Beautiful Light and Bright Condo

Welcome to Petite Retreat! Come stay in our lovely newly remodeled, open- floor plan condo! Up the stairs to this "mini pent house. " This property is light, bright and quiet. It has vaulted ceilings, new paint, a cozy fireplace and lovely deck to enjoy with no one above you. Perfect for a single person, couple or small family. Fully equipped kitchen for the discerning chef. Brand new comfy Cal King bed with all linens and towels provided. Everything you need to move right in and enjoy this great location!

You will have the amenities of a hotel in a gated friendly neighborhood setting. The condo includes access to Pool, 2 Hot Tubs, workout room, and the most breathtaking well-maintained trail from inside the community’s gates. Your toes will be in the sand within a 15-20 minute walk through lush landscape, past the Monarch Beach Resort, to the beach of your choice, either Salt Creek (Renowned Surfing Beach) or Strands. Both Beaches are stunningly beautiful for a morning stroll, a relaxing day at the beach, or a romantic sunset toast.

Everything Southern California has to offer is in Dana Point. A small quaint town nestled between Laguna Beach and San Clemente, you can’t go wrong with a range of restaurants, harbor shopping and minimal traffic. Just 12 minutes to Laguna Beach (North) or San Clemente (South) there’s never a lack of beach vibe in this Southern California Coastal town. For a little history, a short 5 minute drive into the quaint village of San Juan Capistrano provides hours of entertainment.

Condo was very clean, walking distance to store and beach walk. Very close to our grandkids. Easy to get to Laguna and San Clemente. We have stayed at Ritz Point and this was top of list.

Enjoyable Stay

The condo was nice, perfect for a couple, with a fully functional kitchen. Cynthia was prompt in her replies to e-mail questions we had during our stay. The Ritz Pointe properties have their own walking path to Monarch Beach and it was the perfect location for us to explore the area. We loved our stay!

Sweet Retreat

As its "Petite Retreat" names implies, this small but delightful condo is a great place to getaway to, for some days of R&R. The gated community provides security and ensures a quiet stay. The walk to Monarch Beach is especially pleasant and a reasonable distance. Cynthia was very prompt in response to questions and our stay was great with no surprises. Would definitely stay again.

Dirty and run down....no good

This could be a great place to stay in a truly lovely part of SoCo, but it needs a full re-do. Everything was sub-par. Dirty rugs, incomplete, clunky and dirty kitchen wear, a laughably bad sofa, bed linens that smelled horrible and a floor I was afraid we’d fall through. Eager to return to Dana / Laguna, just never again here.

The property location was great. Could have been better organized with towels, wash clothes soap for dishwasher and washing machine as well as more than 2 trash bags. Otherwise place was nice

Pleasant value for the rates in a nice location

This is a clean property, modestly furnished and good value for the location. The King size bed in the master bedroom was comfortable plus a hide-a-bed couch in the living room that was your typical hide-a-bed comfort level. The kitchen supplies are not quite chef ready as the listing says but they were definitely sufficient for our quiet family of four. Check in was easy with the instructions provided, and the security guard at the gated entrance was ready for us with a paper we took and then showed each time we entered the property. The security deposit and refund process went smoothly. In the top, third floor in a quiet location, it was a pleasant place to stay.

All the comforts of home

Cynthia's place was fantastic with all the comforts of home. The king size bed was really comfortable. I appreciated all the nice linens, especially the giant bath towels. The washer and dryer came in handy after spending the day deep sea fishing. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to other visits in the future.

Delightful. Convenient location. Very peaceful.

We spent five lovely nights at the "Petite Retreat". The king size bed bed was very comfortable and the condo had everything we needed as far as amenities. The hot tub with gorgeous ocean views was a short walk away and we spent several mornings there sunning and relaxing. The property grounds are beautiful and the community is very private. All in all, we had a great stay and would definitely return.

Great location!

I couldn’t think of a better location for the condo to be in. We walked to the beach almost every day we were there. Everything else was within a reasonable driving distance. The condo itself is nice and in a well kept community. My family and I would stay there again next time!

Great One Bedroom

This unit is on the top floor so very quiet. Everything was clean and in order when we arrived. The owner is easy to work with and our deposit was refunded within a week. I really like this location as it is close to the beach and shopping. The complex is beautiful and secure. It's just a great place to relax and enjoy the area.

Spotless and Relaxing

My husband and I were unsure about staying in a 1 bedroom unit...(close quarters) for a few weeks. However, the cozy “petite retreat” is just that. A quiet unit on the top floor with a nice deck, an umbrella for sunny afternoons addd to the lovely ambiance. The new king size bed, fluffy towels and great bedding made our experience perfect. The unit and how they sell it online is accurate. Most importantly, the accommodations were spotless, well appointed and conveniently located to Laguna Niguel and Dana Pointe. The walk to Monarch beach is amazing and semi busy with other walking enthusiasts, dogs and human alike!!! Cynthia is a great communicator and will go above and beyond to ensure your experience exceeds your expectations.

Petite Retreat

Very comfortable 1 bedroom condo on 3rd floor of a very secure and safe complex. Fully stocked kitchen. Great space for 2 people and central to everything. Clean linens, towels, place. The owner, Ms Carol, responds quickly and took care of all our questions. Mind you, there is no elevator, but makes for a great workout and the views from the porch overlook the other condos but location more than makes up for that. Spend time visiting Dana Point, Laguna, beaches and come home to a comfy, cozy abode. Peace & Thanks, Ms Carol.

kristin s., Troy, NY

Great location. Good for travel or small family.

Property is clean and having beach chairs and an umbrella are a plus. No need for the ac but would suggest a fan as some nights it get stuffy. Owner is easy to get in touch with, prompt and pleasant. Bed is comfy, outside patio is nice for morning coffee. Is in a gated community for a bit of added safety. Only negative is the bathroom location. Being a one bedroom the bathroom is located within the master suite. This can be ackward if traveling with others and a bit disturbing if they get up during the night.
