Vacation Concierge Proudly Represents… CAPTAIN’S COTTAGE!
(City of Dana Point - STR23-0076)
Vacation Concierge proudly presents CAPTAIN’S COTTAGE — a charming, sun kissed retreat tucked into the heart of Dana Point’s beloved Lantern Village. This delightful two bedroom, two bath coastal cottage invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and savor the relaxed elegance of Southern California’s seaside lifestyle. From the moment you arrive at its quiet cul de sac location on Crystal Lantern, you’ll feel the peaceful shift that only a true beach getaway can bring. Ocean breezes drift through the neighborhood, the scent of salt air mingles with blooming coastal flowers, and the warm, welcoming ambiance of this cottage makes it easy to imagine mornings spent strolling to the harbor and evenings unwinding beneath pastel sunsets.
Perfectly positioned within walking distance of Dana Point Harbor, Doheny State Beach, and the vibrant shops and dining along historic Pacific Coast Highway, CAPTAIN’S COTTAGE places the very best of coastal living right at your fingertips. Whether you’re craving a leisurely day of boutique browsing, a bike ride along the shoreline, a morning surf session, or a sunset boat cruise, everything you desire is just moments away. With the newly revitalized Town Center nearby, you’ll discover endless opportunities for entertainment, community events, and the warm, friendly atmosphere that makes Dana Point one of Southern California’s most treasured coastal towns. This is the kind of place where memories are made effortlessly — and where guests return year after year.
Inside, the cottage welcomes you with a bright, airy interior filled with natural light and coastal charm. The fully outfitted kitchen features crisp white cabinetry, gleaming granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, creating a beautiful and functional space for preparing meals or enjoying a quiet morning coffee. The open layout flows seamlessly into the spacious family room, where a cozy fireplace, comfortable sofa, and large flat screen TV invite you to relax after a day of adventure. A separate dining room with seating for six sets the stage for long, lingering meals filled with conversation, laughter, and the simple joy of being together.
The sleeping accommodations are designed with comfort and tranquility in mind. The primary suite offers a luxurious king bed and private bathroom with a single vanity shower, creating a peaceful retreat for rest and rejuvenation. The second bedroom features a welcoming queen bed, and the additional bathroom — also with a single vanity and shower — ensures convenience and privacy for all guests. With room to sleep four comfortably, CAPTAIN’S COTTAGE is ideal for two couples seeking a relaxing getaway or a small family looking to enjoy the beauty of the coast.
Thoughtful amenities elevate your stay even further. A private full size washer and dryer make longer visits effortless, while beach chairs and umbrellas are provided so you can head straight to the sand without a second thought. Parking is simple and stress free with a dedicated driveway space and additional on street parking that requires no permit. Every detail has been carefully curated to ensure your stay is as comfortable, convenient, and enjoyable as possible.
Professionally managed, impeccably maintained, and supported by Vacation Concierge’s 24/7 availability, CAPTAIN’S COTTAGE offers peace of mind along with its undeniable charm. This is a non smoking home, and at least one adult aged 25 or older must be present during the stay — ensuring a serene, respectful environment for all guests.
With its unbeatable location, inviting atmosphere, and the irresistible pull of Dana Point’s coastal magic, CAPTAIN’S COTTAGE is a highly sought after retreat that books quickly. If you’re dreaming of a relaxing escape filled with ocean breezes, charming village strolls, and the warmth of a true home away from home, now is the perfect time to secure your stay.
