The transformation also includes upgraded conference facilities, the refreshed Resort Pool and Bella Vista Terrace, the debut of the Aquaterra Spa, and the reimagined Splashes restaurant and bar, ideally located on the water's edge. The resort has been purposefully designed to celebrate and showcase one of Southern California's most picturesque stretches of coastline, promising guests an immersive coastal experience that gracefully transitions from sun-drenched days to dramatic sunsets and starlit evenings.
The completely redesigned 165 guest rooms and suites at Surf & Sand, Laguna Beach each feature a private balcony with ocean views, oering a heightened sense of coastal luxury. The resort's design transformation emphasizes coastal luxury with sunlight-soaked spaces that showcase bespoke furniture pieces, Italian marble finishes, and integrated personalized technology. Each room features glass patio doors that seamlessly connect the interior space to the ocean waves below, further enhancing the sense of openness and light. Guests will appreciate the refreshed naturally lit bathrooms, many featuring deep-soaking bathtubs with beautiful ocean views, alongside spacious showers and luxury amenities. Thoughtfully updated balcony furnishings enhance relaxation with unobstructed views of the Pacific.
The signature restaurant, Splashes, led by Executive Chef Ron Fougeray, oers an exceptional and innovative coastal dining experience featuring seasonal, locally sourced California ingredients and ocean-inspired dishes. Beyond its acclaimed cuisine, Splashes serves as a true connection to the heart of Laguna Beach, beloved by both resort guests and Laguna locals. The redesigned space boasts a brighter, more vibrant aesthetic and is bathed in sun-drenched California ocean views, all basked in soothing sound and mesmerizing sight of waves crashing just below. A true focal point of the space is a custom-designed Chihuly Chandelier sculpture. This elaborate piece features hundreds of hand-blown glass elements inspired by the sea that interact harmoniously to create a singular and unforgettable visual experience. Guests can also savor oceanfront bites and handcrafted drinks at Splashes Bar and Bella Vista Terrace, while Pacific Perk serves a tailored coee experience and quick, convenient options for breakfast, lunch, and snacks.
The resort ushers in an all-new arrival experience with the unveiling of its Lobby Lounge, providing a captivating oceanfront view from the moment you arrive. Guests are welcomed with spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean in the open-air lounge featuring comfortable seating and service. The refreshed design balances Classical Mediterranean architecture and the resort's Southern California oceanfront location, complemented by a personally curated collection of artwork throughout the lobby and resort spaces that showcases prominent artists, including Dale Chihuly, Ran Ortner, Eric Zener, Georey Gersten and Kelsey Irvin. These art installations not only spotlight acclaimed local, regional, and national talent but also reflect the vibrant artistic spirit and coastal beauty that define Laguna Beach. By honoring the luxury resort's storied legacy through a fresh, contemporary lens, the resulting design feels both sophisticated and enduringly connected to the destination.
Beyond the exquisite design and ocean views, guest comfort has been meticulously considered throughout the resort.
