The association recently returned the minimum lease requirement to 30 days. They still allow a maximum twelve month term. One of the tenants needs to be at least 55 years old. Any guest of theirs at least 45 years old also receives a membership card and full use of all the amenities. Any guest of theirs under 45 years old is allowed to stay for a maximum of 2 months. Guest under 45 years of age are allowed to use the amenities, but there are restrictions and they may be charged an additional fee. We recommend you visit the United Mutual website at Laguna Woods Village for the association requirements.
The association limits the number of residents to 3.
The association requires a 10 day advance for all resident registration. Due to the policies of the association, once we have applied for your membership, the full price of the rental will not be refunded, unless another renter is found. The registration cost charged by the association cannot be refunded. The association approves every renter and requires a credit check, which is included in the cost of the unit. The association also limits the term of your stay from 1 months to 12 months per rental period. Though consecutive 12 month rental periods are allowed.
Due to the current situation, we recommend paperwork be completed with the association as soon as possible. We will email the packet to you - please fill out the documents, sign and return to us.
You are allowed $100/mo limit for the electric bill. You are responsible for anything over this amount.
Damaged/missing items are the responsibility of the guest. An optional check in sheet can be provided at the time of arrival.
Check in time is 4:00 pm and check out time is 11:00 am. Requests for early check in or late check out may be approved at no additional cost, based on availability.
Due to the strong demand for our unit, we ask that you do not extend your stay without our approval. At times we may be able to allow you to extend your stay for you, but please try to give us as much notice as you can. Most reservations are back to back (end at the end of the month and the next on starts the same day), which gives us very little time to do a walk through for the exiting party and to get the unit ready for the next party. If you overstay without our approval, you can be charged for the lost income from the next party who reserved the unit and any fees or charges we incur including, but not limited to legal fees, expenses we incur and lodging fees for the next party. These costs can amount to a large amount, so please be courteous to both us and the next party.
Additional charges may be billed to you if there is damage or extra expenses we incur. An example would be in the following areas: damage to the unit, damage to the furnishings, damage to the carport and storage cabinets, electric bill (over $100/month), charges stemming from requests to the association, billed items or fines from the association and all cost related to overstaying your reserved time. If you do not return the membership cards, there will be a $50 charge per card. If you do not have time to return the cards, please leave a note in the unit with the membership cards and the property manager will return them for you.
We ask that when you leave, you clean up and leave our home in a condition similar to when you arrived. Our cleaning charges are for two people to clean for an hour (two man hours). It's enough time for a good wipe down, floor cleaning and final run of the linens. Any additional cleaning time will be the responsibility of the renter.
We are very fair in our assessments and we just ask that you return the unit to us in the same condition when you arrived.

Ratings and reviews
8.0 / 10.0
This unit is overall very livable and in a nice neighborhood. It was very clean, the bed was quite comfortable, and we enjoyed the green space out the back balcony. For the price, it's a good value. You should be aware that the en suite bathroom lacks a door and is open to the bedroom. Also, the "king bed" in the listing is actually a daybed. Given our monthlong stay, the kitchen is functional but not well supplied for actual cooking (ie lacking bowls, baking pans, etc.). Our main suggestion is to improve the customer service for renters: a broken TV took a week to replace and the check in was delayed two hours while the owners were cleaning the unit. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and the many activities available in the community.

8.0 / 10.0
Good Service
The owner was very accommodating with our schedule which constantly changed. He even came from Pasadena to open the door when it was locked before we arrived. The master bed was very comfortable. Neighbors are very friendly. Kitchen is a little old, but usable.
