Top Top of the World Hotel Reviews

La Casa del Camino

10/10 Excellent

"Probably the coolest place you can stay in Laguna!"

Laguna Beach House

8/10 Good

"Wine and cookies were a few under amenities. No idea. Do not drink alcohol or eat marginal cookies. Was charged a rediculous fee where was it in fine print?"

Capri Laguna on the Beach

8/10 Good

"Nice view from room and multiple viewing decks for better view"

The Tides Laguna Beach

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our 25th anniversary weekend"

14 West Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"So amazing"

SCP Seven4One

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay! Very clean property and all the staff was super kind and helpful! We booked a sea facing room which was really large with almost a living room and a bedroom. Our king size bed and pillows were super comfy! There was a shared deck space with ocean view right outside our window. As long as we kept the curtains closed, anyone out there couldn’t see us in our room. The main hotel had a pool and hot tub for our use and beach front. Unfortunately we didn’t have time to use the pool or hot tub. And we walked to Main Beach because there was a lot more space. This hotel was easily in walking distance to the main beach and the main town. And we walked from our hotel to see the views from Heisler park. Our first time in Laguna Beach. We can’t wait to go back and we would stay at this hotel again!"

Casa Loma Beach Hotel (formerly The Inn at Laguna Beach)
