Laguna Beach’s iconic Surf & Sand Resort has debuted its highly anticipated, property-wide transformation, ushering in a new era of coastal luxury on one of Southern California’s most coveted stretches of shoreline. Perched steps from the ocean, the reimagined resort offers guests an immersive and elevated beachside experience that blends modern sophistication with the soul of Laguna’s artistic spirit.
The redesign touches every corner of the resort, beginning with all 165 guest rooms and suites, each now boasting a private balcony with uninterrupted ocean views. Bespoke furnishings, Italian marble finishes, soaking tubs, and smart tech enhance the sense of refined relaxation. The rooms are designed to feel like an extension of the beach, with floor-to-ceiling glass doors and natural materials.
A standout feature of the transformation is the all-new Lobby Lounge, where guests are greeted by sweeping Pacific views and Mediterranean-inspired architecture. A curated collection of artwork, including pieces by Dale Chihuly and other celebrated artists, reinforces the resort’s connection to Laguna’s vibrant arts scene.
A Chihuly chandelier at Splashes acts as a centerpiece, reflecting the sea’s fluid beauty in hand-blown glass. The resort’s signature oceanfront restaurant now features an updated coastal-chic aesthetic and an innovative menu crafted by Executive Chef Ron Fougeray.
With waves crashing below, diners enjoy seasonal dishes made from locally sourced ingredients. Adjacent spaces like the Bella Vista Terrace and Splashes Bar offer relaxed yet refined settings for cocktails, small bites, and panoramic views, while Pacific Perk serves elevated café fare for guests on the go.
Comfort has also been elevated, with motorized window treatments, personalized climate and lighting controls, luxury minibars, and nightly turndown service with thoughtful amenities.
The redesigned Aquaterra Spa invites guests to unwind in serene treatment rooms, while beachside yoga and wellness programming reflect a health-conscious lifestyle. The transformation extends to 20,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor event space, ideal for meetings and celebrations with an ocean backdrop.
With every detail designed to showcase the resort’s beachfront setting, Surf & Sand Laguna Beach now stands as a revitalized gem along the California coast. Learn more by visiting surfandsandresort.com.
