Montage Laguna Beach Hotel

The rooms are very nice, big, and clean nice views. The service is top notch, never an issue, they go out of their way to help, etc. The ocean views are excellent and the grounds are impeccable! The hotel is large and in a very nice spot above a beach so you have access to the beach if you get tired of the pool. Speaking of pools, there two pools; family and spa. The family pool gets a little crazy, so if you do not have kids you need to go to the spa pool. Only issue was the last time we stayed here and we saw tons of people just walking by the side of the hotel while sitting in our balcony which does not make it feel very private. The first disappointment, we encountered was immediately walking into the hotel to find out the lobby was completely closed due to a current renovation. It would have been nice to know in advance about the lobby's closure so we could have planned accordingly, in our opinion, this is one of the best features of the hotel. All and all I really love this hotel. It's very nice and I do feel like I get what I came for a luxury Laguna beach experience.

This hotel is always a beautiful spot to enjoy. The views and ambiance are undeniably gorgeous and the food at Mosaic is always so yummy. The pool is always heated so regardless of the time of day or weather, it's really enjoyable to jump in to. They have a separate children's pool as well. The Jacuzzi is a little frustrating to get to (and is really odd in general) as you have to leave the main pool area, but it's not really a deal breaker. The Front Desk Agent we checked in with was a little rude, but thankfully we met a gentleman who's name I believe was Alex and he was wonderful. He even sent an amenity to our room to welcome us back to the property which we found to be very thoughtful. Normally, Montage is really wonderful about acknowledging special occasions, however I found that during this trip, that was not the case. We were celebrating two birthdays and we weren't impressed with the outcome. The Loft was incredible and really made the celebration sweeter as well as the servers at the Pool. They were really hands on with recommendations for our dietary restrictions as well as drinks. All in all we had a beautiful trip and a really wonderful time. I did hear that they are undergoing a slight renovation so just be aware for any immediate future plans. I would recommend asking the resort directly for more information.
