When I plan a seaside escape, I always think of Laguna Beach hotels—and I think you should too. You’ll find ocean views, cozy luxury, and that unmistakable artistic charm just steps from the sand. After 25 years of travel writing, I can say these stays never disappoint.
Highlights:
- Book an oceanfront room like I do—you’ll thank me when you sip wine at sunset from your private balcony.
- Relax in boutique hotels where I’ve melted into spa treatments—you’ll feel the stress fade fast.
- Stay in art-inspired inns that remind me why I love this town—galleries are often just around the corner for you to explore.
- Enjoy family-friendly resorts I’ve recommended for years—you’ll love how easily you can walk from your room to the beach.
- Find romantic hideaways I’ve escaped to myself—expect ocean breezes, coastal charm, and a peaceful pace you’ll never want to leave.
