A Charming Gem in Laguna Beach
I had a lovely stay at La Casa del Camino while celebrating my birthday with a quick, grounding staycation. The staff was incredibly kind, welcoming, and respectful from the moment we arrived. There’s something special about staying at the oldest hotel in Laguna Beach (established in 1929!) — it carries a sense of timeless charm and character you don’t get in modern places.
The room was clean and well-maintained. The bed was a bit on the firm side, but overall the facilities were neat and in great condition. One of the best parts was the location — just steps from the beach, which made it perfect for a peaceful early morning walk along the shore.
While I didn’t get a chance to enjoy the rooftop due to overcast weather and our short stay, I look forward to doing so on my next visit. I also wish the cantina/restaurant had been open, but I understand that can vary depending on the season.
This place is affordably priced, full of character, and supported by a truly wonderful staff. I will definitely be coming back. Thank you, Casa del Camino, for a memorable birthday retreat!
