My husband and I come here at least twice a year! The resort is fabulous, and you can not beat the outstanding view!! So close to the ocean it sometimes hits the building!! The restaraunt Splashes is soooo romantic and the cocktails in the bar are amazing. You will not be disapointed!! more

Best view from a hotel room I have ever had! Annoying to have to pay $13 for internet. I was on a business trip so the room was paid for but I would definitely return with my wife. We had buffet style food in the business meeting which was quite good, so i imagine that the restaurant food would be... more

My daughter and I choose the Surf and Sand Resort for our "girls getaway" weekend. We were not disappointed. Our room was beautiful and spacious, with incredible views of the ocean and Laguna Beach coastline. We loved everything about the spa. From the services, to relaxing in the beautiful courtyard before and after our appointments. The spa services are outstanding...a... more

My wife's only request for our anniversary was to fall asleep and wake up to the sound of the surf at the Surf and Sand. Ninety minutes and a world away from our home in the San Gabriel Valley it was the perfect escape. We were blessed with beautiful weather, but knew that it would not matter. Even in stormy... more

Hotel is beautiful and in a great location. They have an excellent chef and helpful staff. Our sleeping rooms were beautiful and the views... more

Our stay here was supposed to be the grand finale to our honeymoon but turned out to be a hugely disappointing and frustrating end to our trip. We paid nearly 2000 dollars through our travel agent who requested deluxe room. S&S instead gave us the worst room they had, with no privacy whatsoever. We complained and were told that there... more

Was a great visit. Was a little more expensive but well worth it. Laguna is a great little town and having this hotel just up from down town was great. Far enough away to have peace but close enough for a nice dinner or just a stroll at the beach park. Great shopping and tons of restaurants. Our room was... more

Good: Location and beach service Bad: old room that wasn´t very clean they should have sound proof windows because ocean and people on the beach at night are very loud But worst, there is a LOT of drinking going on here, I have never seen so many drunk people in a hotel. Even during daytime I saw a lady crawling... more

We came to the SS every summer for over 25 years, with our children then continued to some without them. In time, the dramatic ocean setting was all that is left. The desk staff became callous and very cold years ago. The rooms deteriorated, esp the tenement-like bathrooms, at least in the Tower. I noticed that at least one other... more
