Your toes hit the sand the moment you step outside. This single-level beachfront cottage sits directly on the shoreline in an exclusive gated community on Beach Road - giving you front-row access to crashing waves, dolphin sightings, and some of the most breathtaking sunsets on the Southern California coast. Private beach stairs lead you straight down to the water, and the oceanfront deck becomes your natural gathering spot from sunrise to well after dark.
Sleeping arrangements
Three bedrooms sleep up to 8 guests comfortably. The primary suite features a king bed, full-size closet, dresser drawers, and a TV. The second bedroom has a queen bed and full-size closet. The third bedroom offers a double bed and a single bed with trundle, plus dressers. Bedroom 3 also houses the in-unit washer and dryer, keeping laundry simple on longer stays.
Living space
The open living area is furnished with a comfortable sofa, generous seating, ceiling fan, and a 60` mounted TV - ideal for a movie night or catching the big game. New sliding doors open directly to the patio, letting the ocean breeze flow straight through. Room-darkening shades, extra pillows and blankets, hangers, and iron round out the in-home comforts. A ping pong table adds a fun option for rainy afternoons or evenings in.
Kitchen & dining
The fully equipped kitchen handles everything from quick breakfasts to full dinners. Appliances include a refrigerator, freezer, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, drip coffee maker, Keurig, hot water kettle, toaster, blender, and a gas BBQ grill. Cookware, dishes, wine glasses, baking sheet, and barbecue utensils are all stocked. An 8-seat dining table keeps the group together for meals.
Outdoor
Step out onto your private oceanfront deck and settle into the outdoor sofa with the sound of the surf. The gas BBQ grill is ready for evening cookouts, and the fire pit is perfect for winding down after a beach day. Beach essentials - chairs, umbrella, beach blanket, towels, and snorkeling gear - are provided so you can hit the sand without a packing list.

The home has central heating throughout. Air conditioning is not available - consistent with most oceanfront properties in this area, the ocean breeze keeps things comfortable.

Property is as advertised - beautiful and quaint. The deck drops right onto a beautiful beach you can walk early in the morning with a cup of coffee. The roaring of the ocean at night is calming. Dana point was fun for food and day trips, and Laguna beach is close. I would highly recommend Captain Dave’s for a whale and dolphin safari. We were fortunate to see a fin whale, hump back whale and a “stampede” of long nose dolphins.

Truly enjoyed our visit with “toes on the sand”! Communication with the host was great. This home was clean and the beach/surf was beautiful. Family had fun body surfing. We enjoyed watching pelicans dive for fish in early mornings and even saw a couple of dolphins swim by. The gas fire pit made for a relaxing evening on the deck.

The location is quite beautiful, literally right on the water. The condo was very clean and they even had a some games and puzzles which the children loved. The only down side was that we were advised from some locals not to swim in the water as it is somewhat contaminated in that area due to the recent rains.
