Heisler Park, Laguna Beach

The quieter, more peaceful cousin to Main Beach, Heisler Park is known for some of the best views in Orange County, and has walking trails, tidepools, and picnic areas for those looking for something to do besides just standing in awe.

414 Cypress, Laguna Beach

Price: $2,750,000

One block from Heisler Park sits 414 Cypress, that "small cottage near the water" that everyone dreams about. Part of the "tree streets" built in 1924, this Cape Cod-styled beauty has been completely remodeled recently, and has a large yard with plenty of parking, rare for Laguna.

Dana Point Harbor

Currently under a bit of construction (about ⅔ done), the harbor has fun activities from sailing to stand-up paddle boarding to whale/dolphin watching. Watching the sunset while dining or walking along the waterfront here is a must.

24722 Del Prado #303, Dana Point

Price $1,865,000

What a better way to pair a harbor under construction than with a new home being built a short walk away. This two bedroom two bath comes with 2 garage spaces, EV charging, and all the modern touches inside like plank flooring, shaker cabinets, and quartz counters.

If history is your love language, The Mission will speak to you. One of 21 missions statewide, The Mission is celebrating its 250th year in 2026 with an artifact of the month on display in addition to its regular tours and museum. Also, this Valentine's Day, the first 1,000 guests will receive a cupcake to celebrate The Mission's birthday.

7 Tattersall, Laguna Niguel

Price $7,200,000

About 5 minutes away in the exclusive Bear Brand community in Laguna Niguel, 7 Tattersall is a total fixer and one of the largest homes in the city with over 8,000 square feet of interior space. This is a 42,000 square foot lot with ocean views, a tennis court, and a pool that is ready for its next historical update.

For the full Balboa Island experience, take the Balboa Island Ferry to this unique man-made island with plenty of places to dine and shop, or just walk around and take in the small-town vibe

990 Bayside Cove #609, Newport Beach

Price $2,895,000

{"shape": [6336, 9520, 3]}

Just across from Balboa Island, in a waterfront, gated community with direct beach access, 990 Bayside Cove has been tastefully remodeled, including a chef's kitchen with Sub-Zero refrigerator, Wolf range, and quartz countertops.

Disneyland Park, Anaheim

Maybe not the first place that comes to mind as romantic, but the park does host a (now sold out) Sweethearts Nite and of course it is The Happiest Place on Earth.

557 S Summerfield, Orange

10

Summerfield is less than 10 minutes from the park and 5 minutes to Old Towne Orange and is amazingly priced under $1M. Recently painted with remodeled bathrooms, this is the lowest priced single-family detached 3-bedroom in Anaheim or Orange built in the last 40 years.
