The hype
The grounds and service are flawless, but the price tag sets an impossibly high bar that the rooms sometimes struggle to clear.

Краткий обзор: It’s a masterpiece of Craftsman luxury, but you’re paying $1,500 a night to sleep next to a very popular public walking path.
Подтверждено @femme_foodie: I checked into the Montage and was blown away. The bathroom is huge and the bed is super comfy, but stepping onto that balcony to see the endless Pacific Ocean was the highlight of my trip. It’s the perfect spot to disconnect.

FAQ и советы
Всё, что вы действительно хотели бы знать перед бронированием.
Is the beach private?
No. All California beaches are public. The hotel has a set-up with chairs and umbrellas for guests, but the sand is shared with the public.
How much is parking?
Valet is $75/night with in/out privileges. There is no self-parking for guests on property.
Is it kid-friendly?
Yes, surprisingly so. There's a dedicated 'Paintbox' kids club and a family pool, but the vibe remains upscale.
Can I walk to dinner?
Yes, but options are limited. La Sirena Grill (casual) is across the street. Downtown Laguna is a 10-minute drive.
Is the spa worth the money?
Yes. It's 20,000 sq ft of bliss. The adult-only spa lap pool is a quiet sanctuary if the main pool is too busy.
What is the resort fee?
Approximately $80/night. It covers wifi, fitness classes, and beach service.
Советы инсайдеров
- ✨
Walk down to Aliso Beach (south of the resort) to 'Lost Pier Cafe' for a toes-in-the-sand breakfast burrito—way cheaper than room service.
- ✨
La Sirena Grill in the shopping center across the street (South Laguna location) has incredible sustainable Mexican food for a fraction of resort prices.
- ✨
The 'Treasure Island' public parking lot (Lot 7) is right there if you have guests visiting you who don't want to pay $75 valet.
5 вещей, которые нужно знать перед поездкой
💡The 'public' path is literally *in* the resort. You will be sunbathing while people walk their dogs 10 feet away.
💡You can rent a fire pit at Lost Pier Cafe on the beach below for a fraction of the hotel's fire pit cost.
💡The lobby lounge has a $100+ minimum spend for non-guests at peak times, but as a guest, you can grab the best seats for sunset without the hassle.
💡The 'Horizon View' rooms often look at the pool or gardens more than the ocean.
💡Security is polite but firm about keeping non-guests out of the hotel-exclusive areas, creating a weird 'us vs. them' vibe on the lawn.
