The Casa looks great on the web, it's a different story in person. This hotel is NOT ON THE WATER. There are houses between you and the ocean. I booked a "superior room" for the ocean view. To be candid the room was tiny, dated and did not have a clear view of the ocean. It had a clear view... More

I was really excited to stay at this hotel after hearing great things about the restaurant and roof-top deck. The lobby was impressive, but the room didn't seem to fit with the rest of the hotel. I thought it looked a little dated and on the shabby side considering the recent renovation (per the hotel's website). I love old hotels,... More

My husband and I booked the La Casa Del Camino for a friend's wedding in Dana Point. We were both a bit surprised when we realized that there was no Air Conditioning in the room. However, with the fans at the window and the ceiling fan, we actually were cold at night. It was great to hear the ocean to... More

This hotel is a bit on the old side. The positives are the location which is literally a block from the ocean. Nice staff and unique design. Like other posters have said the rooms are small. I would guess maybe 300 square feet and that might be generous. Also if you are on the PCH side it is LOUD. Overall... More

What a lovely hotel this was. The rooms were beautiful, the service was fabulous and the food was delicious. The beach is right there, along with great shops and restaurants, all in walking distance. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Laguna Beach!

The personable staff and pretty lobby doesn't offset a dingy, crowded room stuffed with furniture, lit by two 40 watt bulbs, sporting a single tiny window filled with a fan. It also seems that the bulk of travelers who seek dog-friendly hotels have poodle/rooster mixes. Very pricey, and you can only spend so much time on the very nice rooftop... More

From the minute we entered the door, from the hustle and bustle of PCH, we were treated as if we were the only guest in the hotel....like royalty. Our every desire was catered to, and our every notion was improved upon. Hence we recommend to the most detail oriented person. Your desires will be improved upon, from your conception to... More

Beach lovers, small-town lovers, lonely travelers...this is your home away from home in Southern California! The owners love their hotel and their guests, and it shows. I've stayed here two or three times now, and love the place. Rooftop patio overlooks the ocean, staff is warm and friendly, free internet access via PC in the lobby or in your room,... More

This hidden treasure in Laguna Beach is absolutely wonderful! I hosted a meeting for key customers from across the US at the hotel. Everything was outstanding - the service, the ambience and the location. The manager, Chris Keller, paid attention to every detail and the meeting was a great success! Everyone loved the hotel - some even postponed their trips... More

Had to travel to Laguna Beach for business last week and was sick & tired of the overpriced Marriott, Hyatt, etc. so looked on Trip Advisor for something different. La Casa Del Camino had it all-- charm, ambience, views, great service, comfy bed, and overall an experience unique to the scenic and artistic climate of Laguna Beach. Very affordable with... More
