Top Crystal Cove Beach Hotel Reviews

Crescent Bay Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great experience at the hotel. Always fun to stay by the beach!"

The Tides Laguna Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful place. Perfect location. Friendly staff. Loved the pool. Downstairs rooms are a little loud with and the rooms don’t black out so bring earplugs and eye mask if you are sensitive. Overall great place and I’d come back."

Costa Art Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The check in staff were wonderful, very friendly, helpful and even gave us fresh cooked cookies. The morning staff was nice, but not real friendly. Nice rooms, recently renovated. Breakfast was sufficient, coffee was great. Very close to the beach, a bit steep walk, but we made it. Would definitely stay again if in the area."

Marriott's Newport Coast Villas

10/10 Excellent

"We thoroughly enjoyed our time I recommend it to everyone"

Casa Lagunita: An artistic, ocean-view retreat!

10/10 Excellent

"Nice setup, good view of ocean, great interior decorations and quiet neighborhood. I would stay again in the future"

Iris House - Three Bedrooms, Loft and Private Patio

8/10 Good

"Great location. Beds and linens great quality. Appreciated having AC especially due to heat wave during our stay. Communications were excellent. This is an older property reflecting its age with some quirks (eg master bath). Pictures need to be updated (eg living room shows furniture and rugs not there anymore) and not filtered to be more accurate."

6 Blks from beach. Walking distance to restaurants, shops. Excellent location!

2 Bedroom - Marriott's Newport Coast Villas - Full Resort Access

8/10 Good

"Family friendly resort great for large families. Property is being renovated and the older rooms are dated and rundown. Beds are very uncomfortable."
