The Manzanita Cottages are a truly spectacular place to stay when visiting Laguna Beach. The cottages are ideal for couples wanting a romantic retreat or even a family on vacation. I have stayed in the Red and Yellow cottages and really loved them both. The rooms were immaculate and the beds were very comfortable. Plus it is only a short... More

My wife and I were looking for a quaint getaway for rest. The pictures reminded us of the Shire from Tolkien's Hobbit, which we love. We were not disappointed. Quiet area. Great attention to detail within the cottage and the landscaping. We actually read a bit from The Hobbit in front of the warm fireplace. The layout of the 4... More

Have you dreamed of getting away to your own little cottage to write, paint, dream or just relax? Looking for a romantic getaway? This is the place. I stayed at the Yellow Cottage and loved it! Sunlight poured through the floor to ceiling windows during the day and the beautiful fireplace kept things cozy at night. Butterflies flit around the... More

So glad we chose to stay at Manzanita Cottages for two nights last week. We stayed in the "Green Cottage" - it was immaculate, comfortable and very relaxing. It was MUCH nicer than staying in a hotel on the PCH. It's tucked away in a quiet neighborhood a few blocks uphill from the beach and from the restaurants. It's all... More

In reading all of the reviews I noticed most of the stays were during the offseason and the weather is comfortable. I booked a stay in the Blue Cottage for a week this September. They look nice and I thought it would be a nice experience in lieu of a hotel. Being from TX and I have stayed in Laguna... More

We have a long history of delighting guests. In fact, we are the highest rated vacation rental property in Laguna Beach, so it's very disturbing to read these distorted comments. Although she claims that I was rude to her, I never had a conversation with her. It was quite unfortunate that the guest adopted a hostile attitude from the outset... More

My wife and I just returned from another amazing stay at the Manzanita Cottages. We visited to celebrate our third wedding anniversary and are never disappointed by the great communication and high level of customer service by Diane the property manager and the owner. Thank you to the entire Manzanita Cottages Team! Best Regards, Christopher, Amy & Charlie

My husband and I found these cottages on trip advisor after deciding last minute to drive to Laguna instead of Monterey Ca. Most of the bigger hotels were booked so I decided to check out other options.. Best decision I made!!! This place was so enchanting and we felt so elated that it was better than imagined! The location is... More

We recently stayed in the Red Cottage. The property manager does an amazing job here! The grounds were perfectly groomed and gorgeous. The flowers were in bloom and the space was picture perfect. Just to sit in the outdoor areas with a glass of wine was one of the most relaxing and enjoyable parts of our trip. The cottage was... More

My husband, son and I stayed in the blue cottage and our daughter and her family stayed in the yellow one. This was the perfect choice for a multi-family vacation, much better than a traditional hotel. Both cottages are beautifully decorated, the beds are super comfortable, and while the kitchens are tiny, they are well stocked with anything you might... More

My husband and I are planning a trip to Laguna and came across these lovely cottages. I hunted high and low for a good reason not to stay here and I just could not find one. Every review boasts of careful attention to detail, every cottage being clean, comfortable and cozy. The location is great and the price fair, but... More
