My husband and I enjoyed our stay at the ranch at Laguna. We were able to enjoy the pool on site as well as being a quick walk to the beach, which was really lovely. It was a great romantic getaway for a long weekend!

The area that the hotel is nestled within it’s extremely nice, the main building adds a nice ambience. However, the hotel rooms while updated, still provide the appearance of an older establishment. The pool is quite small and can fill up very quickly. Additionally, the images of the beach utilized to promote this hotel are of a near by public beach, and while it works, it is somewhat misleading for those looking for more exclusive getaway.

It’s a nice place and it doesn’t feel like the heart of Orange County. Facilities like the pool and gym are a little bland and could be a little more like a resort and less like a motel but still cool.

We fell upon this property by accident when the hotel we usually stay at in town was closed for remodeling. What a wonderful reprieve this resort is. It is beautiful, quiet, just a 10 minute walk to the beach and there restaurant on the beach. If you don’t have a car and have to shuttle into town, they will either give you a ride to where the city shuttle picks up or you can get an Uber. The only negative, and it is only negative if you don’t have Wi-Fi calling, is it there are very few places on the property that have cell phone service. But they all have Wi-Fi calling. We will definitely be back

We had an amazing weekend at The Ranch. Very thoughtful accommodations. A quick walk from the beach, with complimentary beach towels, chairs, and umbrellas available. The Harvest restaurant surpassed our expectations with perfectly prepared dishes using fresh and flavorful ingredients--after our first Harvest dinner we stayed onsite for most of our meals because of the quality. The "scout camp" farm tour in the morning was very interesting and informative, and has us thinking very seriously about gardening and raising chickens ourselves. Would definitely recommend and re-visit ourselves.

For the price, some things did not measure up. The views are great, golf course is beautiful. I heard a “beeping” truck ALL day starting at 6am. There is no PC to use if you want to print something. You must go to the front desk. There was limited hot water the morning I left. It ran out after 5 mins. The “spa” has a sauna, but you can only use it if you get a message or so I was told. It should be open to anyone. I would only stay agin if the it was less expensive.

This property is set back from the road in a canyon in Laguna Beach. I was looking for something quiet so this property was perfect. It has a circa 1960's upscale ranch vibe. There are a couple of restaurants on site and a pool bar. There is a great 9 hole golf course that is both fun and challenging. There is also a spa that is frequented by locals as well as hotel.guests. The customer service is outstanding. Every employee i encountered during my visit made the stay more enjoyable. I will definitely return for another visit.

This was a 1 night getaway for us (we're locals), so we wanted a quiet place with good on-site dining. What we got was maintenance noise starting at 7:03 am which sounded like a truck was backing up into our room (for 25 non-stop minutes!) We tried all the food options on-site were served very average food, including in a very noisy Harvest restaurant- which sounded more like a Bar. Also, we noticed at night when we walked around that most of the rooms were empty. If the staff would have had any consideration at all - knowing that they are preparing for an event and that there would be noise around the building we stayed - they should have set us up in another building farther away and maybe with a view better than the opposing buidlings old air conditioning units. If the room itself was not nice we would have given this a 1 star because they really failed in everything else!

I love this place and I’m looking forward to returning. The room pricing was very reasonable. The room was very nice and clean, parking was very convenient, the restaurants food and staff was outstanding. The hotel entire staff was amazing. The only issue I had was I went into the golf shop and was totally ignored. I walked around the small shop and was never greeted or asked if I needed anything and another young man walked in and he was addressed immediately I was disappointed and I walked out. I will say this I’m not a person that is easily unnoticed when I go places so I felt it was done on purpose.

This hotel is very lovely and in a beautiful location. It is also really close to the other things to do in Laguna Beach. The only small complaint is that the beds are squeaky. Roll over in the middle of the night and wake your partner up squeaky. They werent overly uncomfortable, however. It just depends on how sensitive you are to that.

Great service and room, beautiful property. but No cell service anywhere on the property, this should be disclosed ahead of time not at the hotel lobby when we check in. Wireless was SLOW. wireless calling did not work. Parking was not regulated so unregistered cars used my hotel guest parking spot. Walking path to beach is a small dirt path alongside the road where cars drive. No walking path from room to main hotel lobby/restaurant/reception hall, you have to walk in the street with cars. When we called for the golf cart transport for an evening event from our room to main reception, delay over 15 min so we walked in the street with cars instead, there should be more staff available or scheduling available for big events

I would not recommend The Ranch at Laguna Beach at all. Not only is the staff rude, they were very incompetent when we asked various basic questions such as breakfast times, transportation, gym times, etc. In addition, the internet and cellular connection is incredibly limited so it was impossible to communicate outside. This made coordinating UBER and pick-ups virtually impossible. A very over-priced stay considering how inconvenient it is and how poor the service was.

Lovely and relaxed stay. Free shuttle service into town. Beach close by. Staff lovely and very happy and helpful. You can’t really walk anywhere- the walk up the hotel is very dark. They should have a security or barrier as it’s very open and we did see random people fishing at 11pm. Would be good if it was a little more secure. Phones needed to contact reception on the grounds- our key wasn’t working and we had to walk ages to reception.
