    The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel Laguna - South Beaches

    A short guide to Laguna - South Beaches

    Reality TV portrays Laguna Beach as the land of the young and spoiled. But beneath this veneer is a city rooted in the arts. The Laguna Playhouse is one of the oldest theaters in the West Coast. The city also hosts the annual Festival of the Arts/Pageant of the Masters and the Sawdust Art Festival. West of Laguna Beach, Crystal Cove State Park’s unspoiled beach attracts snorkelers and divers.

    The one thing I disliked was when my husband and I were at dinner and the maid came in our room to do the nightly turn down service. She went through my bags and laid out my stuff, I found it very rude and she invaded my privacy. Other then that one time, I refused anymore nightly turn down services. My husband and I enjoyed our stay, the hotel is beautiful […] and the restaurant Raya is delicious. Our waitress Elizabeth was awesome. Read more

    The hotel is VERY expensive, so it's disappointing that parking adds an extra $35 and there's a $25 tourism fee. Also, there is no coffee maker or minibar in the room, so if one wants even a cup of coffee or a beer, one must use room service and incur a delivery fee plus 21% automatic gratuity. The Raya restaurant: The service was exceptionally good, […] but the food was disappointing. The chef adds a "hispanic flavor" which in the dishes we tried made the food less appealing. And at breakfast, the smoked salmon and the fruit plate and the coffee were very good, but the huevos rancheros were disappointing. But the location is superb, the rooms are very well appointed (except as noted above) and all the staff were very helpful and pleasant to deal with. Read more

    This was my families first trip to the Ritz Carlton, and it was a 5 star experience! From the warm welcome that was given to my husband and I and our 2 children (3 1/2 and 17 months) to the time we checked out, everything was perfect. The pool was wonderful, the restaurant where we ate every morning was fantastic and accommodating to our family, the […] beach was fantastic, and the beach butler service even better! Our room was right off the pool, perfect for my family, it was clean and roomy, the bathroom with separate sink areas was perfect, the walk in closet allowed us to make the Ritz our home for the week. It will be very hard to stay anywhere else in the future, the Ritz really knows customer service! Read more

    Previous guest had left food in the fridge (apparently missed by housekeeping) which made it stink once we opened the fridge door. They gave us another room, with a better view of the ocean, but also frontal view of a tractor that's being used in renovations. Pool was also closed with ugly fencing around it. Overall, this did not add up to a "Ritz-Carlton" […] quality experience. The views are great, but the hotel is a bit dated, and service is often stilted. Read more

    This hotel has really great staff/service and a beautiful location on the ocean. The rooms really do need renovating. Worn carpet, stains on the upholstery, rusted shower fixtures, rusted AC vent and loud! You pay for 5 Star and you get 3 Star. The food is just average. The Spa was nice. I made the mistake of using the pool side bathroom and was completely […] grossed out by the uncleanliness and there was kiddie poop in the sink from a diaper changing. At the end of a day with a ton of kids the pool is dirty and stuff is floating in it. I stuck to the beach after that. It probably was 5 star back in the day, but it's definitely not now. You would be better off spending your dollars on some great dining out and stay at one of the smaller properties in Laguna Beach. I think what keeps this place going is the weddings and it's great staff and naive people that don't know what 5 Star is supposed to be. Read more

    The general service at this Ritz doesn't meet the 'Ritzy' standards we've come to expect from this hotel brand. Examples include messing up room service dining orders twice in four days, not delivering our luggage to the room in a timely manner, forgetting our request for a microwave/refrigerator, and wasted time at check-in (1-2 hours) regarding package […] incentives included in our Expedia reservation. On the bright side, its location and views of the Pacific Ocean are magnificent. The rooms were also comfortable and clean. Read more

    I must say my expectations were high, headed down to the Ritz Laguna Niguel. When we arrived, our room wasn't ready so we hung out by the pool. It was 4pm and I checked to see if the room was ready yet. It wasn't so we were offered a few free drinks while we waited which was nice. Upon entering the room, I was highly disappointed. I was expecting our […] Deluxe Ocean View room to be immaculate. To my surprise, the room was very small. The walls were scuffed, lampshade stained, curtains dirty, dvd wood stand old and chipped...chair stained and old. They need to maintain their hotel rooms. Other than that, the rest of the hotel was very nice. The Jacuzzi had berries that fell from a tree all over the ground with leaves that could have been cleaned up...Food at Raya was good, breakfast was ok but not worth $100 and that wasn't even the champagne brunch!

    This is a magnificent property. The decor inside of the hotel is equally magnificent. The richly colored carpet, walls, vases with roses and sculptures are jaw-droppingly beautiful without making you feel like you are in a museum. Dinner in the main restaurant was beyond wonderful. The seafood rizzoto was spectacular and so was the lamb chops. The waiter […] even dropped rose petals on our table. The view is amazing from the hotel because of the fact that you are on top of a cliff but very easy to get down to the beach. We watched surfers from the outside terrace which was really cool. The rooms are extremely impressive and the bathrooms...oh, the bathrooms!!! I can't wait to return and when I do I will be sure to bring the extended family.....can't wait. Read more

    I had a garden room that unfortunately faces an outside walkway and a wall. No garden, but a noisy pool about 50 feet away. At 6AM I found out that I was next to the room where they store all the cleaning crew carts.

Did not stop […] making the loud noises all morning, even with calls to the front desk. Poor design and location. They need to put some soft rubber tires on those carts if they are going to be wheeling them across a rocky/rough walkway at 6M 10 feet from my bed. Read more
