Mom's Getaway

The cottage is a great getaway. We spent the weekend recovering from raising teenagers! It was very relaxing. The cottage is stocked with everything you may need. We enjoyed the backyard. The beds were comfortable. The location is great for walking. We walked to both the park and beach daily. We were also close to yummy restaurants and Trader Joe's. Thank you for an easy and relaxing stay.

Great Beach Vibe Cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This cottage has a great beach vibe, it is decorated very tastefully. Very comfortable and well stocked, we really did not cook but the kitchen has utensils, pans, etc. There is an outdoor patio which we enjoyed while drinking our morning coffee. Our host was kind enough to leave a necessary and complimentary first dose of coffee.Having a washer/dryer in the unit was very convenient for us as we did need to wash my daughter's competition uniform.

Dana Point getaway

Overall a great stay! Clean house. There are alot of rules staying here but makes sense if yiud like to stay in a clean house. Being came on a weekend it was tough trying to not be too loud as we enjoyed family games (fun and laughter). Also please not, this is a 2 bedroom and not 3. The sofa bed is in the livingroom. Cutte little place, made use of the grill and hammock in the back. Again overall nice stay! Thank you!

Awesome Vacation Spot

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home was clean and well stocked. It was very comfortable for my family. The patio was well maintained and spacious. There was lots of beach gear, and we were a super close walk, drive or bike to the ocean. If you plan to ride the bikes to the beach, I would bring a bike lock. We didn’t have one with us, so we couldn’t take them to the beach.

Everything we needed for an enjoyable getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: From the cute comfortable neighborhood to the inviting patio base, this was everything we needed for myself and two kids. My husband wasn’t able to make the trip, so it was a little concerned about traveling without him. There was no need to be concerned. This sweet residence had everything we needed, and, great accessible location. The best part was the staff. Communicated very well and even gave some personal recommendations. Very helpful and responsive.

Find a different place

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The host came on the property 4 separate times during our 4 night stay. Of those 4 times, they only notified us once they would be there. In addition, the host decided to renovate the backyard with a full landscape crew during our stay. We were woken up at 7 am on our final day by the landscape crew right outside the patio door of our bedroom. A blatant violation of our privacy. To add injury to insult, the host also was asking us to checkout while the landscape crew blocked our car in the driveway. Stay away.

Stay in Capistrano Beach Cottage 2

Great reservation process with excellent summary of critical info. Place was spotless and warm. My only issue was the narrow bathroom doorway. In my power wheelchair I could not get into the bathroom. I informed the property manager (Jason) who instantly took care of us by getting us moved to the larger unit, which we will review separately. I suggested to Jason that the property listing be changed to say “manual wheelchair accessible” instead of “wheelchair accessible”; or just disclose the internal door widths so wheelchair users can plan ahead. All in all, this is a terrific property.

Great spot overall

We really enjoyed the cottage- it was very clean and is well laid out and nicely remodeled (very cute and homey). The kitchen is open and airy so perfect for a small group. The unit is the rear rental of a 2-unit building in a very nice, quiet neighborhood. The only thing that I didn't like was that the air conditioning won't go below 72 - I didn't sleep very well since I like it cooler. I understand not wanting people to crank it down and leave, but would recommend putting in a smart thermometer that adjusts up during the day or something along those lines. So personally I wouldn't stay again during summer/fall but for those who don't mind warmer temps at night it wouldn't be an issue. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here during the cooler months though, it is a great little place overall!

Things to Note...

Easy to locate & close to restaurants. Front door difficult to unlock. No overhead fans, rooms are stuffy. Stand alone fans placed into bedrooms very old & dusty. Refrigerator is also old, food is barely cold or frozen. Mr.coffee pot should be cleaned out, coffee bitter. Deco is nice, all matching. Outside patio furniture not inviting to sit on, cobwebs all over. Easy parking, quiet neighborhood.

our stay

The house was very nice and clean, it could use some updated things such as a working umbrella . We really enjoyed our stay . Some suggestion would be the backyard chairs were very dusty and it looked like it was not cleaned for a while, we did not use it because I didn't feel like cleaning it during our stay .

About the host

Hosted by Miriam

Host profile image
We are your hosts, Miriam & Bryan. Our most enjoyable trips have been in vacation homes. We like the ability to cook our own meals, plus it makes traveling more affordable so we can spend money sight seeing and doing other stuff we enjoy. However the one thing we found lacking in many vacation homes was the sense of style and luxury we enjoyed at the nicer hotels and resorts. For this reason we wanted to offer something that combined the best of both worlds. We started the first Capistrano Beach Cottage in 2015. After realizing how much we enjoyed creating memorable vacation experiences for travelers we decided to do it all over again with the second Capistrano Beach Cottage. We created both beach cottages with a 5-star resort in mind. We wanted the decor to be crisp and clean, the linens to be of the same caliber as a luxury hotel, and the patio to feel a zen and tropical vacation club. We truly hope our beach cottage sets the atmosphere of your own private resort. We want our guests to create lasting memories of their California vacation in our home :)

Why they chose this property

Capistrano Beach is an amazing community. This house gives the proximity to the beach while still providing a quiet getaway.

What makes this property unique

We live just two blocks away and always available for our guests.
