This place is incredible- probably the best hotel experience I've had. We've had some not so great experiences recently, so we weren't expecting much, but this place blew us away. Very good vibes, good service, and overall just a top tier experience.
We paid for just the basic garden room, but it was anything but basic. We had our own private gate & walkway leading to our room, a nice living room area, bathroom, big master bedroom. Didn't feel like just another hotel room, it felt like we had the master suite. Other rooms I think have ocean views, but we were totally happy with the garden view and privacy that we had in our place.
Complimentary robes were a nice touch. Also, after we checked in & received our key, we were offered a welcome beverage that came with fresh (and I mean fresh) chocolate chip cookies. We were then handed a complimentary breakfast menu order, where we were told to mark down whatever we wanted to order, and schedule a time for it to be brought to the room or picked up from the lobby. Complimentary, custom-order breakfast room service! So fun! The man at the front desk who checked us in was so friendly & kind & made us feel welcomed. It was pretty chilly that night, so we asked him if there was any hot tea we could have. Five minutes later, he brought over some nice herbal tea for the two of us to our room, on the house. Quick, kind & caring service!
This place is a little far from the main downtown laguna area, but we decided to uber for dinner, which was a cheap $6 trip from the hotel. Well worth it, considering you have to hunt & pay for parking everywhere in the area. We were glad to leave the car at the hotel & get dropped off right at our destination.
The parking lot is up this extremely steep hill, & kind of small, but we managed to find a spot with no issues. And the hotel itself is pretty small which means you don't have to carry your luggage far from your car.
There's a nice pool & a nice patio next to it that overlooks the ocean. We brought our breakfast out here & really enjoyed the view. Complimentary coffee & OJ in the morning was pretty good. And the check-out process was smooth, with no surprises.
We were so glad to stay here & have been telling all of our friends about it. Hope to come again soon!
