Our two families feel so blessed to have stayed in this home. It is fully stocked with everything you could ever want! We used the pool, spa, fire pit (s'mores!), poker table (the teens loved learning Blackjack), and walked the trails nearby all while enjoying some of the best views in the area. Amy was super responsive whenever we had a question and a very gracious host. The neighborhood is quiet and safe, but only a few minutes drive to everything, which made grocery shopping and beach hopping super easy for our family. Thank you, Amy, for a perfect week! This home is truly a VRBO gem!

We were looking for a place to get together as a family ... we have grown kids on both coasts. This is the first VRBO we have ever rented, so we were a bit in the dark as to what to expect. I will simply say that it was fabulous. There were 7 of us staying and the 4 bedrooms (all pretty and cozy) and 3 baths were very adequate for our needs. The backyard is truly an oasis ... pool, hot tub, firepit and several seating areas. The view is outstanding and in the quiet, well maintained neighborhood, we always felt safe. As noted, the home is fairly close to all the shopping you'd need, plus we took many excursions ... San Diego, Hermosa Beach, Laguna Beach, etc. The house was extremely well stocked and the owner, Amy, very kindly had a s'mores basket for us as well as wine and other items. It has everything you would need to function as a comfortable home (completely stocked kitchen with spices, bathrooms with toiletries, very nice linens, etc.). The house is spacious with many tv's and seating areas ... plus a nice shaded patio in front. Also, there's a great poker table with chips ... we had an absolute blast ... even though I lost! There were a few occasions where I had a question for Amy. She was always very courteous and prompt in responding. I would absolutely recommend renting this terrific home ... it's truly special and Amy is a perfect host. Our whole family just loved our time here!

Great property with easy access to the beach and hwy. Fun backyard with awesome views. Highly recommend.

We stayed at the property in early July for one week with our daughter and son-in-law and our 4 grandchildren. The property itself is in a beautiful location, on a hill in the southern part of San Juan Capistrano, just above Dana Point, 5 minutes or less to the beach and marina. The neighborhood is comprised of similar lovely and well-maintained homes -- definitely not a "party" atmosphere, no riff-raff, a real pleasant place. The house is within 5-10 minutes of a shopping, restaurants, even a Costco, but yet is also isolated for peace and quiet. Perfect. The downstairs of the house has both a huge living room (which has a roll-away queen bed) and family room, with large smart tv's in each, plenty of room to spread out. There are 3 bedrooms upstairs (2 king, 1 double twins), and one bedroom downstairs (1 queen). All of the rooms had ceiling fans, closets & dressers. The kitchen had a large bar table, with chairs for 8 people. The backyard was beautiful, with a heated pool and spa. The pool and spa temps are both controlled remotely, which the owner graciously gives guests access to. The a/c was perfectly fine, with the guests being able to set the interior temp as needed (no thermostat lockout or restrictions, which I understand is shockingly common now on VRBO, with owners not even declaring this fact in their property description). I have to say that this property was the most meticulously clean and well-stocked property I've ever seen. When I say clean, I mean *everything* was clean: no dust, dirt, no bugs nothing. Go ahead, do a white glove test, there won't be a single piece of dust. The refrigerator was clean. The area rugs were clean. The tubs and showers were clean. The washer & dryer were clean. The kitchen and bath trash cans themselves were clean. And when I say "well-stocked," I mean you don't need to leave the house to get anything: there were plenty of towels/wash cloths, kitchenware, laundry detergent, cups, plates, mugs, cookware, plasticware, kitchen towels, baggies, napkins, toilet paper, kleenex, dish soap, hand soap, and trash bags. There were Q-tips. There was a kit for making S'mores. Two bottles of wine. Crayons and coloring books. Beach/pool towels. Inflatable pool toys. 3 cutting boards. I wish all VRBO properties were like this. Would highly recommend!
