There is a first-class, very spacious, penthouse owner's unit with gourmet kitchen, granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, new carpet and central air conditioning. The owner's unit also has a totally separate guest suite with its own entrance. Lots of opportunity with this extra space.

The owner's penthouse has two large private balconies...the front balcony facing the village, Main Beach and the colorful hills of Laguna; the rear balcony easily handles outdoor dining and entertaining...a perfect extension of the large family room with its high vaulted ceilings and handsome fireplace.
