The hotel was great. Sal and his wife were very accommodating and helpful. The room was very comfortable and the location was great. It’s 3 minutes walking from the beach They provided beach chairs and buckets and beach toys for the kids. We will return to the hotel if back in Laguna. The only downside was some early evening road traffic noise if your room is close to the road.

Booked this last year and this year for my April birthday. Sal is very willing to take care of you and is a very good property manager. Very nice stay if you want to stay in the northern Laguna Beach area. Trolleys easy to get to to take you downtown. And Crescent Beach access is very close. Will do this again.

This was an incredible place to stay! The little hotel is a bit dated, but the service and the cleanliness and accessibility to everything we wanted was top-notch. Sal was so helpful from the time I made my reservations all the way through my trip. I can’t say enough good things about my service at Crescent Bay Inn.

Sal (the owner). Was very helpful and gave good advice about the area.
The block we stayed in was a bit tired. But at this price point and location. A lot of these things can be overlooked on a short stay as they were outnumbered by the positives.

Convenient spot for getting to a run in Crystal Cove state park. Had to find a place to purchase decaf coffee for the Keurig coffee maker since they only provide regular coffee. I had no idea how difficult finding parking was on a weekend in Laguna!
