spent a few days here with our kids. beautiful view, access to the beach was good other than a little bit of drop to get down to the water but not that big of a deal. kids enjoyed some of the bikes available to ride. Had a little trouble with internet but owner responded quickly. Overall no complaints and would be happy to return!

We enjoyed our stay & the generosity of the beautiful mid 50s lady who ensured we had everything we needed - thankyou

Everything worked out great! Will be going again next year.! The experience was smooth. The owner lived next door and we left a silver trinket and she found it and packaged it and sent it back to us. What great service and degree of caring.! Do not hesitate to go to this place! AusiMark

Just the sounds of the waves was worth it, waking up to the waves and ocean view. Cottage steps from sand and water. Wonderful weekend.

Listening to the waves every day and night and having 24/7 access to the beach was amazing! Everything was clean and tidy.

Location was great, beach was awesome. Everybody had a great time. Would definitely stay again.

One of the owners lives next door. The community is private, which is nice, but you have to ask permission from the owner to have any guests over or any visitors at all. This means the owner knows everyone you have over. In my case we rented the house to stay in during the week of my daughter’s wedding. We had lots of family and friends in the area and it was a complete hassle/disaster to have anyone over. On the day my daughter and the bridesmaids were getting ready for the wedding, hair and makeup and stuff. The owners son, (middle aged man) he had full knowledge of what was taking place at the house that day, cause you need permission for all visitors, came to the house unannounced, proceeded to move about the back patio area shirtless! While my daughter and the bridesmaids are trying to have a relaxed day and get ready for the wedding. And a strange shirtless man is looking in the back sliding glass doors! When confronted of why he was there he said he was fixing something. This was not correct and absolutely unnecessary. It absolutely creeped my daughter, her bridesmaids and the hair and makeup persons out. I was very concerned at that point. We woke up one morning to see toys and other items on the sand area right in front of the patio. As we have no young children and the house next door was unoccupied and there are strict rules about only using the area in front of the house you are staying in, we can only guess that it was again the owners family that were at the house when we were not there. The house sits above the beach and the beach is not very accessible. The furniture is absolutely used. My husband had to fix the table in several areas as nails would rip clothes and skin. Some of the lights did not work and the kitchen is stocked with very used items as well. Wish I had know these things before renting, so I decided to post this account.

We loved our stay at this lovely home. It is right on the beach and gorgeous. The home is stocked with anything you could possibly need! Wetsuits, fishing poles, toys, games, kitchen supplies, tons of towels and linens. We didn’t want to leave. We will definitely be back.

We all thought this was a beautiful, older property (which added to the charm) and everything worked great. It is on the beach and all the beach toys, bikes and amenities worked very well. Easy check in/out and we loved our stay. We appreciated Nancy and Davids help on our wonderful vacation...

This property was perfect for us! It was very private with all the fun toys for the kids to play in the Ocean or biking along the beach. David and Nancy were wonderful hosts. We definitely want to come back again soon. I highly recommend renting this beach home.

We loved our time at this beach cottage. It was clean and provided a welcome retreat after long days at the horse show in SJC. We will be back for sure next year! Nancy and David were great to work with and I can't recommend it enough!

The Beach Cottage is a fantastic launchpad for a family to enjoy the area of Beach Road. A garage full of bikes, games, and movies. A 2-bunk room and a protected dry sand area right off the patio. Getting to the beach is done by a set of stairs made from bagged rocks. Wear shoes. This is typical for any Beach Road property and frankly better than I’ve seen before. Very responsive hosts. Great time and hope to return as we only scratched the surface of everything the property had to offer.

We are so thrilled with our stay at Nancy's beautiful beachside home. We live in Maryland and only get to California every couple of years. Our kids 8 and 10 loved being able to walk outside and play in the sand. The first morning we saw dolphins swimming in the distance. The house was convenient to grocery store as well as restaurants. The kids had surf lessons just up the road at Doheny Beach. The rooms were spacious and the kitchen had everything you could want to make meals. The board games were great and we enjoyed our stay and will definitely book next time we are in California.

Very nice cute beach house directly on the sand.

This is a great location in Dana Point right on the ocean! The house is clean and ideal for a family with on site laundry, kitchen, surrey and bikes!!! The owners are also super nice. We would definitely recommend this rental.

We had a great time loved the property met Nancy who was awesome

Perfect for enjoying being ON the beach with ocean sights and sounds - sunset, dolphin, pelican and star watching - Surrey to pedal up & down Beach Road, bicycles, beach toys . kitchen well equipped - 2 big tables on patio.

We have always wanted to stay in a house right on the beach and this was that! A fabulous location indeed. We explored several nearby seaside communities including Dana Point, San Clemente, San Juan Capistrano and Laguna on our way home. We enjoyed daily walks in the afternoon when the tide allowed as well as morning coffee and evening sunsets on the lounge chairs soaking in the waves. This house was extremely clean. The pictures are very accurate. What you see is what you get.. We appreciated the gated community and friendly guards. We felt very safe here. The owners were lovely and extremely responsive which is always a plus. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay . Thank you Nancy and David!

Kinda an older house, but it was nice. We had an awesome time and hope to be back.

We so enjoyed our long Memorial Day weekend in this lovely home! There was plenty of space for our family of eight - six adults and two children. The sand and beach areas were perfect for our two grandsons. They played out there all day! And the surrey bicycle - what a hit! The magnificent sunsets were a wonderful accompaniment to our s’mores. Thank you for all the special touches to help us make the best memories!

The beach house and the beach were as pictured. We loved just enjoying the view and the privacy. It was great to meet Nancy our host. Thank you Nancy and Dave for a wonderful staycation.! We would recommend this rental if you want a relaxing and fun vacation. Cathy & Bob

This property provides a great space to unwind and have fun on the beach and surrounding area.

The beach sunrise and sunsets are refreshing. The house is comfortable and well stocked. Owner is very accommodating and attentive. Great location. My Granddaughter calls it “our pretend Hawaii house”. We normally Travel with the family to the Islands a couple times a year. Mahalo Nui Loa. Dave and Nancy

Such a wonderful place to stay. The host Nancy and Dave were above and beyond accommodating. The house was so clean and cozy. Plenty of room to play on the sand and beautiful walks on the beach. We would rent this place again in a heartbeat.

We enjoyed our trip to this beautiful home right on the beach for my husband’s birthday. The house is in a small, private beach community. The house is not lavish but it was ideal and spacious for our family of 4 and had everything we needed for our 3 day stay. In addition to waking up to the incredible ocean views and playing with the kids on our own private beach and dolphin watching, our other favorite feature was the surrey bike. We looked forward to riding it down the boardwalk everyday. Thank you Nancy and David for a very memorable stay. We are already planning a trip back!

We had a great get away at this beach home over the holidays. The owners were extremely kind, very helpful and responsive when we had questions. The location was absolutely perfect for the kids to play on the sand, boogie board, beach walls and bonfires in the evenings. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for a beach get away!

Enjoyed being so close to the ocean and cycling trails,

This property is close to the ocean break. Beyond the large back patio, where we filled small pools, there was a sand backyard . We used the hose to wet the sand to make sand castles with plenty of castle making molds, sand toys, shovels, bikes, helmets, games and the house was very well stocked with about anything you may need to cook with. My grandson loves throwing rocks so Capo Beach was perfect.

Exactly as described, we had everything we needed. Owners are wonderful and attentive. The perfect vacation during these times:)
