Montage Lagune Beach

Montage Laguna Beach offers guests an unparalleled blend of natural beauty and refined comfort.

Montage Laguna Beach, the distinguished flagship property of Montage Hotels & Resorts, epitomizes coastal luxury. Set on a breathtaking bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean in the heart of Laguna Beach, a vibrant arts community, this resort spans 30 acres of oceanfront, offering guests an unparalleled blend of natural beauty and refined comfort.

In March 2019, Montage Laguna Beach underwent a comprehensive revamp to enhance sustainability, refreshing the lobby, lobby lounge, guestrooms, and amenities without compromising on luxury. The 262-room resort features beachfront accommodation, destination dining, and a wealth of outdoor recreation options, including three pools, beach and water sports, and over 31,000 square feet of versatile indoor and outdoor meeting space.

Turn-of-the-century elegance

Accommodations at Montage Laguna Beach embody turn-of-the-century elegance, with 262 guestrooms, including 59 suites and 37 beach bungalow-style rooms, all offering private balconies with spectacular ocean views.  Distinctive period elements in the unique craftsman-style design, like stone architecture, crown moldings, rich dark wood, copper gutters and a shingle-style roof, pay homage to the area’s rich artistic heritage, dating back to the early 1900s California Arts and Crafts movement.

Dining options include Studio, a signature restaurant offering modern coastal cuisine; The Loft for all-day dining; and Mosaic Bar and Grille, for California-inspired beach fare. The Lobby Lounge provides specialty cocktails and live entertainment, ensuring guests have access to exceptional dining and lounging options throughout their stay.

CALIFORNIA WILDFLOWER RITUAL 

“Created exclusively for Spa Montage and celebrating our Southern California roots this head-to-toe experience is a bouquet of vibrational technology, heated healing flower poultices and aromatic essences that are the inspiration for this restorative ritual. Beginning with full-body vibrational work, your therapist takes you on a journey that encourages your muscles to release and deep, profound relaxation to begin. After the soothing vibrational work, we then employ a customized massage highlighted with heated herbal poultices comprised of rice, calendula fower, lavender and chamomile. To further enhance your deep state of relaxation, we then wrap you in an Orange Blossom Soufflé and perform a relaxing foot scrub and massage.”
