Our favorite Laguna Beach stay - even more so than properties several times the cost. Everyone who works there is so kind, and the rooms are perfect for families. The kitchenette facilities are so convenient. Also, this inn has hands down the warmest heated pool. We’ve comfortably enjoyed it in December and January - it’s amazing.

It's well located. Relatively quiet considering it's on the street, which gives it its excellent convenience. Very clean and extremely well laid out in each room. It's a tried and true favorite. Parking is a challenge. That's the only downside.
