Set along Laguna Beach’s southern shoreline, South Laguna Village is known for its secluded coves, rugged bluffs, and laid-back charm. Quiet residential streets step down toward the water, where locals catch sunset at Thousand Steps and stroll cliffside paths above Table Rock. The area attracts full-time residents, second-home buyers, and investors who value beach access, ocean views, and a slower coastal rhythm—without sacrificing proximity to dining, galleries, and everyday conveniences.
Community life centers on the sand and the village: surf checks, morning coffee, and evening walks as the sky turns pink. With nearby parks and trailheads in every direction, South Laguna Village delivers an easy, outdoor-forward lifestyle that feels miles away—yet remains minutes from downtown Laguna and key commuting routes.

South Laguna Village offers an eclectic mix of vintage beach cottages, mid-century homes, lock-and-leave condos/townhomes, and custom coastal-modern builds perched for views. Many residences date from the 1930s–1970s and have been reimagined with open kitchens, folding glass walls, spa baths, and outdoor rooms geared for al-fresco living. Buyer appeal centers on ocean proximity, view corridors, and renowned enclaves such as Three Arch Bay, Montage Beach Villas, South Laguna Bluffs, Laguna Lido and Lagunita
