The neighborhood benefits from the iconic Victoria Beach identity and the prestige associated with this section of the Laguna coast.
Upper Victoria Beach Living: What to Expect

The hillside position above the beach also provides a degree of separation from the summer beach crowds.
The neighborhood has a mix of owner-occupied primary residences and seasonal homes. Privacy is enhanced by the hillside topography and the winding access roads.
