The Bright House – Secluded Garden Oasis, Sauna & Steps to the Beach
Welcome to The Bright House, a peaceful garden retreat in the heart of Laguna Beach. Enjoy the rare combination of a quiet, secluded setting with the beach, Main Beach, downtown restaurants, shops, galleries and the walking promenade all within an easy walk.
After a day at the beach or exploring Laguna, come home to your large enclosed garden with mature trees, flowers and fruit trees. Relax in the gazebo, enjoy outdoor dining, take a refreshing rinse in the outdoor shower, or unwind in the sauna. The garden provides a peaceful place to enjoy the California sunshine while still being close to everything Laguna Beach has to offer.

THE LAGUNA BEACH EXPERIENCE
Laguna Beach is a year-round destination for beach lovers, art enthusiasts, food lovers and outdoor adventurers.
Enjoy swimming, surfing, paddleboarding, kayaking, hiking, snorkeling, tide pools, art galleries, restaurants, boutiques and beautiful coastal scenery.
Laguna is especially vibrant during its summer art season, featuring the Sawdust Art Festival, Laguna Art-A-Fair, Festival of Arts and Pageant of the Masters. These popular events typically take place from late June through early September, with dates varying each year.
The location also makes The Bright House an excellent base for exploring other Southern California destinations. Newport Beach, Dana Point and San Clemente are all conveniently accessible along the Orange County coast. Anaheim and Disneyland Resort are also within driving distance, making it possible to combine a relaxing Laguna Beach stay with visits to Southern California's major attractions and theme parks.
John Wayne Airport (SNA) is conveniently located in Orange County and is approximately a 15–25 minute drive from the property, depending on traffic.
LAGUNA BEACH WEATHER
One of the advantages of Laguna Beach is its mild coastal climate throughout the year.
The Pacific Ocean helps moderate temperatures, and Laguna's coastal setting and surrounding hills create a generally comfortable environment compared with many inland areas of Orange County. Summers are typically more moderate than inland locations, while winters remain mild.
This makes Laguna Beach an enjoyable destination in every season.
PETS
Guest pets are welcome.
We ask that pets be house-trained, supervised and walked outside for relief. Please clean up after your pet.
Guests are responsible for any damage, extra cleaning or lawn restoration caused by their pets.
Pets that are not friendly must be leashed while outside, and excessive barking is not permitted out of respect for neighbors in the surrounding homes.
ACCESSIBILITY
The entrance to the downstairs unit includes one small step. Otherwise, the unit and outdoor areas are generally flat.
Guests who have specific accessibility needs are welcome to contact us before booking so we can help determine whether the property is suitable for their needs.
NEIGHBORHOOD & NOISE
Our neighborhood is generally very quiet.
Occasionally, during peak weekend hours, some light traffic noise may be heard from vehicles using local streets as an alternative to Pacific Coast Highway (PCH).
THINGS TO DO NEARBY
Laguna Beach offers something for every type of traveler. Depending on the season, guests can enjoy:
• Beaches and swimming • Surfing and skimboarding • Stand-up paddleboarding • Kayaking • Diving and snorkeling • Hiking • Bike tours • Art galleries and festivals • Restaurants and cafés • Shopping and boutiques • Day spas and wellness experiences • Golfing • Scenic coastal drives • Family attractions and theme parks in nearby Orange County
Whether your goal is a relaxing beach getaway, an art-filled weekend, an outdoor adventure or a Southern California family vacation, The Bright House provides a convenient home base.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The property is located in a residential neighborhood. Guests are expected to respect quiet hours, neighbors and the surrounding community.
The upstairs portion of the home is occupied separately by the on-site host. Guests have their own downstairs living space and garden areas as described above.

The home was perfect! It was in the best location, everything was so cozy and we enjoyed the outdoor patio. We all slept so comfortably too. Thank you!! We'll be coming back for sure!
We had a wonderful week at Bright House. It was perfect for our family of four. We loved the location and the hosts were so friendly. We hope to come back soon!
This was my 2nd time staying at Bright House. The apartment is small, but is very clean and has a great outdoor area which we enjoyed. The location cant be beat, we walked just about everywhere we wanted to
go to. The beach, restaurants and shops are very close. We look forward to staying there again!
go.
I truly enjoyed my time in Laguna! I found the neighbors & owner were very attentive and kind. The unit has a very small bathroom and overall, it is dated but still comfortable; however, you really cannot be the location!
This was our second year staying here and it's the best summer getaway one could ask for. Minutes from the beach and downtown. Great backyard to sit outside and have a morning coffee, evening beverage, and even just enough room for playing catch. Property owners are so friendly and very responsive. A

Amazing location
Location was amazing. Was not there much but the place was pretty nice. Did not get check in information till we got there.
Right in the heart of Laguna downtown 1 street from coastal highway. Conveniently located close to the beach and shops. The beds were OK, too soft for me. The property has all needed amenities and has parking.
Nice out door setting. You can enjoy the yard and the beautiful weather. The interior is small but has everything you need. Basically you just need a place to gather and sleep. The owners are very kind and love their home. Its about 2 blocks to the downtown shopping and restaurants and a short block to the grocery store and a very short walk to the beach. Enjoy.
Nice owners/property managers and 5 star location!
The owners live upstairs, they were very very nice and ready to provide whatever you needed. Walking to town and the beach is the big draw here, fantastic location. It's great to have a parking spot or two on the owners property here AND the backyard is wonderful for relaxing outside or eating a meal in the gazebo. Thanks for a great time!
Just had a stay at The Bright House and it was absolutely perfect!! Small, cute and the location is great!! A block from the beach, shops, restaurants, grocery store and much more. Everything is walking distance. Check-in and check out was very easy and convenient. Very clean, comfy, generous with toiletries and supplies.Throughout our stay we had family visiting for the day, we hung out at the beach during the day and for dinner we bbq in the patio area.The host live upstairs and they were very kind and welcoming!! 10/10 and definitely will stay again!!
We stayed here and could not have asked for a better location. Easy walk to downtown, the beach, and art festival. Dedicated parking was huge plus. We didn't receive check-in info until 4PM...perhaps due to email confusion but we got it sorted out which was the most important thing. Huge fan of Laguna!
Vicky and her husband were excellent hosts. The place was clean, and plenty of room for my wife and I and our dogs. When we needed additional toilet paper, they were quick to respond. Lots of room in the back yard to play with our pups. The hosts live upstairs and we got to meet and interact with them a bit, which was very nice. They even interacted with our dogs in a very welcoming way. Living upstairs they are very courteous about noise and were not disruptive at all. Highly recommend you stay here, especially if you want a place right across the street from the ocean with very close access to groceries, restaurants, and shopping.
