The sun peeks over the verdant canyon walls and awakens this South Laguna Beach hidden gem, quietly tucked into Aliso Canyon just moments from the Pacific Ocean.
Its 87 acres have become a place of respite, surrounded by awe-inspiring natural beauty, farm-to-table cuisine at Harvest Restaurant, and the necessary trappings of an elevated resort – 97 cottage inspired rooms, nine sublime fairways, a luxe spa, biodynamic farm and countless amenities and activities.
The Ranch at Laguna Beach is a sought after and award-winning destination where guests can disconnect from the frenetic energy of everyday life.

The location was perfect for quiet relaxation onsite and for easy access to enjoy the nearby beach via an onsite path and local activities via the free Laguna Beach Trolley stop next door to the resort's driveway. The onsite restaurants (farm to table and delicious), spa, and golf (9 holes that anyone can play, regardless of skill) make this location a one-stop spot even if you never leave the resort.

This is one of the best resorts I have been to for families. Service was amazing and our son had the time of his life, corn hole, golf, bocce ball, pool - we didn’t have time for the beach but am already planning to return we absolutely loved it! The Ranch exceeded all expectations and you can tell that the employees truly love their jobs they are so happy, so passionate and still committed to true hospitality! Great job to leadership everyone was incredible.

The Ranch at Laguna Beach enjoys a magical setting tucked into the canyon alongside the creek -- but an easy walk to the beach. The team is warm and welcoming. We'll definitely be back.

Second time visiting The Ranch at Laguna Beach and they did not disappoint. We've always felt like welcomed VIPs, even our daughter, and cannot wait to stay again.

The Ranch is in a secluded little canyon that is gorgeous! The rooms are beautiful and the staff really works hard to make your stay a true vacation. They have chairs and umbrellas for Ranch guests at the Lost Pier (a food shack) on a great beach a short walk from the hotel. We enjoyed the guitar player on the patio overlooking the golf course and canyon. We came home truly relaxed!
