“Perfect location”

Reviewed 23 May 2013 NEW

This was the perfect location for a weekend on the beach. We happened to luck out and stay in one of the renovated beachfront rooms. Others in our party were less fortunate. The hotel staff were exceptional and went out of their way to be helpful. Our room was clean and very comfortable. If you are going to stay, you... More

“Great spot to unwind”

Reviewed 15 May 2013

We (me, hubby, 4 yr old child) took a 3 day breather from the daily grind down to Laguna Beach and this was the perfect place to be. Ocean front, walking distance to everything, enough amenities to make stay great. It's NOT a luxury hotel, but they don't charge luxury hotel prices anyway, so it's OK. We were pleasantly surprised... More

Glad we could help you unwind! It sounds like you and your family had a fabulous time here in Laguna Beach, but we're sorry that your little one was feeling a bit under the weather. We'd also like to apologize for the state of our restroom, and we will make sure to remind our team to be more vigilant. Thank... More

“Great location- right on the beach”

Reviewed 13 May 2013

This hotel is located within walking distance of downtown Laguna, and right on the beach. The pool & jacuzzi area is nice to have as well. The hotel was updated a couple years ago, so it's in nice condition. The rooms are basic, but nice. You have chairs and umbrellas available for you on the beach too. If you're looking... More

“Location is perfect, but rooms are lacking”

Reviewed 12 May 2013

This was my second stay at Pacific Edge, and I hoped that the rooms had been brought up to par along with the rates, but not so much. Stayed in a beach front king in the Reef building, and the view from the deck was great, but not so much the rest of the room. Bed, linens and towels are... More

Although we're thrilled that you enjoyed being steps away from the beach, we wish that your room had left you with a more positive impression. Your comments are concerning, but we are glad to report that we are currently in the midst of making the necessary upgrades for our guests. We hope to have another opportunity to wow you with...

“Romantic get away or great family vacation”

My wife and I have been coming to Laguna Beach at least twice per year for over twenty years and, when we don't rent a house, we usually stay at this old favorite. This trip it was just the two of us to celebrate my birthday. We stayed in one of the newly remodeled rooms in the surf wing. I... More

“Great getaway...”

Reviewed 7 May 2013

We were very happy with both the location of the hotel to all the shops and restaurants (in walking distance) as well as the fact that it sits right on the beach, all you do is bring your bathing suit and they supply towels and beach chairs. Great value.

There's no better place to soak up the sunshine! We're thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed your stay. Thanks for the kind words, and let us know if there's anything we can do to show you a five-star experience! Cheers, Bill Tremper, General Manager More

Stayed a week and the location is very good. Walking distance to Ralph's grocery and restaurants and shops.

We're sorry to hear that our beach was a bit too busy for your liking—with the warmer weather, we do see a bit more congestion! Still, we're delighted that you were able to watch the dolphins playing in the surf from your balcony, and that you enjoyed your stay. Thank you! We'd love to welcome you back again soon. All...

“Pretty lobby, but a dumpy hotel.”

Reviewed 28 April 2013

Although the location is great, there are better choices in the same price range. The rooms have considerable deferred maintenance and are not cleaned well. Cheap (temporary?) fixtures and patio doors literally falling off their hinges. This is not a quaint hotel like many older beach hotels can be; this is a dumpy hotel with a pretty lobby. This was...

It's disappointing that you left with such a poor impression. While we do want our lobby to wow our guests, we want them to feel the same way about their rooms. We apologize, but we know that we can do better. We will certainly keep your words in mind as we move forward. Best, Bill Tremper, General Manager More

“All about location...”

Reviewed 23 April 2013

Stayed one night at the Pacific Edge in April. We chose it simply for the beachfront location and balcony. We were hoping for one of the newly renovated rooms but instead got an older beachfront in the Reef wing. The location was exceptional: open the balcony door and it was all right there: dolphins, sand, sea, surf. I can't say... More

Wow! It must have been so exciting to see the dolphins from your bedroom. Although we're glad that you were able to observe the wildlife, we wish that your room had left you with a better impression. We are in the midst of remodeling, and we would have been happy to move you to another room that better suited your... More

Laguna Beach is easy to understand, you are paying for ocean sounds, but don't expect anything but tired, old properties. Stay as close to the ocean and surf and sand as you can afford. I stayed in the Reef Tower, front suite, top floor, and as a regular at this property, I did not expect much from the room and... More
