Le Petit Pali Laguna Beach

Was looking for a local getaway for my wife and I and got very lucky with a last minute booking for a single night.. I let the staff know it was my wife and I’s 4th wedding anniversary and that we would be coming after dinner. We arrived after dinner to a perfect room adorned with chocolates and cookies. My wife absolutely loved the Parisian aesthetic and touch Shaquille and Ryan went above and beyond making sure we were settled when we arrived. Then next morning fresh coffee and breakfast and a level of customer service that kept the ease and comfort of our getaway alive. If you’re in OC and want a little getaway without grabbing your passport THIS IS THE SPOT

Cottage cool decor meets mid mod in this gorgeous Laguna hotel. Even the standard room feels as if you’ve walked into your own private apartment. So many thoughtful details so you can envelope yourself in the homely vibes. I always love hotels that don’t feel like hotels, more like you’re staying in a rather fabulous home. It may be set just off the main road, but you get the sense of being transported far away from any hustle and bustle. The staff are all wonderful, you can’t fake authenticity.,|A quick walk across the road takes you to one of lagunas many coves that are great for exploring and relaxing on. We I didn’t get to hang out for long, it was pretty chilly and rainy on this visit, but our dog loved the cool weather ( we live in Mexico) and we still got to dip in the ocean briefly!!!|All in all, just a great experience and highly recommended….|Now…. The feedback:|There’s a continental breakfast which is pretty substantial if you are not vegan like us., the inclusion of a vegan yoghurt or have with fruit and granola would’ve been amazing. ( we would normally bring our own, but nowhere was open)|I posh place wouldn’t charge for parking, or just a minimal fee, it gets a bit crazy |My dog is a service dog, but why oh why do “pet friendly” hotels charge extortionate fees that are anything but friendly and cost as much as half of the room rate. I feel that needs a rethink. In Mexico feee are as little as $5 and higher fees generally mean you get a dog bed, bowls, a toy and food. I think it’s very u fair to charge so much especially if someone may be travelling with their dog and want to treat themselves to a beautiful hotel for once, it plus defintely make me wonder if it was worth it ( honestly, it’s not). So, criticism aside, it’s a truly gorgeous hotel with incredible rooms and a luxuriously comfortable bed, incredible staff and perfect location ( not right in the main hub of Laguna, but close enough ).

Our stay at LPP Laguna was outstanding! The only problem was that it was only one night- I want to move in! From the helpful and friendly check in to the absolutely delicious breakfast bar with Mo and checkout with Michaela, everyone was so authentically kind without overdoing anything- the kind of subtle but confident and sophisticated service you expect at a hotel much more expensive. The design was also such a standout- I don’t know why more hotels can’t embrace a beautiful, fun, comfortable, home-like setting. Most hotels have a very commercial grade feeling and LPP is completely different, like being in a beautifully designed home. I took so many mental notes and pictures of the lovely and creative design details, and really appreciated the substantial hardware, raffia wallpaper, lighting and plumbing fixtures, as well as the wool throw on the bed. Furthermore, this property in particular was so fun as it was clearly a design-forward motel from mid century, and the LPP renovation respects the architecture while reimagining the aesthetic and not taking it too literally or seriously. Needless to say, I came home with the book (and definitely appreciated the price listing of all the room items for sale.) The location is fantastic and it is easy to get down to beautiful Treasure Island beach in Laguna, where you can see crabs, anemones, etc in the tide pools. Importantly, we stayed with two of our elementary age kids (who loved the pool and were given pool toys by the staff multiple times) and they loved it and were treated so sweetly by everyone. The cookies were also delicious! I will be looking for excuses to stay in more Palisociety properties!

One of the best hotel stay experiences ever, everything from the decor and aesthetics of the room, to the location looking over the laguna beach were amazing. We got to see the sunset every day. Truly a very memorable stay! Very friendly staff especially Collette (I am not sure if thats how she spells her name) she was very helpful and warm to us. Recommended a few of local gems which is always welcome! One issue we encountered was that the coffee machine in the room wasn't working but it was fixed promptly once reported so pretty good service as well.

From the moment we arrived, we knew this stay was different. Every detail felt intentional. The design was stunning yet comfortable, elevated yet welcoming. The staff was genuinely kind and attentive, and the service felt personal rather than transactional. What stood out most was how it did not feel like a hotel. It felt like home with impeccable design, luxurious accommodations, and exceptional service. We truly did not want to leave, and that says everything. We will absolutely be back!! PS best cocktails!

Le Petit Pali Laguna Beach was one of the best hotels that I have stayed at in years. It is a newly opened boutique hotel in South Laguna Beach across the street from the Montage Hotel and Treasure Island Beach. South Laguna Beach is less busy than North Laguna and a quick 30-minute drive from John Wayne Airport. Plenty of parking in the hotel lot. Let me start out by saying that the staff are all WONDERFUL. They treated me and others with respect, answered questions and went out of their way to ensure that everything was perfect. The rooms were very clean, beautifully decorated with such charm from an old fashion looking "ice box" to mini chocolates, comfortable bedding, great complimentary lotion, shampoo etc...plus nightly "cookies" delivered to your room. The pool was fantastic, comfy lounges and towels with palm trees hanging overhead and beautiful flowers throughout the property. Complimentary champagne (and good champagne) at check-in and complimentary breakfast daily including champagne, mimosas, coffee, tea, juices, fresh fruit, granola, yogurt (delicious), bread and pastries. My only recommendation would be smaller pastries; can pastries be too big? YES, and unfortunately most guests barely could eat half. The beautiful Treasure Island beach across the street is perfect for laying out, walking it looking for sea glass and to watch the nightly sunsets that Southern California is well known for. Also in walking distance are some good restaurants including a great sushi one and a delicious pizza place next door. Le Petit Pali Laguna Beach is perfect for bachelorette/girl's getaways, couples and singles. I personally think the vibe is for adults only, but they allow children....I stayed in Room 11, loved it! Highly recommend this place and excited to come back to this hotel and try some of their sister properties!

My husband and I live in Laguna Beach. We found ourselves in the position of having to be out of our home for three weeks. A friend recommended Le Petit Pali, and it became our home away from home for this extended period of time. The manager was very responsive to our situation, and accommodated us in very practical and useful ways. The staff was friendly and fun, and we enjoyed spending time with them. We were there so long that we knew everyone by name. The breakfast was great each day. The decor at Le Petit Pali is beautiful, the rooms are extremely clean, and the ocean is a few steps away. We walked there every day, and watched beautiful sunsets in the evening. We were well tended to, and we observed that all of the hotel guests were responded to in attentive and very friendly ways. I’m so glad to know about Le Petit Pali, as we will likely go there for a weekend, just for a little getaway nearby! We will also highly recommend Le Petit Pali to family and friends from out of town. It is perfect for that sort of situation as well. Thank you to everyone at the hotel. You truly made our time there quite memorable!

The most charming stay on the west coast. I love Laguna Beach, I am delighted that my first ever over night boutique stay was with Le Petite Pali.. I was just in awe of absolutely everything. The aesthetic is very much Ralph Lauren Meets Beach!! The rooms were so spacious & the location was just PERFECT. I look forward to staying at their future properties in other areas.

I could write five paragraphs about how much I loved this place! If you're considering booking with them, stop "considering" and just book-- before they sell out! The staff, amazing! Breakfast, amazing! The room, amazing! The walk to the ocean, and the views, amazing! The only thing I didn't really partake in was the pool, but that's just because I was down at the ocean. They even provided beach towels, and chairs. Honestly, I'm still thinking about this place a week later, and have told about 20 people how they should stay here. Anytime I'm in Laguna Beach, I WILL be back. THANK YOU for such a wonderful and welcoming experience!

I was dying to come see this location in Laguna and was/am obsessed! My spouse and I spent our 7 year anniversary here and we loved being able to bring our fur baby with us. Everything about our stay was wonderful and highly recommend this place. It's perfectly located next to a gorgeous laguna beach and not too far from their downtown area as well. It was quiet and very clean! Staff were also very welcoming and warm.

Following check-in at Le Petit Pali, I felt like I had just arrived at a cool friend's beach house. The furniture and decorations in my room were French-nautical themed - exactly how my ideal beach cottage would look. The room was quite large and even had a kitchenette that was equipped with a retro-looking Smeg mini fridge. The toiletries were also super-luxe - I found Diptyque soap and Marvis toothpaste at the sink. Everywhere I looked, the details were on-theme: the room had an old-fashioned telephone, glass water bottles were placed on a silver platter, and there was a retro postcard included in the welcome materials. The next morning, I was treated to a lavish breakfast in the lobby. The offerings included French-style yogurt, granola, a variety of baked goods, fruit, jams, and my favorite part, a sculpted mound of butter. I enjoyed my breakfast on the patio while soaking up the sunlight and ocean breeze, followed by a scenic walk by the ocean. While the location of the hotel wasn't really close to anything besides the beach, my stay at Le Petit Pali felt like a mini vacation in itself. The only downside was the bar closed at 7 PM, which seemed unusually early. When I arrived at the hotel in the evening, I would have loved to have a light meal in my hotel room.

Absolutely loved our stay at this Laguna Beach boutique hotel. From the minute we checked in Katie was so sweet accommodating & amazing. The room was exquisite, very spacious and clean. The aesthetic is very Ralph Lauren Coastal just beautiful. Complimentary breakfast with your stay Karen was awesome & makes a mean cup of coffee & tea. Booked a Saturday night check out Sunday 25$ for parking over night " not bad considering the location" and direct access to the beach. The beach is right across the street & they provide complimentary beach chairs & umbrellas. They have the room stocked to the brim with goodies... Will most certainly be back for another stay...

I booked a stay on a Sunday night for my birthday over this past weekend. The hotel has a beautiful like vintage vibe and it's stocked to the brim with all kinds of goodies and snack snacks. The sunset across the street at the montage is not to be beat. I brought my pup with me and then they told me at the desk that there would be $100 charge for that they did not mention that parking is an extra charge so after booking a stay for about $300 and then having $100 pet charge and then $69 parking charge seems a little egregious to me if you're not going to mention it ahead of time.

This place is so cute! It's across the street from the beautiful. I'm finally having a snack at the bar thanks to Anthony who is a doll!! They have happy hour from 4-8 pm on Thursday's. Great vibes here! It has a vintage California coastal vibe and it's kind of like Palm Springs by the beach.

Beautiful aesthetic & amazing hosts at this darling hotel in Laguna. Excellent value for the location & amenities!

This place is absolutely the cutest most gorgeous spot! The attention to detail is immaculate. I highly recommend coming here. You will not be disappointed. From the Rosé at check in, to the warm cookies in the evening, everything is thoughtful. Le Petit Pali, PLEASE invite me back! Our stay was on a whim, I am SO GLAD we chose you!!!

I make the trip back home to Laguna Beach once a year and try to pick a different place every time and this spot has been our favorite so far. Location: Let's face it, regardless of where you stay, you're going to take your car to get to most spots so the hotel being a little far from the main downtown restaurants and shops was inconsequential. There's a container CVS in the center but it looks like the market has been shut down, although Google reports it's temporary. Amenities: Hotel staff came and emptied the adorable retro fridge so we could load it up with water and our drinks, it took them 30 seconds from when we asked to when they knocked on our door with an empty basket, ready to go! Bed was HUGE (we got a king suite) and was decently soft. The pillows were also nice and plush as well. The bathroom tub in our room was ridiculous. I'm 5'11", my partner is 6' and we were able to comfortably fit inside with room to spare. Food and service: The free breakfast in the morning was perfect! They don't have meats but they do provide soft boiled eggs, an assortment of fruits, bread, delicious jam, and lovely tea service. We went for my birthday and they left me a cute little slice of cake our first morning in. They also delivered delicious cookies around midday and my partner loved them. The only downside to our stay was that we paid a dog fee but they were out of pet beds and bowls when we checked in. Thank goodness we brought our own fur son's supplies.

Mozzarella's Review of Le Petit Pali - 5 Paw Rating! Bonjour! I'm Mozzarella, a pink poofy poodle princess, and I give Le Petit Pali in Laguna Beach a big tail-wag and five sparkly stars! From the moment we arrived, the humans were so nice--they even brought my momsie some bubbly (I got kisses instead ). The room was trés chic, with the cutest little fridge and lots of personality (like me!). And guess what? They gave me my own bed, bowl, and biscuits. A boutique hotel that understands a girl needs her comforts! Every morning, we trotted to the beach across the street--Treasure Island! I zoomied in the sand before 9 a.m., as is proper for a lady of leisure. Then I napped while my humans snacked on hummus and veggies. No crumbs were dropped, I checked. I also highly recommend Rapport next door (I sniffed approvingly), and my moms adored the gluten-free pizza nearby. This whole town was made for paws and pink bows. Thank you, Le Petit Pali! I'll be back--with more outfits. Licks and love, Mozzarella Duchess of the Squeaky Toys Warden of Zoomies Fluffiest Guest of the Weekend

Wife and I had an anniversary getaway at this fabulous hotel where we were greeted with a glass of champagne...nice touch! Katie, the bartendar with the great personality (Sorry I forgot his name) and the ladies who handled the breakfast and bar on Monday (Labor day) were all superb. Our room had a cozy feel to it. It was quiet considering it is across the street from the beach (wonderful view). The staff was excellent and we look forward to coming in the fall for a longer stay! Please make a reservation if you plan to be in the area!

This place is very cute. My friend and I planned a last minute girls weekend and only stayed here one night but we very much enjoyed ourselves. It's conveniently located across from the Montage. Would have loved to stay there but 2k a night wasn't in my budget. Le Petit Pali was surprisingly pricey at over $600 a night but it did include a nice champagne breakfast and free parking. This is a newly renovated property and the room was beautiful. I loved that there was a complimentary steamer, flat iron, blow dryer and hot water bottle. Also loved the robes/slippers. The decor was a mix of new/old vintage including the pool decor. They also have a great social hour. I didn't catch the guys name who led it all but he was larger than life and super friendly. Definitely went above and beyond. The staff was very accommodating letting us hang out before and after our reservation time. Loved that it was walking distance to the beach. Also really loved the free trolley to town. We were about to call an Uber until he told us just to catch the trolley. He also gave us GREAT suggestions of places to eat, hear music, etc. it's a little loud being so close to the highway but they supplied earplugs (very smart). Loved the shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion too. Would definitely recommend.

Le Petit Pali Laguna Beach is amazing, charming, fun, local and relaxing hotel. Right across the street from the beach. Everyone was friendly, inviting, nice, professional and more. Looking forward to more relaxing and recharging days/night. Poolside Blonde Marvel and Trestles IPA by Left Coast Brewing.

Magical Stay at Le Petit Pali -- A Hidden Gem in Laguna! We had a truly magical stay at Le Petit Pali in Laguna Beach. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with sparkling wine and warm, genuine smiles -- the perfect start to a charming Laguna Beach coastal getaway! This hotel is incredibly dog-friendly. They provided our pup with a cozy dog bed, food and water bowls, and even little dog biscuits -- such a thoughtful touch that made us feel right at home. The rooms are small but full of personality and style -- beautifully decorated, cozy, and well-priced compared to staying at the Montage next door. We especially loved the cute Smeg fridge and the snack selection available for purchase. The hotel bar offered healthy and delicious snacks -- I enjoyed fresh vegetables with hummus, and there was also guacamole with gluten-free corn chips available (I didn't try the chips, but the veggies were fantastic!). After settling in, we took a short walk through the beautiful gardens of the Montage (just across the street!) and down to Treasure Island Beach. It's the closest beach and absolutely breathtaking. Dogs are allowed on the beach during summer before 9 a.m. and after 6 p.m., which was perfect for evening walks. For breakfast, we dined at the Montage -- wonderful experience. We also visited C'est La Vie in downtown Laguna Beach, where we found delicious gluten- and dairy-free options and a gorgeous ocean-view patio. We even met the chef, Charlie -- so friendly! There's a free trolley stop right in front of the hotel, making it super easy to explore. We didn't use it since we had our car and a service dog, but it's great for those without pets (note: non-service animals aren't allowed on the trolley). Parking downtown was very manageable, and we loved browsing the cute local shops. Nearby, RAPPORT Coffee had fantastic matcha, and Z Pizza next door surprised us with really tasty gluten- and dairy-free pizza -- a must-try for anyone with dietary restrictions! We also dined at Sapphire at The Pottery Place and attempted to try The Cliff Restaurant, but weren't impressed. The Cliff was overcrowded, and no one ever came to take our order, so we left. At Sapphire, the food was mediocre and we were crammed into a tiny table right next to strangers, even though many other tables were available -- we won't be returning there. Next time, we'd stick to meals at the Montage, pizza at Z, and French fare at C'est La Vie -- all were delightful. Overall, we had a wonderful, relaxing, and joy-filled stay. Le Petit Pali is a hidden gem, and we'd happily return again and again. Highly recommend!

My husband and I spent a few days at Le Petit Pali last week. We had a wonderful time, other than when we went to have a drink before dinner at the bar. Patricia, the bartender, was very rude and made us feel extremely uncomfortable. It was as if we were an inconvenience for her. She did not seem happy at all taking care of any of the other guests either. That experience alone is making us reconsider our next trip. We were thinking about inviting a group of our friends to join, as the location is beautiful and we enjoyed the rest of our visit, but after this experience, I don't believe we will return. We cannot bring our friends somewhere with this kind of customer service. I urge you to re-evaluate your staff in the bar. Thank you.
