"Great resort - clean, right on the water, great restaurant, pool. But the best is the people. So helpful, so friendly, always addressed me by my name -WOW! So much fun to sit at the bar and watch high tide come in - almost reached the hotel! The kids loved the pool and the activities (s'mores at night were a big hit)"

Everybody talks about stunning views and breathtaking sunsets (all true!) but there is so much more I would like to point out about Surf and Sand. My family and I had such a great time and we could not be more pleased with our experience. It is perfectly situated on the ocean and only a few minutes from the center of town. From the moment we arrived we had a very positive first impression with such helpful and friendly staff at the Front Desk. The view from the room was gorgeous, not mentioning that we slept listening to the sound of the waves. We ordered breakfast in the room and the service was genuine and warm from our server, JD, who engaged in conversation with my children. The cherry on top was my relaxation time at the Aquaterra Spa, one of the best massages I've ever had. Thank you Surf and Sand team for such memorable time!

My husband heard about this place through a friend. He wanted to take me there for our 2nd wedding anniversary. I thought it was over our typical budget so I was hesitant, but I gave the go ahead because I knew my husband really wanted to go. When I called to make the reservation the woman was so nice and helpful. A few days later, we checked in and WERE BLOWN AWAY! This place is expensive but we now know why. The ocean is right below the balcony, every employee is very friendly and hospitable, the food and drinks at all the restaurants are amazing, the room is spacious, comfortable, elegant, and relaxing.... It was such a special and romantic anniversary! The "Night to Remember" package exceeded our expectations by far. Our waiter, Ryan, recommended delicious entrees and wines for dinner at the Splashes Restaurant. All views on entire property are breathtaking. Sharon, who checked us out also was amazing at her job and so warm. I CANNOT WAIT TO COME BACK!! This stay rejuvenated my husband and I, and has on on cloud 9!!! Thank you so much Surf and Sand!!

First off view was OUTSTANDING! My husband and I were very well rested after being spoiled by friendly staff. Highly recommended for any type of stay business or personal but make sure to bring your bathing suite

This hotel is probably my favorite in the US. An amazing place at the beach, great food & drinks and (for the most part) friendly staff. We had a great suite at one of the top floors and a beautiful view of the Sea with amazing sunrises and sunsets every day of our stay. Splashes (the restaurant) offers a vibrant crowd and really great seafood choices (I am sure all the rest of the menu is great, too). I recommend it for couples to both hide away and be in the middle of a great and poche atmosphere. We will definitely come back.

Beautiful up scale full service hotel right on PCH in Laguna Beach. Rooms have amazing views overlooking the ocean. Staff was courteous, friendly and competent. Rooms were spacious with full amenities. Food was second to none. The British gals at concierge were a treat and very informative and helpful. Amazing hotel, amazing amenities and amazing staff. Right on the beach. Hotel heaven.

Could not be closer to the ocean. We came for a night mid week and got upgraded to a penthouse which was amazing. Didn't feel crowded even through they we're hosting a corporate event (or two?). We had lunch at the pool and dinner at the Splashes bar downstairs just feet above the beach. The whole property was clean, friendly, good food, and absolutely beautiful views.

The location of the hotel is amazing, right on the sand! The level of service and cleanliness of the hotel is exceptional too. Someone is constantly cleaning the common areas and all the staff are wearing masks. We enjoyed our stay tremendously and will definitely be back

Although I live 8 minutes away this place has become second home to my family and I. The private beach , the great waiters by the pool and front desks it feels like we are visiting friends. So much so that we keep running into new friends we met last month. Thank you for your excellent serve. See you soon.

So we decided to stay at surf and Sand as a little staycation away from kids. Everything from the valet, check in, room service, and amenities during covid was amazing. I have nothing negative to say about the staff or the services received they did an amazing job.

Fantastic time again at Surf and Sand. Tom and the whole valet crew were always there to meet us with a smile and are so helpful. Great guys! Every time we pull in our mood improves. Great service from Bryce at check in as well as assisting in extending our stay. Cary from the Bell Desk was awesome! Thank you all for another wonderful stay!

Despite living 8 minutes away from here, we love renting a room here. The minute you enter it’s like your meeting old friends. From the bell guy, to the pool service to the restaurant (omg the Brussels sprouts !!!!! ) to the front desk. I love coming here and saying we are back lol home away from home. Btw by first date with my husband of 20 years was here.

This resort by far is the most magical place as you can feel Hawaii and Italy depending on where you stand. What makes this place even more magical are the people that work here. Everyone from check in to the pool and by the ocean service are happy to be there. Everyone makes you feel at home by the way they greet you from the moment you enter. The property and room itself is also so beautiful with perfect lighting, perfect sheets and everything luxury.

My experience: When I arrived staff was very polite. Everything is organized and in order. Plenty of help. Clean and well kept. This place is great. The view is outstanding. I forgot I was in California. Beautiful view. I will return several times!

This hotel had it all. If you are looking for a nice quiet stay on a private beach front resort this it. Request ocean front view. You will hear the waves hit the hotel. You will feel like you are sleeping directly on the beach. The staff was extremely professional and nice.

What a beautiful place. My children and I needed a mini vacation. I never wanted to leave. From the moment we arrived we were treated not just as a guest but as family members. Dinner was amazing. Arriving to the most beautiful room with champagne on ice and a personal invite from the surf and sand famous chef to attend dinner was by far one of the best parts of the stay. My children and I were spoiled and after all we have been through it was a breathe of fresh air we needed. BIG THANKS TO SURF AND SAND and to a Kimberly a server in the restaurant.. You are amazing always going above and beyond with care and it shows if there were only more people in this world with that positive light things wouldn't be so dark!

I had a great visit at Surf and Sand! Stephanie was really nice at the front desk. She helped us find our way over to Splashes bar. The bar is gorgeous! It had a great view of the beach and the food was amazing. Kimmy was our server she was so sweet and recommended some great drinks and appetizers! She truly made our experience worth while!!

Heaven on earth. We visited the Surf and Sand for a family celebration. The entire staff from the concierge to room service to bell hops and valet were extremely helpful, friendly and cheerful. Our rooms were beautiful and the ocean setting could not have been more spectacular. We enjoyed drinks around the pool and time in the jacuzzi. With a one stay, we didn't have time to use the other amenities. Can't wait for our next visit.

My husband and I visited Laguna Beach for the first time. The Surf and Sand was wonderful! We stayed oceanfront and literally you are right on the ocean! Beautiful. The surf sounds are quite loud but we enjoyed it. The room was very clean and nice. Bed very comfortable. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Splashes was a great restaurant too. We sat outside on the patio area with the fire pits one evening too. It was overall a great experience and we can’t wait to go back!

"Our stay at the Surf and Sand was such a great experience from the moment we walked in. We got greeted by the friendly and sweet, Trish. I told them that it was my birthday and they made my stay extra special, by bringing chocolate covered strawberries and wine to the room as surprised gift. We at Splashes restaurant and the atmosphere was to die for; very intimate with a insane view. Looking forward to our next stay!"

"This hotel is a gem! Staff is amazing. Room was beautiful. View was incredible. Location is perfect. This is the perfect place for a family beach vacation. We spent four days at Disneyland prior to arriving and my 7 and 9 year old daughters seemed to like this better. The kids had little tents and sleeping bags during the stay. There was a large selection of kids movies for night. We all loved the pool and beach. We only left the hotel once during our stay to go on a dolphin safari. Otherwise, the kids wanted to be in the pool or on the beach. Can’t say enough good things about this resort!"

"World class location. Easy check-in. Pleasant staff. Cool bar and restaurant on first floor...try the chicken nachos. Easy beach access. Spacious clean rooms that are well-appointed with free WiFi. Mini bar and large TV. Toilet shower area on the small side. Interesting for a hotel that prides itself on being green we had to run both sinks about 5 minutes to get hot water..."

"Staying here was one of the most serene, peaceful and relaxing weekends I have had in a very very long time. It is rare where you visit a place and you feel like you get what you pay for but Surf & Sand will not disappoint! Extremely attentive staff, cleaners in room 2 times a day (left chocolates on bed - robe out - tranquil music playing from tv), wonderful food and a view that makes it even harder to say goodbye to. I stayed in a ocean front room and it was well worth it. Thank you S&S for this experience...I will be back!"

"My company uses this resort for our annual sales conference and the staff is marvelous. We get great food, excellent beverages, amazing service and it seems as if they were always ready for any need that may have risen. We had a party after the conference and the appetizers were fantastic. But also the view and location is second to none."

We stayed so long, we moved tables twice, but the servers made us feel very welcome with no complaints. We were right on the water with a beautiful view. All in all, a fantastic way to spend a Sunday."

"My first time at Surf and Sand was for a sleepover birthday party in high school. It was over ten years ago and I still remember being amazed by the oceanfront front suite and having a great time with my friends with the sound of waves keeping us happy. Now as an adult, this is one of my favorite local resorts for a staycation. I'm really picky about hotels, but I've never ever had an issue here. Always get an oceanfront room, and ask for a corner suite! I don't swim so I don't go into the pool or the ocean, but even then I still have a lovely time watching the sunset from the pool and exploring the area. I love the masseuses at their spa. They're great at working with you to help you relax. As for food, there are so many restaurants close by, but the Splashes at the hotel serves great food! Five stars for overall greatness!"

"Fantastic location and 5 star service. They over heard us at the front desk that we had a birthday. 10 minutes after getting into our room they brought us wine and chocolates. Everyone was very nice and views out to the ocean from the ocean front rooms is amazing. Sunsets right out your window over the ocean and Catalina island. We will be back."

"Spent a week here back in January and I must say that this place is paradise! I really really enjoyed my stay here. I felt welcomed and my needs were all met! All I had to do was say the word and it was done - my kinda life!!! My suite overlooked the ocean and I left my windows opened at all times to throughly enjoy the magnificent view. Going to sleep every night to sounds of the mighty Pacific Ocean is everything - I kid you not! The restaurant and bar are superb and the staff even better! I definitely endorse staying here, even if it's just for a night or two. It is also well worth noting that this is an expensive undertaking not to be entered into lightly. In other words - bring your BIG wallet ppl!!! Come through and enjoy the good for yourself! And I'm out...‍‍"

"We're locals based in LA and we know Laguna Beach really well. Staying overnight can be tricky because the properties are generally older and the views and landscaping are so lovely there's not a lot of incentive to make the accommodations first-rate. We've stayed at Montage and Ritz-C but didn't feel like taking out a mortgage to pay for our 4 night vacation. Surf & Sand is beachfront, has a really good restaurant, and was high end enough to meet our needs. Our balcony was amazing, and the furniture cushions, thick and comfy. They also treated us like gold, including a lovely acknowledgment for our anniversary. Everyone's smile was genuine. A definite thumbs up!"

"This place is awesome. Right on the beach. Rooms are clean and comfy. Our room only had a heater, but I guess you don't need AC since the ocean breeze cools down the room. Restaurant and bar are a bit pricey. Walking distance to other bars and restaurants. Since you can't smoke cigars on their property you have to go across the street to the cigar lounge."

"We visited Laguna Beach for the first time for our Xmas holiday. We stayed at Surf And Sand resort and were simply impressed with everything from the facility to the excellent service. From check in, to the bell boys, valet, to the housekeeping staff, everyone was 10/10, very very friendly and eager to help. We had a room on the top floor and it was simply breathtaking. We could not imagine that our hotel was literally ON THE BEACH. Waking up and walking to our balcony, opening the door, it felt as if we are actually on a cruise ship, in the water. We miss going to sleep with the sound of crashing waves. On our final day as we were about to check out and walked to the balcony, we spotted a group of dolphins playing around. We will definitely be back and I have already recommended this hotel to my friends and colleagues."

We had an ocean view room and it was very peaceful to go sleep and wake up to the ocean. They do provide ear plugs in the room if you are sensitive to noise, the room had blackout curtains, and the property has access to the beach."

"Had our wedding at this resort and had a wonderful time. The service is great and they even comped us an additional night. Personally, I love the fact that you can hear the ocean - but I understand that for some this might be a distraction for sleeping. I would close the door and it should be quiet enough to sleep. Everyone is most friendly from the valets, to the waiters at Splashes (the onsite cafe). We will definitely return one day to celebrate our anniversary."

I went with my now fiance and we had our best vacation ever!!! Everyone was extremely nice and went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of. The view from our room was amazing and the sound of the waves put us to sleep every night. My now fiance purposed to me on our balcony while the sun was setting and I couldn't have asked for a more perfect romantic setting. Thank you all staff from Surf and Sand for making this my most memorable vacation."

"This is a solid 5 star. Rooms are beautiful and very comfortable. Overlooking a beautiful beach and ocean. Service was excellent on all levels. Check in and out was easy and quick, the restaurant and bar servers were great (a little slow, but hey, there's a beautiful beach right there). It's near a lot of cool places to walk. If you are disturbed by the noise of the waves right below your balcony, and unobstructed views as far as you can see, you should not stay here. But if the sounds of the ocean, and the breeze that comes with it, is what you're looking for, this is your spot."

"Amazing place to stay. We didn’t want to leave. If I hadn’t paid for another place our last night in So. Ca, I would have absolutely extended my stay here. We loved our room; second floor of the tower, ocean front. We saw dolphins, sunsets, surf and sunshine. The pool was sublime and the weather was warm enough that we could still enjoy what this Resort has to offer. We just loved Splashes bar (I mean the restaurant is awesome too) but the ambience of the bar is so fun sitting over the water. Great coffee shop with grab and go items gave us another eating option. We never had to leave the property and spent our last afternoon in the sun and just staring at the view from our balcony. There are many places in the area to stay but we really felt this ticked all the boxes for us. We will go back."

Our favorite staycation in SoCal I have been meaning to write this review for a while now. Hands down our favorite Oceanside hotel. Me and my husband have visited a few times now and it is always a wonderful experience. Such a treat everytime. We have the pleasure of working with Pamela on our bookings and she always does an amazing job organizing our stay. The rooms are perfection. Directly overlooking the ocean, you can't hear or see any neighbors. Just you and the ocean. It is the only place I stay where I don't want to leave the room. The pool and restaurant are also really nice. We frequently go to the pool for some drinks and lunch. Service is great and attentive, food is good too w nice portions. Once we check in, we never leave the hotel grounds during our stay it is so amazing. If you love to listen to the waves, the ocean and just relax from city life, this is the place. You will not be disappointed.

The room was just above the beach and surf. I can't imagine a better location in Laguna. We also shopped in the gift shop which was cute, got goodies in the attached coffee shop; loved the chocolate covered strawberries and zuchinni bread. We ordered room service breakfast one morning and it came quickly and was delicious. All the staff was very attentive; from being greeted and helped by the valet staff who were cordial and quick..."

This Resort has no bad views, honestly. Every balcony has comfortable chairs to sit and enjoy the ocean, it is so relaxing and peaceful! All the staff are so attentive and friendly and eager to help you with anything you need! I truly felt special here!"

"Located in Laguna Beach, simply gorgeous and intimate resort, what a gem!!! It looks like we were 15 feet above the water. The soothing sound of the waves lulled us to sleep... Surf & Sand Resort has sweeping coastal views with breathtaking sunsets! The restaurant is also literally above the sand. The food is amazing, fine cuisine. The service throughout the resort is impeccable. Such a fabulous resort for a romantic and relaxing getaway weekend."

"I spent five days at this property for a corporate event and everything was perfect. We wanted a venue that allowed us to "take care of business" but still offered an element of luxury and remind our out of town guests that they were at a beach resort in Southern CA. Each staff member at the Surf & Sand was kind, attentive, and prompt. Every need was met, and every expectation exceeded. Brad, Jennifer, Oscar, Vince, and the women at the concierge were awesome. From assisting us with group activities, accommodating our large party for dinner, handling our technical issues quickly, or finding balloons for an impromptu birthday celebration, they were on it- zero complaints! Our group will definitely be returning."

"Oh my... the sound of the waves is amazing! I visited Surf & Sand for a business event that lasted several days. The facility is top notch, the rooms are clean and spacious, and the beds were super comfy. The cleaning staff was excellent and the sound of the waves was the most magical part of the entire stay at the hotel. Whatever you do, get an ocean side room. If you can't book one, find another date to visit when you can. The sunsets and sunrises are a special experience, and the water is a clear deep aqua. I am certainly bringing my husband back to this venue for a special occasion. For a business meeting, it was top notch and the food service was excellent. Special shout out to Sam who served us expertly. If you go in Jan you might get to see a whale migrating like we did! I was told there was a pod of dolphins, but I missed seeing them. All in all a pretty spectacular place to stay."

"It really doesn't get better than this. Whether you're looking for a hip beach hotel experience or a romantic lunch or dinner on the water, this hotel has it all. The hotel feels very high-end with a casual beach twist. Great for families or adults looking for a great view and dining experience."

"One of our favorite little getaways We absolutely love this hotel. Even though we live at the beach in Orange County, we will sneak away for a night or two alone at Surf & Sand. There is nothing like the sound of the waves on the beach as you sleep or grab a cocktail down at Splashes. The first time we stayed, I thought that the earplugs they leave by the side of your bed were a joke. But they are not! The waves can be so loud as you sleep that they can literally wake you up. It is amazing! Love love love"

"The “team” at the Surf and Sand go out of their way to make every moment here special. I say “team” because they are a well-oiled machine! The accommodations are well-maintained and contain all the amenities one could hope for. The food is exceptional, only exceeded by the very warm wait staff. The Beach attendants are very attentive and the location could not be better. Great walking!"

"My company had it's 3-day offsite at the Surf & Sand Hotel. This was my first stay here. I was absolutely satisfied with every aspect of my stay here. The room was spacious and clean. I liked that earplugs were provided because I was right on the water's edge. I didn't need them because I enjoyed the sound of the waves throughout the night. Everyone on staff, the bellmen, the valet, the front desk staff, and those who maintained the rooms, they were all friendly, responsive and went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed. I would definitely recommend this hotel."
