Epic Family Staycation at Pacific Edge Hotel

You just can't beat arriving to Pacific Edge Hotel on a Friday to catch the gorgeous sunset across the ocean's horizon. For Shelby Barone of the OC Mom Blog, this wasn't just an experience for her, but one that she was able to share with her entire family!

"The kids squealed with delight while watching dolphins jumping  in the waves while the sun slowly disappeared on the horizon. We took our shoes off and walked down the beach for an evening walk before dinner. Our family bond became stronger than ever before as my husband and I walked hand in hand while talking about our week with the kids splashing their toes in the water."

After a steak and seafood dinner at Driftwood Kitchen, the family retired to their guest rooms to refuel for their weekend at Laguna Beach! 

"With our heart full of love, we drifted off to sleep with the sound of the crashing ocean waves and awoke to the sound of seagulls flying in the fresh morning air."

Shelby and her husband took turns lounging and relaxing on our provided beach chairs and towels to taking the kids from the ocean to the pool for their family-fueled day of fun! 

Pacific Edge Hotel is the best spot for families to STAYCATION in Orange County! OC Mom Blog and her family had an EPIC time at PEH and noted on her blog that the kiddos fell right to sleep as they pulled away from their weekend in paradise!

Diary of a Debutante Lounges in LB

When three Florida beauty bloggers make their way out west, they must take a FIRST CLASS holiday to Pacific Edge Hotel!

We were delighted to host Stephanie Ziajka of Diary of a Debutante, Mash Elle and Ashley Brooke in Laguna Beach for the weekend before they headed up to LA for the Gen Beauty by ipsy conference. Being friends made this one fabulous slumber party and as our Diary of a Debutante puts it... "The view from our balcony was simply breathtaking, and our close proximity to the water made multiple mermaid photoshoot mandatory."

This is the first of three recaps we will be posting, so stay tuned!

Make sure you follow Diary of a Debutante for more amazing photos of her and the girls lounging in Laguna Beach:  Facebook,  Twitter,  Instagram &  Pinterest.

Carrie Bradshaw Lied Takes a "Staycation"

Carrie Bradshaw may be a household name but life and style blogger Kathleen Barnes from Carrie Bradshaw Lied takes a more realistic approach to living the good life!

Kathleen and her husband Christian escaped to the Pacific Edge Hotel for what we locals love to call a STAYCATION!

"Usually when we travel...we spend so much time researching the area - from extracurricular activities to restaurants, beaches, hikes and so on. With a STAYCATION, you don't have to worry about any of that - you know the area, and instead get to see your town as an outsider. Honestly - it's so much fun!" 

During their stay, Kathleen loved sleeping to the sound of the waves crashing, as she describes is "what dreams are made of." Her hubby especially enjoyed taking in the surf only a few steps away every morning and collectively dining at the Driftwood Kitchen (which has recently been nominated as "Best Restaurant of the Year" by the Laguna Beach Chamber of Commerce.) 

"The hotel embodies the California vibe, blending surf and beach cottage...the whole weekend has me thinking I need a little condo on the beach. Dreamy!" 

And while we think Kathleen's photos from her stay are "dreamy" -- we can all agree that Pacific Edge Hotel is the perfect spot to getaway from your everyday life and enjoy a "staycation" at the beach!

Travelfluential Dream Daycation

"This summer we vowed not only to go to the beach - but to make it special."

Well, there's no place like the Bungalows at Pacific Edge Hotel to make a day at the beach SUPER SPECIAL. Travelfluential blogger Angela (also known as Momfluential and Latinafluential) took her daughters and son on a "daycation" to Pacific Edge Hotel.  As expected, they had a blast "watching the tide, soaking up the sun, and relaxing in a chic beachfront day suite."

While her Teenfluentials (see a pattern here) found the beachfront Bungalows to be a chic "mini-paradise," her son made new friends in the sand while Mom relaxed with cocktails! An oceanfront lunch by The Deck brought the family together to share in a delicious meal during their Laguna Beach daycation.

It's a dream that we can DAYCATION year-round in California. Join us any day in the Bungalows! Reserve online or call for availability - 949.281.5711.
