Everything was absolutely perfect. I love boutique hotels because of the intimacy and the friendliness of the staff. breakfast was included which was a nice surprise, the records in the room were charming, and the resort was very well maintained and in a perfect area of Laguna Beach. Can’t wait to return!

Charming boutique hotel in north Laguna Beach. Steps away from a hidden beach. Very quiet. Staff is excellent and so helpful. You feel a world away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Great weekend getaway from LA!

Had a wonderful stay cation here at the charming hotel. The heated pool and area with palm trees is like you are staying at a friends home but with nice drinks and fresh towels. Lovely breakfast is included w nice strong coffee. Everything feels like a European- California blend. Perfect.

The bar and staff and hotel were overall great, but you don't get to choose the location of your room and if you get stuck on the street side it's very loud throughout the night. Wish it came with ear plugs.

I was here for 4 nights and I absolutely LOVED my experience!! I felt at home the second I came in. Staff was extremely friendly and was above and beyond. Nothing more that I could ask for. Beautiful property, heated pool, great breakfast, nice rooms, Salt and Stone toiletries,great bathrooms too. Walking distances to great restaurants and beaches. The ONLY thing I was sad to hear is that it’s an adult only hotel. So, I can’t bring my grandson. But I myself will DEFINITELY be back!

The place is cute but the rooms are very small with little privacy. The wifi is so bad that we had to use our hotspots. The staff were lovely, and the location is good which is why I am giving it a three-star. We will not likely stay again.

The Hotel Joaquin is a beautiful hotel in an ideal location. I appreciate the stylish rooms, particularly the spacious bathhouse style shower and tub. Our room, Thalia, did not have an ocean view, so if I was to book again, I would research which rooms have the views I would want.
