- Lon (10/5): A wonderful place with a beautiful ocean view - Location was fantastic. We didn't eat any breakfast. I don't recall them offering a breakfast Nothing. It was a great place.
- Pierce (10/5): -
- Mackenzie (10/5): Perfect Stay - Loved absolutely everything about my stay. Only stayed one night but would have def stayed more had I needed to. Very clean room, bathroom, and loved having a parking space. Also the staff was very kind and made check in/out a smooth process. Nothing
- Catherine (7/5): Nice place , great location and friendly staff. - Location, great view and helpful staff Could use a lot of updates with the furniture and a thorough cleaning.
- Davis (10/5): -
- Deborah (8/5): -

- Michael (5/5): -
- Tracy L. (8/5): -
- Lisa (10/5): -
- Ernest (10/5): - The host was very informative about access to the beach and beautiful scenery Loved everything about it
- Judy (10/5): Crescent Bsy is the place to stsy! - Sal and the ladies were very kind. Sal told us how to catch the trolley, and showed us the paths to the beach and a beautiful vantage point overlooking ocean! The price was quite a bit less than other hotels. The room was quiet, secluded, and perfect for our needs!
- Leila & Dan (8/5): -
- Mark R (8/5): -
- Ruth (1/5): -
- Wendy (8/5): Would probably stay there again. It was quiet, the staff was very friendly and let us check in early - Location to beach, surrounding shops and restaurants. Property is a bit dated, could use some upgrades.
- Alicia (7/5): ok. Laguna is very expensive hence this price. - The room was ample and tasteful This is a motel, no service. Parking spaces are too narrow.
- V9567CYnatalies (10/5): Great location near beautiful beach at a great price - Had a great experience at the Crescent Bay Inn. I had stayed at a much more expensive hotel for the first two nights and needed a more budget friendly option for the last night. It's definitely a motel, not a fancy hotel, but if you get building C you will have a nice ocean view and the rooms are clean, well appointed and modern. But the real stars of the show are: 1. Cost---MUCH more affordable than most other options. 2. Management--the manager (owner?) was friendly and responsive to all my requests 3. LOCATION!!!! This motel is a short (1/4 mile? ) walk through gorgeous neighborhoods down to the most beautiful beach I have ever seen! No crowds, the most beautiful crescent shaped beach flanked by sheer cliffs and palm trees...just gorgeous! and it even had a lifeguard on duty!
If you want to have a Laguna Beach experience at an affordable price, look no further!
- Joseph Vincent (8/5): It was decent for the price and location. - Location and price. It is a simple room. The facility is clean and quiet. It is located close to downtown beach area and downtown. Free parking. Not a beach front. Not a beach view.
- Marialuisa (10/5): -
- Jackie (3/5): Disappointing and smelly. - The girl in reception was very friendly and helpful. This was not what we expected. The sea view was over the top of buildings and trees and the balcony was the walkway in front of the room. No lifts so 1st floor involved lugging our luggage up stairs.
The room was big and looked tidy but it had a very old, urine-ish smell to it.
We didn't stay, we paid for a better place down the road.
- Ola (9/5): - Veldig bra beliggenhet! Veldig bra personale. Dårlig wifi på vårt rom.
- Kim (9/5): -
- Melanie (8/5): Comfortable, well-located, friendly - beach nearby! - Sal was very lovely and friendly - I have no doubt that had we had issues, he would have resolved them. Location was great - just a short walk to the beach, stores and a couple of cafes. Bed was sooo comfortable- I slept incredibly well. Nothing in particular was negative. In hindsight I would have paid extra for a view, as we fell sick and so spent more time in the room than expected, but you cannot predict these things!
- Carolyn (9/5): -
- O9328MDbriang (8/5): Great experience! - Great guest service. Room was super clean. Only issue was that we had to wait for someone to come to the office for check-in. Otherwise, really satisfied with the stay overall.
- katherine (8/5): Awesome - view, proximity to ocean kinda pricey
- Dr. Lindokuhle (6/5): - Old and average.
- Stephanie (10/5): - Parking is safe. Views are beautiful. Access to free trolley is close. Sal was very kind and shared lots of details for making our stay eventful.
This is an affordable and nice option in a very expensive beach town, so keep that in mind when booking.
- Jocelyn (10/5): - Sal was great and the room was nice!
- Chad (6/5): - Excellent location! Beach, cove is walking distance, small peaks of the ocean on shared front doors patio, if you’re six foot tall…., unfortunately room smelled bad.., chemicals.., aired out in a few hours after we came back, never closed the windows., just anticipated check out…
- Georgette (8/5): Super friendly -
- Nannette (8/5): -
- Sierra (8/5): Clean, no frills hotel close to the beach with a safe and quiet atmosphere. - This is a basic no frills comfortable room with good parking, easy beach access, and friendly staff. The hotel manager was very helpful and attentative. We love Laguna and will stay here again.
- Lynn (10/5): - Sal was a fabulous host, very friendly, nothing too much trouble
- thepadgetts2016 (4/5): Give it a miss! - This was the final stay of a month long roadtrip. What a mistake. It is a very basic motel described as something much better. It's on the far end of Laguna beach and although the room appeared to be clean it smelt bad, I would say cleaning stuff over stale urine🤢
There is no elevator so heavy cases would have needed lugging up stairs and the 'sea view' was across the top of buildings and through trees.
May be my fault for not checking it out properly but definitely not as described.
We didn't stay, booked into somewhere else close by.
On a plus, the young lady who was on the desk was lovely and helpful.
- Chance (10/5): - Very affordable stay and I loved that it was like 5-10min from the beach walking. Bed was super comfy and the management knew a lot about the area which was cool. Would recommend this place if you are looking for a more affordable hotel/motel.
- Robert (10/5): - Beautiful ocean view!
- jessica (10/5): - the room was very nice and a great price
- Gardella (9/5): - Great location with a path to the beach
- Michael (10/5): - I would stay again.
- Celia (10/5): - Good location, close to the beach, not too far from downtown, Free parking
- Chris (8/5): - Exactly as advertised ! Worth the extra $ for the ocean front room since they are also the furthest from the noisy road making those the quietest rooms .
- Rhonda (10/5): - This was a great place to stay! So close to the beaches!!
- Kelli (10/5): - The people who own & run the hotel were lovely. I will definitely stay there again next time I return to Laguna
- Louise (10/5): -
- Tracy (10/5): - This was a lovely small hotel situated within a 5 minute walk to the beautiful Crescent Bay beach. Sal and his family were so friendly and welcoming, giving us loads of tips on things to do. They went above and beyond to make our stay just perfect. The room was clean, very comfortable and extremely well equipped. We loved it
- Jordan (10/5): - Great hotel. Close to beach.
- Berenice (10/5): -
- Dana (10/5): - Not the fanciest place but the young lady (did not get her name) went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. Customer service is everything!
- Stacey (10/5): - Good value for the money. Good location. No pool.
- Eric (8/5): Wonderful, clean hotel room a few minutes walk from the beach. - The room was well appointed and clean, and the bed was very comfortable. The hotel is about a mile from the downtown area, so isn't really walkable. The owner, Sal, was a pleasure to meet and even gave us a tip on where to watch the sunset, which was a three minute walk from the hotel. Beach access was another easy three minute walk. The only ding was the complete lack of WiFi. Both of our phones could link to the provided network only sporadically. No big deal for us, but if you need a strong, consistent, WiFi signal for whatever reason, this isn't the place. Would definitely consider staying here again based on the room cleanliness and easy beach access. The WiFi sucked. The network only showed up sporadically and wasn't always available even after connecting to it. Not a deal breaker, but you should know this.
- Tania (10/5): - Parking locations are tight.
- Ariana (10/5): - Great location and service. SAL is very kind and lovely. I will gladly return.
- Giovanna (9/5): - Struttura Ben organizzata e pulita , tovaglie da mare in prestito , doccia esterna e mare a pochissimi passi. Sal, il proprietario è stato molto gentile.
- Carlos (6/5): - Ubicación muy buena Wifi MUY POCA SEÑAL
Muy caro para calidad de alojamiento
- Lydia (10/5): -
- Fumi (10/5): - Very nice rooms. Very near beach and trolley. Affordable.
- Barger (10/5): We had a great time! - We were greeted by Sal, a very nice guy. He explained all the amenities and where to find good food. We loved the beach access and plan on coming back in the future.
- Karen (10/5): Nice Hotel - Very nice Hotel. Sal is very welcoming and helpful. The room was very clean and nice. Easy Trolly or Lyft to downtown. Will definitely stay again when in town.
- Janet (9/5): Very pleasant - Room
- Cora (10/5): - Loved the view, the quiet sitting area outside and ocean access.
- Lise (10/5): - Continental breakfast is not served as described on the website.
- Irma (10/5): - Il
- Zoe (10/5): - Very nice space
- Brandi (8/5): - Great access to Creacent beach, property had umbrellas, chairs even some boogie boards available for use which was fantastic to take the short walk down to the beach! Very helpful staff in getting us set up to catch the Laguna trolley.
- Robyn (10/5): Weekend in Laguna - Darling sea side hotel. Super clean, easy walk to Crescent Bay and the staff is lovely. I would stay here again.
- Toni (10/5): - This hotel was awesome. Clean, local to where we celebrated our anniversary dinner. Staff was so friendly & went above & beyond showing us the pathway to the beach, which was a 3 minute walk, even offered to start the patio fire pit for us. Only down side, we had an oceanfront room & the trees needed to be trimmed to see the ocean, but I believe it’s a property in front of the view. We will definitely be back!
- A. (8/5): Nice stay, close to the beach - The hotel is located just outside the center of Laguna Beach, close to a beach access that’s amazing at sunset. The room was spacious and clean.
- Paul (9/5): - Great location for walking into town and to the beach. Reasonable prices for Laguna Beach. Friendly staff. Refrigerator and microwave in the room. Free parking.
- Alan (9/5): Enhanced a loverly birthday get-away - Beach view (and could hear waves crashing at night). King bed very well done. Good hot shower and nice fluffy, absorbant towels. In room kuerig coffee, refrigerator and microwave with comfortable bed. Close to beach access, with no-cost beach towels to borrow and thoughtful outdoor shower for after-beach rinse. Nice quieter north part of Laguna. Host, Sal, was friendly, informative and helpful. Exceeded expectations of what had once probably been a simple motor lodge, now upgraded nicely. Instructions for using TV
- Lutzker (6/5): didnt like the mess up that still is not resolved ! - The staff could not find our reservation.
- Rinad (10/5): - affordable, and worth every dollar
- Kathleen (10/5): - The welcome was wonderful and informative. We got all our questions answered and felt great!
- gail (2/5): - The room was overlooking rooftops of another building and was described as beachfront . The towels had stains and the bed was uncomfortable and the sheets weren’t clean.gross. When I went to the office to let them know how unhappy I was , the wife was seething with hate and the owner blamed everyone else . The stairs going up to the room were dangerous and the walkway was old , rotted looking . It is called an inn , but there’s no food or drinks. The door to the lobby(if that’s what you could call it) was always locked . I felt unsafe. The owner was as rude as you can get, blaming me for picking the room, like I had a choice .
- Richard (10/5): - Awesome property. Owner was friendly, helpful, and a joy to talk to!
- amy (10/5): - Staff was great. Room was clean and comfy. Not really beachfront.
- Eric (10/5): - Great location and service. The couple who run the place were so helpful and friendly!
- Annamarie (10/5): - Staff very friendly and welcoming and allowed early check- in when room was ready with no additional fee. Room and property was basic but very clean and fairly priced. Slightly obstructed but nice view of beach from room. Convenient walk to beach. In Laguna for the Pagent of the Masters and a short walk to the free trolley. Will come again.
- Betty (7/5): -
- Ashley (8/5): -
- Joyce (10/5): - Great stay at this hotel. Great location.
- Evemarie (10/5): - Quaint property, easy walk to the beach. Staff was so friendly, accommodating and helpful with everything; great insight into local attractions. Would definitely go back to this location.
- Nicolas (10/5): - It’s very close to the beach which makes it very convenient.
- Dawn (10/5): - Location is close to beach and parking is included in the rate, rooms are renovated and well appointed with comfy bed, excellent shower. We had a quiet room with a little sliver ocean view and could hear the waves. Sal is really nice and helpful about the trolly to festivals and restaurant options. Good for a quick overnight or cheap weekly stay a short distance from the super crowded main beach area.
- Elsie (8/5): - The staff are nice. Our room is clean. The property is a little bit dated and needs a little bit of sprucing up.
- Laurie (10/5): - Great hotel, close to the beach, close to downtown, incredibly comfy bed!!!!
- Stefan (10/5): Traumurlaub in einer Traumdestination! - Tolle Lage, fußläufig zum Strand mit Meerblick und sehr gepflegter neuwertiger Ausstattung.
- Poes27 (6/5): It’s ok… - It’s a reasonably priced stay in an expensive area but could use improvement. The bathroom was good but the room was dark and dated. There was a smell of cleaner or something in our room which wasn’t great. It’s very close to the beach and the check in process was easy and friendly. It’s not the worst but I’m glad I only stayed one night.
- Ponton (10/5): Parfait - Proximité de l’océan (plage magnifique et point de vue exceptionnel surtout à l’heure du coucher de soleil), chambre au calme avec petite vue sur l’océan , au calme (dans le bâtiment le plus éloigné de la route). Rien à redire.
- Elizabeth (8/5): Delightful - Close to Beach/Ocean. Easy to walk to Beach/Ocean, park, shopping, restaurants. Nice to have a carport to park in out of the sun. It was quiet. I did not hear other guests coming and going . The front office staff was very friendly and accommodating he let us check in early. Gave great information on the area and how to get around easily (trolley schedule etc)
- J (10/5): - We have stayed at several properties in Laguna over the years and all the rooms are basically the same. What sets The Crescent Bay Inn apart is the caring staff who go out of their way to make sure you're comfortable and needs are met
- Valerie (10/5): Great - Very nice
