Beautiful room. Although the sea view from the room itself was quite restricted, outside the room was a large sitting area overlooking the sea with really comfortable cushioned seating, shade, candles, incense sticks, and just sitting quietly here listening to the waves was amazing and really recharging. Room was lovely with lots of little touches - shells, ceramics, decor. Shower great. Overall this was a great experience and wish I could have stayed longer. Oh, and they have free availability of chairs, parasols and towels for the beach. Would def stay here again.

Where do I start. Firstly I cannot write this review without giving a huge shout out to Sandra who is one of the lovely staff at Surf and Sand Resort - she made our trip extra special and sent some wine and cheese up to our room and also booked Nobu for us which was incredible as it was impossible to get a booking otherwise. As soon as we walked in I felt like a celebrity. We were greeted with amazing staff on the front desk, they upgraded our room with a small fee which was so worth it. Without even going into the Hotel itself the staff make it the most amazing experience. This Hotel is the only one on Laguna beach which is on the sea front, you can hear the waves crashing - our room was right on the water. The food in the Hotel was impeccable, you seriously need to try the breakfast burrito & French toast - OMG! On our first night we went for dinner and the food and cocktails were insane! I would seriously go back every year to this Hotel if I could. Excited to visit again! It is always fully booked so we were so lucky to have got a room! The best Hotel I have visited for sure! also the pool was incredible !

    The front desk lady was so positive, friendly and helpful. The chairs and umbrella were needed and helpful. Restaurants were right there. The view from the balcony was tremendous. The smell of the ocean was so wonderful. Downtown is a leisurely walk. Lots of open beach.
