Surf & Sand Resort in Laguna Beach offers a beautiful seaside experience with stunning ocean views and easy access to the sand. The hotel features comfortable rooms, many with spectacular ocean views, and luxurious beds and linens that ensure a relaxing stay. Guests often praise the friendly and helpful staff, including the front desk, valet, bellmen, and concierge services, which enhance the overall experience. The on-site dining at Splashes bar provides delicious food with an epic view, making it a popular spot for lunch and romantic dinners. The pool area is relaxing, and the hotel’s location offers convenient walkability to nearby restaurants, shopping, and beach activities like volleyball, tide pools, and walking along the sand. Safety is highly rated, with guests feeling secure and appreciative of the local police presence. However, some reviews mention ongoing construction that causes loud noise from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on weekdays, which can disrupt the peaceful atmosphere and ocean sounds. Despite this, staff was accommodating, offering free parking and resort fees as compensation. Once construction is completed, the hotel is expected to be even more enjoyable. Overall, Surf & Sand Resort is praised for its breathtaking views, excellent service, and prime beachfront location, making it a favorite destination for relaxation and leisure in Laguna Beach.
Cannot say enough about this beautiful location and amenities. Well worth the price ;)

Celebrated our 20 year anniversary and could not have chosen a better place than the Surf & Sand. Without asking, we were accommodated with rose petals, fresh roses, candles, and chocolate covered strawberries, which set the tone for the great service we were given.

Wonderful birthday / Mother's Day weekend with my wife. We needed the staycation.
