Rooms & Rates
Overview
Nestled in a canyon off the Pacific Coast Highway, the Ranch at Laguna Beach is its own retreat located in the heart of Laguna Beach. The resort evokes a summer-camp vibe with rustic buildings, spacious grounds, plenty of activities and deer roaming the property.
The canyon oasis is a mix of rooms, suites and cottages scattered around the picturesque 87-acre property. The private accommodations make it the perfect place for a romantic getaway or family weekend. Each room is decorated with elegant coastal ranch decor and features a private outdoor furnished patio or balcony to take in the canyon or creek views.
There is no shortage of fun at the hotel with plenty of activities for everyone. Golf enthusiasts can enjoy the naturally lush nine-hole golf course. Water babies can relax at the pool or take a two-minute ride on the complimentary shuttle to Aliso Beach, a family-friendly beach with a playground and bonfire pits. Outdoor fanatics can also serve it up on the sand volleyball court, and spa lovers can enjoy treatments at the newly opened Sycamore Spa which spans over 3,000 square feet and features a 24-hour fitness center.
Harvest Restaurant specializes in American and California comfort style cuisine, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Guests can also enjoy craft cocktails, hand-selected wines and local brews at the bar. Many ingredients are grown in the property's quarter-acre garden, and handcrafted food and drink is the main focus. Ben’s Pantry offers coffee with freshly baked pastries and artisan-style sandwiches and snacks as well as a full bar. Enjoy food and drinks from the comfort of your room with in-room dining, or poolside soaking up the sun at the Pond Pool Bar.

The canyon and golf course setting, and the meals were fantastic. Great chef!

They have private events, which can limit access to common areas and parking. This is aggravating as a guest. Also makes it noisy due to canyon setting.
