The hotel is going under major renovation and remodeling the management. Staff are super friendly and they’re going way beyond to accommodate people who are not happy with their rooms due to the remodeling of the pool and other front area by the ocean view part of the hotel is blocked off!
Great & friendly staff! Beautiful views and property even with construction happening….
However, room rates should be discounted during renovation on site.
The property is beautiful and it’s a prime location for ocean views! Great staff and knowledgeable about area.
We spent $1800 for 3 nights yes $600 a night for peek a boo ocean view no balcony basic room that desperately needed updating! What we did get was a great view of major on going construction with hammering at 6am on a SATURDAY morning! The staff was accommodating and we had to move rooms twice. Once because the bathroom wasn’t cleaned and the second time for ongoing construction noise. The hotel gave us a VERY VAGUE message about the “lobby updating” a couple days before arrival. What they DID NOT say was it’s MAJOR construction. This was our 12th wedding anniversary and it’s the hotel we stayed at when we got married so we wanted to stay at the same hotel and it was a major mistake! DO NOT stay at this hotel for at least a year until the construction is complete. You can probably see the construction on google earth and see exactly what I’m talking about! EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED !!!
Clean, well maintained and staff were courteous and helpful.

I understand that this is a very high end resort and spa, but the fact there we received no forewarning that more than half the resort was closed off for remodel made our stay less than desirable. Staff was helpful and friendly. But the available amenities were not accommodating for the amount of guests present. For the amount of money paid this was not worth the cost.
Half the resort was closed for construction. No mention of this when I booked the resort. This was my 3rd time and I’m very disappointed. I only came back from the good experience. This is unacceptable!
We loved our stay at the Laguna Cliffs Marriott Hotel. It’s very clean, beautiful view of the ocean, easy access to anything that you needed. Everyone was super helpful polite and we will definitely stay there again.
