Casa Loma: Laguna Beach Hotel Rec
The location of this hotel was excellent, I personally prefer being at the beginning of the town vs the south end. It’s closer to Corona Del Mar, Newport and just has easier options to leave the canyon and pop around to some of my fav spots.
Hotel highlights, it underwent a recent renovation and it was clearly done by someone with good taste. The little touches, the drinks in the room, included some of my personal favorites.
The Terrace is beach facing so watching the sunset, glass of wine in hand grazing on a charcuterie board I don’t think could be any better!
The staff were all extremely kind, friendly, down to earth and helpful! Every single person from front desk to maintenance was absolutely salt of the earth people. Which nowadays seems rare, so whoever is in charge of hiring has done an excellent job in choosing hard working, kind people! So job well done!!! Great staff is everything to me, they really do make or a break an experience and they were all wonderful!
The beds were comfy, the room we stayed in was small and cozy, just perfect for our 4 night stay. I also loved how private the pool felt, and the walkways were easy to access to just pop out for a morning walk.
loved how you never felt rushed or harassed, it was a true boutique hotel relaxing, curated experience, will definitely recommend to all my friends and will be back!
P.S. loved their personal music station that played on the radio in the room & through the hotel it was such a relaxing special touch.
