Cozy Corona del Mar hideaway

Very well furnished efficiency apartment, pretty decor, coffee and snacks graciously provided. Easy walk to restaurants and the beach, owner available if questions arise. Perfect for one, a bit tight bit doable for two.

Great location, spotlessly clean, very comfortable, and super easy check-in and check-out. Everything was just as advertised and you couldn’t want for more for a short trip to Newport Beach.

Long distance partner reunion

Queer platonic partner flew and we had a spectacular stay. Easy parking, lots to do in walking distance. Good quiet neighborhood. Safe space for lgbtq partners to spend a weekend.

Everything about this little studio is perfect. There are so many little shops on Coast Highway and it’s so close to a few local beaches. I drove to the beach every morning. I can’t wait to stay again!

Clean studio, good location

The property was as described in the listing. Property manager was very helpful. She notified us that the unit was available for early check-in and she reached out twice during our stay to ask if we needed anything. I would definitely considering staying here again. Great location—short walk to the beach and several stores and restaurants.

Perfect location, walking distance to everything

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Colleen’s CDM studio. Location is perfect. All pictures are spot on and the studio is set up for maximum convenience. The Keurig coffeemaker and mini fridge were really nice to have. We are familiar with the area but for those who aren’t, Colleen has a basket with the best of CDM. Parking was not a problem. Great stay. I highly recommend for a couple.

Clean, cozy, thoughtful provisions, beautiful walks to ocean. Would stay again, but needs better airflow- like a fan or exhaust, since no a/c. Bathroom activities effect the air quality in main living area. Bed was very comfy but couldn't sleep in past sunrise when the home began heating up. Definitely stuffy in there, but opening windows & doors eliminates any privacy & security; nice safe neighborhood though. Hard for romance if you're shy.
