An LA’s The Place Top Pick for 2010!
Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort and Spa, located in Dana Point, California, has done the impossible: It’s improved on paradise. At Laguna Cliffs, panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean aren’t enough. Instead, this gorgeous getaway spot adds world-class hospitality, sumptuous accommodations, luxury services, top-notch sports facilities, and business-ready quarters to the mix. If that impressive list doesn’t convince you, maybe Laguna Cliffs’ string of AAA Four Diamond Awards will.
Best of all, the Laguna Cliffs Marriott is accessible via all major forms of transportation, from planes to trains to automobiles. This resort is meant to be experienced, and after their visit, Laguna Cliffs guests are unlikely to forget this destination soon.
Adding to this bliss, Laguna Cliffs has just completed a full-scale renovation of the premises, with refurbished guest rooms, expanded indoor meeting and banquet facilities, and a marble lobby complete with waterfall. Outdoors, the pool areas now include a family pool with a Splash Zone, water cannons, and more family-oriented entertainment. Also, eco-friendly changes have been made to the landscaping to bring in plants that require little or no water, yet remain beautiful and aesthetically pleasing.
Whenever you go on vacation, your first and last impressions are usually of the room where you stayed. In that regard, Laguna Cliffs ensures chic, comfortable surroundings characterized by bright colors inspired by the nearby beach. Choose from 378 guest rooms, including deluxe suites, executive suites, parlor suites, and one presidential suite. No matter what your level of luxury, you can expect to find 250-thread-count linens, on mattresses that are above and beyond what the hotel standard for beds are; which means you will sink into heavenly bliss when you retire. The pillows are also the most comfortable as well. In addition, waffle-weave robes, premium cable channels, flat-screen TVs, an iPod dock, and a safe, along with the typical accoutrements such as a hair dryer, a coffeemaker, an iron, and an ironing board are provided in every room. Business guests will certainly make use of the wireless Internet, dual-line telephones, and working desk in each room as well.
Of course, a whole world awaits outside of your hotel room. For your dining needs, the hotel restaurant Vue serves food all day, from breakfast to dinner using the best, freshest ingredients, all in a relaxed but fashionable setting. Vue masterfully presents a variety of exquisite and delicious Californian cuisine.
The more casual OverVue Lounge & Deck offers drinks and entertainment in a refined, yet playful environment. At both Vue and OverVue, you can sit indoors or outside and take in as much of the surrounding natural wonders as you’d like.
When you’re tucked away in the lap of luxury, the toughest question you face is how to spend your day. You won’t get away from these difficult decisions at Laguna Cliffs, but who can complain when faced with such enviable options? Fitness and sports buffs will be pleased to know that they can stay active during their visit to Laguna Cliffs, which offers quarters for yoga, volleyball, and swimming, to name just three possibilities. Guests can also rent bicycles or board games, and trails for joggers and hikers dot the landscape at Laguna Cliffs. Golf courses, jet skiing, sailing, and fishing facilities are located nearby.
If you prefer pure relaxation, then head straight to the spa, where you can take your pick of the requisite services, such as massages, facials, waxing, manis, pedis, hair and makeup. For a more holistic program, try one of Laguna Cliffs’ spa rituals to balance your energy, release your tension, and renew your health. Couples can make use of specialized spa services with dual massages, exfoliation, and body wraps. Wedding parties are welcome to make reservations at the Laguna Cliffs spa, as are other big groups, whether you’re convening a reunion, a business meeting, or any other grand gathering.
Believe it or not, business and pleasure are not mutually exclusive pursuits–especially at the Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort and Spa, which offers more than 50,000 square feet of meeting space for companies of all sizes. The high-tech projection system can take your presentation and patch it to different meeting rooms–an especially nice touch if you have several groups scattered across a number of rooms. Guests can also enjoy high-speed Internet access and phone capabilities at each of the Pacific Learning Center’s 60 workstations. And when it comes time to feed your colleagues, Laguna Cliffs’ catering team can bring a world-class menu to your organization.
Whether you’re from the area or traveling from afar, Laguna Hills is accessible by planes, trains, and automobiles. Flying in? Orange County’s John Wayne Airport is 30 minutes away. Coming by car? The resort is situated halfway between Los Angeles and San Diego. Do you prefer the rails? No problem–Amtrak delivers passengers to San Juan Capistrano, a short cab ride away. In light of this ease and comfort, only one question remains: Why aren’t you here?
