Laguna Surf Lodge by SCP Hotels

WINNER

Located in the heart of Laguna Beach, Laguna Surf Lodge by SCP Hotels is a 41-room beachfront retreat set directly along one of Southern California’s most iconic stretches of coastline. Within walking distance of the town’s galleries, boutiques, and restaurants, the property offers an easygoing stay with immediate access to swimming, surfing, and coastal trails.

Originally opened in 1948, the reimagined lodge blends its historic roots with a refreshed design that draws on French Riviera influences and a relaxed Mediterranean sensibility. Guestrooms range from ocean-view suites to family-friendly layouts, many with private decks, kitchens, and fireplaces, all finished with Scandinavian-inspired interiors and wellness-focused details.

Amenities include a private saltwater pool, sun deck, and direct beach access, along with programming such as beachfront meditation, sound baths, and surf experiences, creating a stay that balances coastal activity with a slower, restorative pace.
