"All I can say is WOW! This is a very special place. We rented it for my son’s wedding weekend, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. I only wish we’d had a whole week to enjoy all the special parts of this home!From the beautiful living room with its arched windows to the many outdoor areas—each with a completely different vibe and its own special place to sit, relax and enjoy—there was something to discover everywhere we turned.What I loved most was the character of the home. It has that distinctive old San Juan Capistrano architecture and a warmth and personality you just don’t find in newer homes. Instead of remodeling away all of its charm, the owner embraced it. His creative carpentry and thoughtful touches throughout the house feel as though they have always belonged there. He managed to enhance the home while preserving all the little quirks and details that make it so unique.It truly feels like a one-of-a-kind home that has been loved, cared for and added to over the years without ever losing its original personality. There is so much character and history here. It was the perfect setting for such a special weekend for our family, and we feel incredibly lucky that we got to experience it.Hosts Dave and Sherry were amazing! We got a personal tour from Dave when we arrived. We will definitely be back!"

Garabaldi Bungalow STR 25-0002 with private patio

8/10 Good
"Bungalow was the cutest and coziest. Everything you might need is provided. Only thing that was a challenge was that at night is was VERY warm in the bungalow. We figured it out after a very uncomfortable 1st night sleep. We strategically used the fans provided in the closet to pump the AC air from the living room to the bedrooms… we closed the bathroom door to prevent the heat that accumulated there during the day due to skylight. Also had to position one of the fans to counter the heat coming off and radiating from wall heater pilot light….Opening up the windows and doors in the evening definitely helped and having the ceiling fans on all day. Note: it was the peak of summer and the highs were mid to upper 80’s so I’m sure this is not an issue all year…Other than that, our host was super responsive and helpful and the place was super clean and nice!"

"The property was accurate with the photos listed and was tastefully decorated and clean. It is in a residential area with its rules for parking and noise ordinance, which was not an issue for us. We found some great coffee shops close by as well as a grocery store. We thought we could walk to get provisions, but decided to rent a car, which ended up being a better decision. The beach was close as well as Dana Point for shopping and vista point for the views! I would consider another stay here."

"Great location, walking distance to restaurants, bars, shops and grocery stores. Check in and check out were simple and we had a nice stay. TV worked well and we used our streaming services. The place has a fully functioning kitchen. There is a community pool, but pool furniture HOA needs to replace the pool furniture as there were no lounge chairs and many regular chairs are broken. A couple things to be aware of are there is only parking for one car and street parking is not allowed unless you have a resident permit. Thankfully, we discovered that there is a "park and ride" about a mile away, where we moved our other car each night and picked it up each day. Also, there is not central air conditioning, which was not a problem for us because the weather was not real hot (mid 70s) the two weeks we were there. It would be uncomfortable in the second bedroom in hotter weather (mid 80s or above). Overall, we had a good stay, price was fair and location good."
