For a weekend of spa pampering, romantic dining and unforgettable ocean vistas, visit Montage Resort & Spa, a new oceanfront resort in Laguna Beach, California. Set on 30 oceanfront acres, the resort is surrounded by sandy beaches and swaying palm trees.
The Montage Resort & Spa is the ultimate playground for both adults and children.
The resort’s three pools include a lap pool, a children’s pool, and the gorgeous mosaic-tiled oceanfront pool. If you prefer the surf and the sand, four beaches are just steps away.
The Mobil Five-Star-rated Montage Spa, which is 20,000 square feet and includes a fitness center and salon service, is a haven for world-weary souls. In addition to ocean- and earth-inspired treatments, the spa offers the Montage’s signature therapies, such as anti-aging facials and moisturizing scalp treatments. True to form, I found the spa’s treatments are executed in a polite and professional manner.
The spacious fitness center sparkles with new equipment; each cardio machine features a TV/DVD unit that promises to make your workout a bit more pleasant. After you’ve built up a good sweat, you can retreat to the locker room, where you’ll find cashmere robes and a stunning plunge pool.
Golf enthusiasts have numerous options. The Oak Creek Golf Club is located within 20 minutes of the resort and features the Saddlebrook Mountains as a beautiful backdrop. The Talega Golf Club has an 18-hole course within 30 minutes of the resort; the Aliso Creek Inn Golf Course features an executive 9-hole course and a 32-par course within 5 minutes of the resort.
