Laguna Beach House 

Coastal cool and surf shack inspiration

Laguna Beach House is all light filled rooms, saltwater swells, vintage surfboards and a bohemian crowd.

Laguna Beach House strikes the right balance when it comes to simple retreat style living, poolside hangouts and palm-fringed scenery. Salty hair, bodysurfing and ‘eat, beach, repeat’ set the scene. A boutique hotel with a muted colour palette and hardwood floors, it’s perfectly placed for a dip into the local side of SoCal life – light bite lunches, first-time surf lessons, an artsy heritage and a scalloped coastline that’s equal parts sleepy and lively.

Why we love Laguna Beach House

  • On one of California’s best beaches, you’re a wink away from the Pacific shoreline, paddleboarding and oceanfront dining

  • Built in the 1920s into the sandstone cliffs, at low tide you can visit the Pirates Tower at Victoria Beach

  • You are within walking distance of Main Beach where you can see what's lurking in the tidal pools

  • We love the extra touches the hotel does for guests, including complimentary wine hour

You are within walking distance of Laguna so there are plenty of dining options nearby, however the hotel's Nosh offers morning coffee, wine hour at the fire pit and even cookies and milk before bedtime.

Nosh
Whilst there isn't a restaurant here, Nosh provides treats throughout the day from morning coffee to bedtime cookies.

You are within walking distance of Main Beach and downtown where there are plenty of restaurants, cafés and the all-important ice cream shops.

See the sculptures in Heisler Park, hike the coastal trails at Crystal Cove or perfect your balance with a paddleboard yoga session.

The hotel has a swimming pool although Laguna's 30 beaches are the main attraction. Famed for their waves, the beaches here attract surfers from all over. Experienced surfers should head to Rockpile or Aliso beaches whilst non-surfers can explore the many tidal pools at Main Beach.
