Every year Travel + Leisure readers participate in the ‘World’s Best Awards’ survey to weigh in on their travel experiences around the globe. Hotels are rated on their facilities, location, service, food and overall experience. In California we have no shortage of amazing hotels to chose from when visiting the golden state.  So imagine our excitement that The Ranch Laguna Beach was selected as number six on a list of 10 resort hotels, and the number one Orange County hotel on this prestigious World’s Best list. 

Travel + Leisure readers raved:

They “found the Ranch at Laguna Beach (No. 6) to be an impressive escape, likening it to “a private village…tucked away but right near Laguna’s shops and nightlife.”

The rooms are a dream and decorated by a local designer, Tuvalu. 

As a National Geographic Unique Lodge of the World, 

The Ranch, boasts sustainability efforts like no-single use plastic on site, line caught sustainable fish in all their restaurants, and a glass crusher that breaks glass back into sand for use in their sand pits on the 9-hole golf course. 

Activities for every season and every member of the family.

It’s no wonder that one of Laguna Beach’s own was rated a Top 10 resort!
