What You Need to Know
The Look of Surf & Sand Resort Laguna Beach
Situated along the shoreline, Surf & Sand Resort in Laguna Beach stands out for its contemporary coastal aesthetic. Its exterior features soft, stucco walls in warm, neutral tones along with wrought-iron railings and terracotta tile accents. Inside, expect plenty of open, airy spaces filled with abundant natural light courtesy of expansive glass windows overlooking the ocean and wide, arched doorways to transition between indoor and outdoor spaces, including the garden and beach areas.
Public spaces are done up in crisp shades of grays, creams, beiges, and white. These hues, coupled with warm light woods, only enhance the serene vibes. Beach-inspired decor is also woven throughout the property in the form of artwork and fresh flora, both adding a fun flare with a touch of sophistication.
The same color scheme and design elements found in the common spaces also extend into the guest rooms, where private balconies overlook the ocean. For more space, splurge on a suite, most with separate living areas and larger balconies, and some with bonus features like soaking tubs and fireplaces.
The Vibe at Surf & Sand Resort Laguna Beach
Relaxed and effortlessly chic all at the same time, Surf & Sand Resort Laguna Beach embodies the essence of laid-back coastal luxury, just as the town it calls home has. The gentle crashing of the waves and salty air set the tone for a serene escape, further underscoring the beachy-chic aesthetic. Overall, staying here feels like you've escaped to your effortlessly stylish friend's beach house — if said beach house came with world-class dining, spa treatments, and a front-row seat to SoCal's spectacular sunsets.
Guests here can — and often do — make themselves at home on the beach or pool before heading back upstairs to catch the sunset on their balcony or enjoy an in-room spa treatment. For R&R, make a beeline for the Aquaterra Spa for a massage or manicure (or both!).
When it's time for a meal or a cocktail, there are several options to choose from, including the newly renovated Splashes Restaurant, which serves up contemporary coastal-inspired cuisine (think hamachi tartare, lobster bisque, and roasted branzino) in a stylish setting; the al fresco, fire pit-dotted Bella Vista Terrace for lite bites like tuna nachos paired with hand-crafted, beach-themed cocktails like "Ocean Majesty" (berry-infused empress 1908 gin, Pamplemousse liqueur, rose water, citrus infusion, lemon juice) and "Sandia Shores" (Ocho tequila, Cointreau, watermelon juice, lime juice, agave nectar, black lava salt) There's also Coastline Cafe, one-part coffee shop, one-part chic boutique and two bar, The Lobby Lounge and Splashes, both of which offer postcard-worthy views of the Pacific.
