“Family Fun in Laguna” Excellent property. Nice granite counters, stone tiled shower, new floor, 1 1/2 baths. Unit 1 is behind the other units on the property but share a common deck overlooking the beach. Spent 3 days soaking in the sun, surf and Laguna Beach downtown. Parked the car for 3 days and took short walks (5-10 minutes) to beach and downtown each day.

“Excellent !” Wonderful unit, beautiful view, friendly staff. Would definitely return.

“Great Place” My wife and I really enjoyed the Retreat. Our unit (more like a stand-alone mini-house) was spacious and had quality fixtures, a nice fire pit, gas grill, and was only steps from the beach. Laguna has some great restaurants but our personal kitchen area was so nice we ended up cooking most of our own meals (saving likely $100 per day on food -- that adds up quickly over a week-long stay). In addition to our spacious outdoor eating area, there is a large communal space with several dinner tables right next to the unit. So we had a number of dinners watching the sun set and the surfers catching the last waves. The staff was also super friendly and attentive. I got to know the woman running the front desk and she got right on any request and was legitimately excited to discuss things to do in town. She was very customer service oriented and clearly loves her job. They also provided several beach amenities that made the trip more enjoyable, including: beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, and large towels. Plus, they had great deals with local businesses (restaurants, rental shops, etc). We got a 2 for 1 deal on an amazing whale watching tour and ended up seeing a Blue Whale up close and personal. As for location, it's right south of downtown (a few blocks at most), so you are a stones throw from the action but far enough away from the core so nights are quiet. Overall, I would highly recommend staying here over the moderate to nice hotels in town. You end up paying the same amount and get much, much more and have the privacy and flexibility you expect from the price tag (that you typically do not get from large hotels).

“The Retreat, Laguna” What a find. Fantatsic location, villa, amenities. Everything is there for a fanatastic vacation, Cannot praise it enough. Maureen is a fantastic host

“Great oceanfront views...” We live in the desert, so the beautiful ocean breezes, and listening to the waves are a very special treat for us. We found Villa Leone to be a lovely "retreat" and enjoyed our stay very much. The location was very convenient and a nice little walk to anywhere we wanted to go in Laguna. The staff was very helpful and accommodating. The only negatives are that we found the unit small (for our liking), and since Suv's cannot be parked at the property, we needed to walk a few blocks to get to our vehicle when we needed it. Otherwise, the unit was in great condition, ocean views wonderful, and we enjoyed our one week stay very much.

“A true gem!” After searching for a local hotel with beach access in Laguna Beach and feeling very underwhelmed, a friend had suggested trying Vrrbo.com. That's when I hit the jackpot after stumbling upon The Retreat! This place has such a relaxed feel; much more intimate than you could find at any hotel in any beach city. The booking experience with Jason was a pleasure, as he was very flexible and accommodating. On site, Maureen made us feel welcome right away and was more than helpful during our brief stay. The location and beach access are nearly perfect. The rooms are in great shape and the special offers from local businesses for guests was a major, unexpected bonus! I can guarantee I will be back for a longer stay!

“Beautiful place to stay” This place is perfect. We had 6 people in the unit and each one can't wait to return. It's clean, up to date, and has every amenity you need. There is no place closer to the beach and tgd fird pits are an added plus Onlg have good things to say.

“Relax in Style” If relaxation is your goal--this is the place! Private spacious courtyard outside, warmly decorated, cozy comfort and all needed amenities inside. Our stay was short, but sweet! Special thanks to Paulette for the beautiful bouquet of flowers from her garden waiting in our room. It was a thoughtful birthday greeting. Thanks too, for your wonderful hospitality. We'll be back :-)

“Incredible weekend at Laguna Beach” The weekend at 150 cress in Laguna Beach started with a recognition that we were in a great house with great amenities but as always. Location location location. We went for a walk within 1 hour on the beach it was fantastic to be right at the ocean Next was the evenin at the roof bar to etch the sunset an mingle with various people Saturday was miraculous. 3 whale spouts. One breach and seals and dolphins. Sunday was restful and Monday reenergized
