What guests say
8.6 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 197 guest reviews
Hotel Joaquin earns strong praise for its prime Laguna Beach location, stylish retro-boutique aesthetic, and genuinely friendly staff, with most guests leaving delighted. However, practical shortcomings — including no in-room TVs, unreliable WiFi, occasional cleanliness lapses, and high resort fees that aren't clearly communicated — temper the experience for some. Overall sentiment is very positive, though guests seeking full modern amenities should set expectations accordingly.
