Where do I start. Firstly I cannot write this review without giving a huge shout out to Sandra who is one of the lovely staff at Surf and Sand Resort - she made our trip extra special and sent some wine and cheese up to our room and also booked Nobu for us which was incredible as it was impossible to get a booking otherwise. As soon as we walked in I felt like a celebrity. We were greeted with amazing staff on the front desk, they upgraded our room with a small fee which was so worth it. Without even going into the Hotel itself the staff make it the most amazing experience. This Hotel is the only one on Laguna beach which is on the sea front, you can hear the waves crashing - our room was right on the water. The food in the Hotel was impeccable, you seriously need to try the breakfast burrito & French toast - OMG! On our first night we went for dinner and the food and cocktails were insane! I would seriously go back every year to this Hotel if I could. Excited to visit again! It is always fully booked so we were so lucky to have got a room! The best Hotel I have visited for sure! also the pool was incredible !

Great buffet breakfast, just disappointed it was only available at the weekend. Great location very close to the Gondola. Great to have self laundry facilities on each floor of hotel. Loved the large bedrwith separate lounge area, perfect for families.

Checking in was a bit of a problem, had to wait a bit after check in time to get our room. Other than that, it was great. Beautiful views of the mountain. Nice big deck. Great place. We loved it.

The history and the love to detail makes it a most wonderful stay. Also a great way for young families to introduce kids to staying on a ship.
