Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort and Spa
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.

Absolutely loved staying here! Our suite was just the perfect size for our family. We enjoyed the pool, Jacuzzi and the view of the beach from our balcony.

Amazing deal. A suite for price of room. Comfy, charming view, perfect location
Was perfect for what we needed, just two bedrooms, a bath, a nice porch with a view, and coffee! The host was very nice and personable. Answered every question promptly even if they had answered before and I missed it.
