Great location, exceptionally clean, comfortable beds, just as advertised. House had everything we needed. Only complaint would be lack of comfortable living room furniture for five of us to sit and visit for the evening after our walking tours of Laguna.

Laguna Cozy Cottage

The property was perfect for our family of 4 adults, a toddler and preschooler. It was clean, well-stocked and very comfortable. The house is one block from the beach in a perfect location. We thoroughly enjoyed the stay and would go back again. We would recommend it highly.
