If you want to dine out, just walk down the beach from your room, and over to the Beach House  for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and cocktails. There is some cool history and a great energy about the restaurant:

The original Beach House Restaurant was founded in 1968. The structure was the former home of Old Hollywood character actor, Slim Summerville. The house was built in the 1920’s and the restaurant has retained much of its character and charm, with original woodwork, fixtures and wrought iron décor. Slim starred in films such as “All Quiet on the Western Front” and “Tobacco Road” to name a few.  His star is seen today on the Hollywood Boulevard Walk of Fame. There are even rumors of Slim’s ghost  happily wandering through the restaurant late at night!

A great getaway or vacation would not be complete without a divine spa! Again, no need to get in your car. Athena Day Spa is just a few more steps in the sand away, down the beach. Athena Day Spa is a tranquil and peaceful relaxing atmosphere. The design and feel is reminiscent of a Roman Bath. When you step into Athena, your modern day stress will transform into a relaxing, magical experience. Athena Day Spa in Laguna Beach is a family-owned business with over 20 years experience in the spa industry.
