Amenities & Services

Hotel Joaquin is an adults-only property that offers a heated outdoor saltwater swimming pool open year-round. Guests can borrow beach gear and bicycles from the Adventure Outpost for complimentary use. The on-site Saline Restaurant serves Mediterranean-inspired cuisine for breakfast and lunch, and the bar provides handcrafted cocktails each evening.

Rooms & Unique Touches

Each of the 22 rooms is equipped with a vinyl record player and a curated library of records instead of a television. Select rooms such as La Vue and Soleil offer ocean views, while others overlook the garden or courtyard. A thermos of fresh coffee is delivered to every guest's door each morning, with requested milk preferences noted the night before.

Dining & Culinary

Complimentary breakfast at Saline includes dishes like French toast, eggs and bacon with kale and potatoes, and raw granola. Guests can order light poolside bites at lunch, and the bar serves a signature welcome cocktail called The Greeter upon arrival. The bar menu offers wine, champagne, and a selection of creative cocktails, all served in the lounge overlooking the ocean.

Location & Surroundings

The hotel is a three-minute walk from Shaw's Cove, a secluded beach known for snorkeling and diving. Heisler Park, Laguna Art Museum, and Crescent Bay Beach are all within walking distance along the coastal path. Guests can also take the free trolley to Main Beach and downtown Laguna Beach without needing a car.

Evening movie nights are held on the lawn in front of the bar, and guests can borrow board games and puzzles from the living room lounge.
