House was cute and cozy. We enjoyed the pool and being walking distance to the beach! This is our favorite side of PCB to stay in.

Awesome everything was clean pool and all. We will definitely stay there again!

Nice home Location good a few cleaning issues but not bad Well stocked Pool excellent Would stay here again

Nice place, yard and pool great asset. Hated to leave.

We stayed at the Magnolia Crab for just over a week. The home was light and airy, and beautifully decorated. The home was fully stocked with items in the kitchen, including items that look to have been donated by previous guests (soups, vegetables, etc). We definitely added to this bounty when we left! My party consisted of 4 adults and 2 kids. I don't believe the property is sized for so many adults. The second bedroom with a queen bed was very cramped. We could scarcely move around. There was also no dresser, so we had to place our clothes on the shelves in a disorganized manner. I would definitely suggest converting that closet so that it contains usable clothing storage for long-term stays. We also found that there was not adequate seating in the common areas for a party of our size. There is no kitchen table and the island only sat 4, so we were forced to eat separate. The seating in the living room also did not accommodate our party size. It would definitely be a tight fit for parties that utilize all the sleeping space. The backyard was beautiful (with plenty of seating!) Just off the house is table and chairs; but the highlight was the pool and lanai area. I spent every morning on the lanai with my coffee. It is the thing I miss the absolute most! Unfortunately, while we were there, the weather was too cold to use the pool (for everyone except my 6-year-old); though we did walk around in the wading area a bit - just to keep her company. All and all, we had a lovely stay. Early on, there were a few hiccups, but the homeowners resolved them very quickly! I will definitely look to stay here again, but only with my husband and children. The grandparents will have to stay elsewhere!

Blue Crab was fantastic! My family of 8 fit wonderfully, Tara and Brian were amazing hosts, and we had a perfect 10 day stay! The pool was great, kitchen well stocked, beds very comfortable, and a great location! We look forward to staying again!

We fell in love with the Laguna Beach area several years ago. This house was perfect for our family of 6. Literally everything you could possibly need was at the house. The pool was perfect for our 4 teens. The outdoor space was so enjoyable. The beach was a short walk. Will definitely stay here again. Thanks to our awesome host, the process was a breeze.

Very nice and clean. It had everything you needed.

Nice little house. Backyard pool was fabulous. Loved the screened in gazebo and seating around the pool. Good selection of beach supplies and easy walk to the beach. We’ll equipped kitchen.

While the house is a little small, they utilized the space very well. We had 5 adults a teenager and a toddler with no issues. It's a short 8 minute walk to the beach and close enough to all the shops and entertainment without all the congestion and noise. Pool and backyard was awesome!

Great location. Quiet neighborhood. House was clean. The pool was perfect. The ocean is a few blocks away and you can always find free parking at their beach!

The house was just what we were looking for. It fit the 6 of us with no issues, the kids had their own space and the home is completely renovated. Kitchen was excellent and had everything we needed. Highlight is for sure the outdoor space. The pool is perfect as well as the gazebo and deck space. The house had plenty of Beach toys, floats, chairs and a handy wagon to get it all to the Beach. The walk to the beach is a little further than it appears so I would say only small negative was in the heat walking wasn't ideal. However, the house is very close to public access in 2 places and never once did we have a hard time parking and finding a spot. Over all super pleased and would for sure stay again in the future.

The pool was awesome , my kids never wanted out. The beach is just a short walk down the road. Perfect place for our Family!

Really cute house that was easy to get to. The house was so clean. Contact with owner was easy and quick response every time. The outdoor space was our favorite. Nice covered gazebo and super refreshing saltwater pool. Lazing around all morning in the pool was the best! Would definitely go back.

It was beautiful house

My mom, husband, and two kids (boys ages 3 & 5) stayed at the house. We had a great time, and the property was just what we needed. My boys loved the pool, and we spent most afternoons after nap time at the pool. We had a few issues at check-in, but Tara quickly took care of them! I am very pregnant, so my husband drove me to the beach every day (there are a few parking spots at beach access 82). The beach was never super crowded, which was great considering it was spring break week, and the beaches towards seaside were packed. My mom did walk with the boys every morning, and it wasn’t a bad walk (it’s nice and flat). Tara’s beach wagon was perfect! My mom and 5 year old rode bikes to Thomas’ Donuts most morning, which was a highlight for everyone. We would definitely rent Tara’s house again! Few notes: at the time of our rental, the ice maker wasn’t working, so plan to buy some ice with your groceries. Along with your bath towels and wash cloths, be sure to bring bath mats and hand towels as well.
