We stayed in the Yellow cottage and it was just perfect for three of us. The king size bed was very comfy and even the pullout couch was surprisingly decent and comfortable. The linens and towels were upscale. Very fresh and clean. Kitchen had beyond the few basics including dishes, flatware, full size fridge with freezer, and a nice coffee maker to make fresh coffee. The location was ideal because it was so quiet-no noise from PCH. Very close to town, just a few minutes' drive. Very good communication and tips on staying at the cottages. Sean was extremely helpful and very prompt with replies. Some of the one star reviews are quite outdated. Years ago. Both the living room and bedroom of our yellow cottage had wonderfully quiet ceiling fans and there was air-conditioning. We stayed in a particularly warm November of 2025 and kept the windows slightly a jar all day and even in the evening - it was ideal. FYI: The front entrance has quite a few stairs. Steep stairs. There's a back entrance accessed via the high school parking lot that made it easier to load and unload, but still a bit of a challenge for us seniors with rolling suitcases (and a recent hip replacement ;)). Still, we managed and would definitely stay here again!

What is provided? A sad collection of cheap, warped plastic utensils. To top it off, the sink is partially blocked, there is some black mold on the ceiling, and there's peeling paint on the walls. The remote for the sound system doesn't work, and the rugs are filthy. The hose on the deck by the beach to clean off your feat has 2 inches of sand on it so you come out with dirtier feet than when you walked in. It's shocking to encounter this level of neglect at this premium price point. The saving graces are the truly spectacular view of the beach, and easy beach access during low tide. Beds are comfortable enough. Overall, certainly underwhelming for the price point, but despite not meeting our expectations we enjoyed our stay. With just a little more effort this place could really shine.

Built in 1962 as a classic California beach house, Blue Agave is a boutique property on the ocean side of the Pacific Coast Highway (PCH), sharing a neighborhood with dozens of cafes, restaurants, galleries, shops and breathtaking vistas. Wonderful options abound within walking distance. Blue Agave is a warm and inviting venue, whether one is seeking a romantic hideaway, a refuge for corporate or executive travel, a locale for a "girlfriends' getaway", an intimate yoga retreat, VIP quarters for those special wedding guests, or a well-appointed home and entertainment space for a family holiday. Unlike most Laguna Beach properties, Blue Agave does not require a 1 week minimum occupancy. For privacy, comfort and convenience, Blue Agave is a rare find.

They have a checkin area where you can unload all your stuff as well before moving your car to the parking lot. The cottages have a microwave & a refrigerator with a sink. You can't use the stove/oven, just FYI. I did a 1 nighter in a shared cottage in November. It was cooler weather and we were in the white house upstairs. We had the loft and another party had the side room. We have no issues sharing the common space and it was fun to experience. This April, I scored a 2 night in cottage 4B on the only rainy/gloomy weekend we've had here. Of all the luck. Within 6days of reservation date, you lose 1 night stay so it was sunk cost so I went ahead and did both nights. Easy to check in and checkout. If you are down the hill, you can get a ride on the golf carts which are very nice. 2 cars overnight as well per cabin. Rooms were clean. There is no AC so be prepared depending on your weather. I wanted to leave windows open but most don't have a screen so you get bugs and I was afraid of critters coming in. (Saw it on a youtube from someone. ) Each cottage is different but great to get away. Beautiful location! SYOY!

Ok. I grew up in Orange County and only found out about place this a couple of months ago…read more The history of the cottages is way too long to go into here, but it is very interesting. Currently there are full cottages (like an Airbnb), dorms (private rooms with shared living space),and three ADA cottages. The prices range from $53 -$338 per space, per night, all year. Reservations for the cottages open up 6 months in advance at 8am, and the dorms open up 1 month in advance at 8am. The max time length is 7 days, per reservation. They are located right on the beach in Crystal cove, with full kitchens, bedding, towels, and toilet paper. The views are GORGEOUS!!! Lots of windows, and there is nothing like falling asleep to the sound of waves crashing. We stayed in 29B which is the loft inside building 29 (4 twin beds and private bath downstairs) so cute, so comfortable, and just a lovely stay! The Beachcomber restaurant is located right on the beach as well, serving breakfast lunch and dinner. SUPER packed in summer, not such much in winter. There is a snack bar area, a couple historical building, and a souvenir shop adjacent to the restaurant. The Shake Shack is up at the top of the cliff, up a huge flight of stairs, on PCH. There is also a private meeting room located next to the reg office if you wanted to host a meeting overlooking the ocean. PLEASE NOTE FOR PARKING: the reg office is located past the ranger station, and you have to drive up there to get your keys and unload your car. Then you are given a parking permit, and have to drive your car across the street (PCH) and walk back to the cottage area, about a 10 min walk with minor hills. For the ADA cottages, you can park very close to the cottage. PRO-TIP: bring your own coffee cups, plates, silverware. Very limited in the cabin
