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!

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.

5 Stars – Perfect Laguna Getaway

My wife and I stayed at Crescent Bay Inn for three nights and absolutely loved it. The highlight of our trip was being just a 3-minute walk from Crescent Bay Beach—perfect for peaceful morning strolls. The location couldn’t be better: you’re within walking distance of all the charm Laguna Beach has to offer, and if walking isn’t your thing, the local trolley makes it easy to get around. If you're looking for a more lively nightlife scene, Newport and Costa Mesa are just a 20-minute drive away. What truly made our stay special was the incredible hospitality from Sal and his team. Sal went above and beyond, sharing local tips and must-visit spots that really enhanced our trip. Friendly, helpful, and genuinely welcoming—exactly what you hope for in a host. We’ll definitely be back!

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.

The inn is conveniently located in Laguna Beach and there is a close cove within 5 minutes walking distance. The room itself was dated and uncomfortable. Contrary to what is written on the website, there are no down comforters or pillows, the sheets are threadbare and definitely not 450 TC, and the mattresses are overly soft and uncomfortable. When we arrived, the innkeeper informed us that there would be no housekeeping for our 3 nights stay. The wifi is unusable. We had to use our cell phones as hotspots. What is really concerning is that the information provided on the website is patently false.

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.
