have 2 other possible cottages share. Our cleaning crew are well trained in sanitizing and take all necessary precautions. All bedding, duvet covers, etc, are washed at a local professional laundry with each new guest. On site we have a brand new LG washer and dryer, state of the art for high-efficiency and sanitation. These are offered complementary along with detergent for our guests.

Cozy cottage by the sea
This cottage was perfect for us! It's older but very clean, well stocked, and cozy. It has everything you need, including beach chairs and toys. Our 11 year old daughter was very comfortable on the daybed in the living room. The cottage is an easy 5-10 minute walk through the neighborhood to several beautiful coves. It's also within walking distance to a very nice grocery store, coffee shops, and a restaurant. I suggest leaving your car at the cottage and using the trolley system to go downtown or to the main beach. There are several parking spots available on the street in front of the condo, but it can be tough to find a spot during the day, when the locals come to the beach. And it was impossible to park in front of the cottage on Sunday when we arrived! Just unload, find a spot wherever you can, and then move your car when the beachgoers go home that evening. Sunday was definitely frustrating with the parking situation, but it's the only day we really had issues with finding a spot. The cottage was in a great location for us to explore Southern California. We went to Disneyland one day and down to the San Diego Zoo another day. Otherwise, we spent our days in Laguna Beach. Lots to do, and it has a great vibe. Gerri, the property owner, was in communication with us often and was very nice and helpful! We ended up meeting her on Wednesday when they came to stay in the main house right beside cottage. She goes above and beyond to make sure you have a great stay!

Beautiful home, ocean views!
We loved the week we spent here while vacationing for summer break! Two beaches are right out the front door, both easily walkable. This made visiting the ocean stress free. Waking up to the ocean view was an added delight. 💕 This cottage was well stocked for cooking (I do a lot of it), and had all the comforts for meeting our needs easily made available to us. Gerri is pleasantly communicative, and her extensive welcome guide is as extremely helpful in navigating our stay. We appreciated the unloading zone, and that the home has PCH out the back door, which means added beach parking and restaurants/stores within walking distance. It’s also convenient having a shower on the patio for rinsing off sand. The home stayed very clean due to this, and we weren’t wrestling with sand indoors or in our vehicle. This is our new favorite spot and first choice for visiting the beach! 🏖️

Truly Charming!
We loved our week at Gerri and Art's cozy cottage in Laguna Beach. Minutes to a gorgeous beach and a wonderful park along the water; you couldn't ask for a better location. You are also easily able to walk into town to visit restaurants, shops, galleries, etc. The cottage itself is so cute and comfortable. Gerri and Art have put a lot of time and effort into making sure you have everything you need...beach chairs, beach towels and an umbrella, every utensil if you wish to cook, spices and kitchen basics, plenty of paper towels, zip lock bags, aluminum foil, etc. So thoughtful and helpful! They even have ( in addition to an iron) a great clothes steamer...better than the one I schlepped with me! You will love having your meals on the deck with a beautiful water view. We were in need of a deep rest and certainly got one. Thank you, Gerri and Art. We have traveled extensively and your listing is now one of our favorites and you both are one of our favorite hosts. See you again, Linda and Jim

This beach cottage was everything we could have ever wanted (and it’s even cuter in person)! You can tell the owner is very thoughtful in how they stock and furnish the place. We instantly felt at home. The location was ideal too! A quick walk to the coffee shop (great coffee btw), grocery store, or the beach! Overall a lovely stay and we hope to come back one day.

Charming Cottage - Great Location
This vacation was a dream come true for us. We researched many properties before choosing this one and were not disappointed - comfy, cozy, well equipped, clean, amazing views and sounds of the ocean from the deck and bedroom. The location is exceptional. Lovely, quiet neighborhood. Easy walk to beaches, Heisler Park walkway, downtown Laguna, restaurants, grocery store, etc. The owners were lovely to work with and quick to respond to questions. We will be back!

Our young family of four had a great stay at The Laguna Beach charmer cottage. It felt like our own piece of paradise for the week. The cottage is perfectly located within close walking distance to several beaches in North Laguna and close to multiple trolley stops which provide free service into town and to South Laguna. The cottage has expansive ocean views from the living room, deck and bedroom. The cottage has been nicely updated while keeping its original charm. The cottage is well stocked with everything you could need for a beach vacation including beach towels, chairs, umbrellas, toys and boogie boards. We’re already dreaming about when we can come back!

Property was as described. Great location, 1 block to the beach. Well stocked with kitchen supplies and ancillary items. The owners were very nice and communication with us was great. Only thing I will caution you on is the neighborhood is right next to coastal highway. If noise bothers disturbs you, then you may want to locate further away from the main drag. We loved the house and the views, and the noise didn’t bother us.

About the host

Hosted by Gerri

Host profile image
We (Art and Gerri) have lovingly restored our 1920s LagunaBeachCharmers, both our one bdrm cottage and our two bdrm cottage. Our two cottages are always a work in progress. We love to restore older homes and have done so in our home towns of Glendale and Pasadena, CA, as an avocation as well as a business. It is our mission to preserve the Southern California architecture of the past. Here in Laguna Beach we are constantly restoring one of the last remaining original beach cottages on Cliff Dr. Gerri is a graduate of UCLA and a former elementary school teacher. For the past 48 years, I have been a real estate broker with my own boutique real estate company and Art is our property manager and manages our investments, as well as working on his hobby, restoring 1950s vintage cars. Art has worn many hats as he is retired from the LAPD and also a retired General Contractor. Along with our four adult children, four grandchildren and our friends, we have enjoyed many days at our beach house and feel very fortunate to have such a special vacation home. For our many guests, new and returning, we enjoy providing a special vacation escape away from home.

Thank you

our Laguna Beach vacation rental since 1997

Why they chose this property

We were fortunate to find a fantastic coastal vacation home location on the renowned California Riviera. We have specactular close in, panoramic ocean views combined with adjacent beach access as well as walkability to the charming Laguna Village. We have traveled to many coastal areas throughout the world including southern Spain, a dozen visits to Italy, Sicily, Gibraltar, Croatia, French Riviera, South American Atlantic and north Africa, Western Spain and France along the Atlantic as well as up and down the California Coast, Oregon Coast, East Coast and Mexican Riviera. Whenever we are home here in our vacation spot of Laguna Beach, we marvel how this is one of the most spectacular vistas we have seen in the world, if not THE MOST SPECTACULAR place on earth. Yet, Laguna Beach remains a small beach town...but with sophisticated restaurants and amenities. One can relax in quiet serenity or find stimulating activity and entertainment all just minutes away.

What makes this property unique

We have operated our two vacation rentals since 1997. We have a city permit in good standing with the city since 2003. Be aware that unpermitted short term lodgings are being vigorously pursued by the City of Laguna Beach to stop operating. With us, your “LagunaBeachCharmers” vacation rental is guaranteed to be available when you arrive.

Our LagunaBeachCharmers offer awesome sweeping close-in ocean views as well as a premier location surrounded by private upscale Laguna Beach $5-25M coastal residences. We are an easy walk past about 10 homes to three spectacular sandy cove beaches, as well as a seven block walk to the charming Laguna Village. A short 8-door stroll to Heisler Park provides awesome vistas along meandering pathways above the beaches of the Pacific below. Heisler Park takes you to town, Las Brisas restaurant patio overlooking the Pacific...enjoy yummy chips and appetizers, and, if you so desire, a myriad of enticing margaritas...and then you have just a short walk home!
Our cottages are fantastic and convenient in a serene ocean view setting. We are a stones throw to a burger stand, a block to a supermarket, UPS store, gourmet dinner house, magnificent authentic tacos and Mexican food, great pizza, coffee houses, gym for day pass, and other. Located a 3 min drive north to Crystal Cove State Park, Newport Coast (Mastros, Trader Joe’s, Javier’s, The Beachcomber), Newport Beach and Pelican Hill, one can experience many delights of being surrounded by some of the most expensive real estate in the world. Hotel rooms in nearby hotels range from $500-1000+ per nite, and are one room. Our cottages are half those prices and are 3-4 rooms each, like a small house. Combined with nice furnishings appropriate to the cottage style, not cast offs /garage sale pick ups common to many vacation rentals. We provide an alternate to dining out each meal by providing upscale granite kitchens w/ al fresco dining patios (the “best table” in LB!) for stay-in.
