It’s a nice place and it doesn’t feel like the heart of Orange County. Facilities like the pool and gym are a little bland and could be a little more like a resort and less like a motel but still cool.

We stayed at The Ranch for our son’s wedding weekend. We had our adult daughter stay with us, so the suite was a perfect option. The suite was very spacious so we were able to invite the bride’s family to hang out for a bit in our room. The walk-in closet kept out clothes and luggage out of site while we entertained, and the double vanity was great for make-up and hair prep before the wedding. The bonus was the quick transportation in the golf cart to get to the on-site restaurant. It’s a beautiful setting, nestled in the hills away from hustle and bustle of town.

The area that the hotel is nestled within it’s extremely nice, the main building adds a nice ambience. However, the hotel rooms while updated, still provide the appearance of an older establishment. The pool is quite small and can fill up very quickly. Additionally, the images of the beach utilized to promote this hotel are of a near by public beach, and while it works, it is somewhat misleading for those looking for more exclusive getaway.

The only choice in Laguna

The Ranch at Laguna Beach is one of my favorite properties in the world. The serene setting in the canyon is unbelievable. Add that to the farm-to-table restaurant, amazing golf course, and incredibly friendly, attentive staff and this resort deserves to be rated one of the top in the world. It feels like a luxury getaway and home all at the same time. Cannot speak highly enough about our experience here, and will be returning soon.
