A little Oasis
This furnished-with-love penthouse has access to a wonderful hidden terrace, giving you the feeling of having arrived in an oasis! The host is wonderful- very helpful and welcoming. Walking distance from the beach and even downtown Laguna!

We were traveling for a wedding at the Montague. This is an excellent alternative to a hotel stay. Very close to this resort. Would stay here again. Would not consider otherwise.

Perfect location
Exactly what was needed for family of 5 on a 4 day getaway. Great location(10 min walk to one of the most beautiful beaches, treasure island and 5 min walk to the beach across the street). Able to wake up every morning and enjoy coffee and the ocean. Stocked with more then enough linen and toiletries. Prompt and attentive hosts. Never had a problem. Parking spot is tight(good for sedan) and steep flight of stairs up to the penthouse (not a big issue). Everything was great.

Wonderful!!
We loved staying here. The apartment is beautiful and interesting, AND immaculate. The patio is so lovely and the rooftop terrace is a special treat. The space accommodated our family —four adults and a 19 month old—quite well. The host was so personable and helpful, both before our travels and while we were there! An absolutely delightful stay!

Great location and lively property. The bedding was amazing. I live in the back country where there is no traffic, therefore extremely quiet. This location was close in proximity to so much but unfortunately the bedrooms are located on the street side so if your not used to quiet (like my brother) but you may want earplugs if your anything like me…again the bedding was worth it! Great place, would highly recommend.

of the year. We are having all the windows and doors replaced again in September, with the newest technology for noise reduction. Fortunately, It has not been an issue with most of our guest. We look forward to your staying with us again, hopefully the hustle bustle of the village won’t be an issue. Thank you so much again for your stay at Laguna’s Hidden Gem.

Great Stay But Not A True 3rd Bedroom
This is a great property -- excellent location, beautiful patio area, well stocked kitchen, parking, communicative hosts. The only disappointment was the pullout couch in the den space, which the listing states as "new, high quality." This bed was so uncomfortable to each of the teen boys I was traveling with (one 5'0", 100 lbs; the other 5'5", 130) that they opted to share the king size bed instead of each having his own bedroom. The den space is also right off the kitchen with a curtain divider, not a door. For our little group of 3, this didn't matter at all; we still had a great stay and would return. But a group of six adults might feel differently. I suggest the owners invest in a newer, more comfortable pullout or adjust the listing so this is more clear this space is suitable to smaller kids but not adults.

Thank you Julie for reviewing our property. We were happy that you enjoyed Laguna Beach and our penthouse . We appreciate all the positive feedback and praise that you gave Laguna’s Hidden Gem. We felt that you and your family was respectful and lovely. We were disappointed that your extra son didn’t feel like our sofa bed was to their comfort level. The mohair new sofa bed in the “den” is of a very high quality, as is the mattress as well. We have always maintained and aimed for a 5 star standing, and we’re saddened that you felt a 4 star was warranted over a child’s opinion. You are always welcomed to stay at our property.

This apartment worked perfectly for our trip to Laguna! It’s a perfect size for two couples and we easily fit a pack and play for our son in our room. The kitchen is a great size and it has a gorgeous back patio and roof deck that has views of the ocean! It’s a quick drive to the main downtown of Laguna!

Wonderful Stay in Laguna Beach
First, communication with Bill was excellent. We are told to check in at the Black Iris below the apartment and that was perfect. The apartment was spacious and beautifully decorated. It had two large master bedrooms and two full bathrooms. There was a full size living room and dining area. Also, a full size kitchen. We went our for dinner each night of our stay but for those who want to make dinner at there apartment there is everything you need. All appliances and a large refrigerator. There is a counter you can sit at. There is also a sitting room that is very comfortable. There are multiple televisions throughout and even one set up while you're in the kitchen. There is very comfortable furniture and the beds are great. I slept so well. In addition, there is a large out side patio with a beautiful garden and a stairway leading to a rooftop sitting area with a table and chairs and a wonderful view of the ocean. The location is outstanding. There is a parking spot within a very short distance to the apartment. I would definitely stay at this apartment on future trips to this area. Everything went smoothly and we definitely enjoyed our time in Laguna Beach thanks in large part to this apartment. Thanks again to Bill and Paul.

We truly enjoyed our stay from the moment we arrived to the moment we didn’t want to leave. It’s a beautiful and very private place to stay and so close to one very phenomenal restaurant. The Drake. Wow and yum! Bill was an absolute pleasure to work with and being greeted by Allie was wonderful as well. Everyone in the Black Iris was soooooo very kind. I would recommend this beautiful rental to anyone who’s considering it. I have a few highlights while on our 3 night getaway, however, the best one was getting engaged. 💍♥️🥂 We will return again……and again.

Ideal rental for a romantic getaway. The location, the views, the outdoor spaces, the beautiful interior finishes and art, the availability of towels and beach stuff, the extra pillows...the list goes on. We were so comfortable in this long weekend rental. The beds and bedding are comfortable. I can't think of anything to improve. This is the perfect place to stay in Laguna. The owner was very kind and helpful to us. Above and beyond with the accommodations extended to us.

Given the pricing, this property is a great value for this location. Since the property is directly on South Coast Hwy, there can be traffic noise. The rooftop deck & sitting area is awesome and could be even better if the wifi worked up there!

Thank you for your 5 star review. We appreciate all your comments. Yes, we’re in the city, so traffic at certain times of the year can be more of a hustle bustle. There are new city restrictions on vehicle and cycle noise that are strictly being enforced. The Montage resort is across the street from Laguna’s Hidden Gem, that is also on Coast Hwy, the price runs $1000-2,500. per night for single rooms. We also share the same beaches.

Another Fabulous Stay at Laguna's Hidden Gem
This was our second time staying at this lovely penthouse. The home is wonderfully located close to everything we needed. Came for the Pageant of the Masters, a quick rideshare trip away. The views of the sunset from the upper deck are breathtaking. We thoroughly enjoyed the fabulously oversized outdoor space, complete with grill, seating, and umbrellas in a lush tropical garden. The well-appointed kitchen was perfect for two couples to create great meals enjoyed outside. The flower and gift shop on the first floor is filled with gifts and fresh flowers - which are also in the apartment upon arrival. I'm sure we will stay here again, it's the perfect spot to enjoy all Laguna has to offer.

The Hidden Gem Is Full of Wonderful Surprises
When we were escorted to the "Gem" we saw the beautifully designed living room. A fresh bouquet of roses were a surprise in the living room, along with roses in both bathrooms. The outdoor lanai was beautiful, serene, spacious - especially on the 2nd floor! A surprise was the rooftop deck that looks out on the ocean! The bedrooms were beautiful and comfortable. The kitchen matched the beautify of the design. A really beautiful place to stay in Laguna, especially if you want to be close to all of the downtown action.

Laguna’s Hidden Gem is in a historical single family building, that has recently been totally remodeled. In our description of the penthouse, we always advise our guest to read our reviews. We’re in a very desirable location of Laguna Beach, in the city across from one of the most beautiful beaches in Southern California. Most all of our visitors do not have a problem with some traffic noice, as we have double paned windows, and just have installed blackout drapes in the two front rooms. All the rooms, with the exception of the two front rooms of the penthouse and garden are very quiet. If you’re highly sensitive to any kind of noise, you should consider somewhere outside of the city.

Abbas and his family were great guests. Our property has double paned windows and at times it can be a bit noisy in the front two rooms depending on what’s going on in our popular resort village. This is all stated in our description of “The Hidden Gem”. If you read the majority of the reviews, noise has rarely been an issue. I always tell our guest if you’re very sensitive to sounds (noise) this property might not be your first choice. Our garden and most living spaces our very tranquil. We pride ourselves in our five star property. We work hard to make every quest feel special and accommodated.

Lovely property. We shared with two couples, we had plenty of space, except the bathroom was very small. We loved the outside courtyard in the home, which is where we spent most of our time. The location is near restaurants and beach - the trolley is a great way to get around. Street noise is obnoxious, but the outside property makes you forget about it. Manager was very friendly.

Shelly and five other women who stayed at the Gem were delightful and were respectful to the property. The two bathrooms and entire property are completely remodeled and the two bathrooms are considered European standard sizes. Laguna’s Hidden Gem is a historic building. The noise from the street can be louder at times, especially if the double paned windows are left open. The multiple new and efficient air conditioning units make opening the front windows unnecessary.

Brenda and her family were delightful! We would welcome them back anytime. We have universal WiFi that is the best in the industry. We have never had a complaint. The road noise in the front of the penthouse can be more noticeable at times if the double paned windows are not closed. The top of the line air-conditioning makes it unnecessary to leave them open. If you are looking for a completely silent zen sanctuary, it is difficult to find in Laguna, when you are close to world class beaches and resorts.

I rarely leave reviews but I just had to for this incredible experience. Everything from the beauty of the property, the cleanliness, the welcoming feeling & trust from Bill, Paul (plus the Black Iris folks Deb and Chantall) was deeply appreciated. The beds & bedding especially were top-notch and we needed the rest & relaxation after a tough month of dealing with family health issues. Can't beat the sunsets from the rooftop. And the supplied parking was a dream especially when it's a holiday weekend in Laguna! We will definitely be back. Thank you!

Great location, great property, great managers
The entire experience from start to finish is great. The owners own the shop below and they met us at the property to show us around quickly. Very nice and helpful! The property itself is great. It's located a bit south in Laguna Beach so it's out of the madness (but you can access the madness when you want) and we love this part of town. Inside is well appointed with a nice kitchen, comfortable shared space, and roomy bedrooms. Tons of great artwork (from the owners gallery I think?) that really gave the place a nice feeling. There is also dedicated parking which, if you know Laguna Beach, is a huge deal. While the roof deck is fantastic, and we had a few sundowners there, watching the sun fall behind Catalina, we really enjoyed the patio garden. Quiet, private, and perfect for a long breakfast spent reading a book or the news. This location is now our go-to spot for our visits back to Laguna Beach and we are looking forward to our next stay!

Relaxing trip to Laguna
My husband and our two daughters ages 8 and 13 enjoyed this property very much! Plenty of space for our family of 4, plenty of towels, beach items, utensils and cookware. We loved the artwork throughout the place and every room was comfy and cozy. Some other travelers have mentioned noise off of the PCH - it wasn't bad for us at all. We all slept very well, the beds and linens are quite comfortable. The lanai and upstairs patio off the kitchen are def worth the price of admission to this property. Instead of searching for a roof top restaurant to enjoy the sunset we made our own meals and took them upstairs! Breathtaking views of the ocean and the breeze is from heaven. The lanai is a wonderful place to unwind after a day at the beach. The plants are meticulously maintained and transport you to a tropical paradise! We loved the fresh flowers, the (good!) bottle of welcome wine and chocolates and the graciousness of our hosts. Hope to see you next year, Hidden Gem!
