Everything was nice, but not necessarily exceptional. Location is killer with a lot of great views. Pool and tennis court were nicely maintained with lots of chairs and towels. Rooms are updated except for the \"beachy\" shutter style bathroom doors (more like closet doors) that were cumbersome. But very spacious room! Front desk staff was generally helpful, though not always enthusiastic. Housekeeping was well staffed and seemed to be working diligently throughout the day! Bar and valet very friendly.

One glaring negative is the lack of a \"Marketplace\" or even vending machines. Instead there's a gift shop with just a handful of chip and candy options (but a ton of lackluster merch). The shop kept odd hours during our stay, making getting a snack or water bottle impossible after 8pm (and daytime breaks they took). A wider selection of snacks and beverages (including wine/beer) would go a long way, especially since there are no stores within walking distance. Gotta believe there is an opportunity for increased sales here!

Immediately upon arrival we checked in with receptionist Nadine.
We advised her of our late arrival per an extremely difficult day. We needed the sound of the ocean.
Nadine, set us up in a lovely room with an ocean view on the 3rd floor.
We were provided a bottle of wine, water, and a signed condolence card.
There were tears of joy and thankfulness.
We were able to sit on the balcony, and here the evening and morning sounds of the bay. A seal calling in the distance.
We enjoyed breakfast in the nearby Cafe restaurant.
We will most definitely go back.
Thank you Sonesta Staff.

The staff went above and beyond to make our stay the very best. We went for our anniversary and they made sure we enjoyed our time there. Jose, at the front desk gave us the best and memorable experience! The on-site dining was exceptional, and the room offered beautiful views of the beautiful beach.

The hotel itself was well maintained, the room clean. The staff was really friendly and helpful during check in, ordering room service, check out, etc. The hotel is directly across the street from Seaside Lagoon, a 5-10 minute walk to Redondo beach. We drove to Hermosa beach pier which was maybe a 5 minute drive. We did prefer Hermosa beach to Redondo beach. Would stay again!

This spot was super convenient to us. We were able to park and find everything we needed within walking distance if it wasn't already at the hotel. We didn't spend time in the lagoon/beach right across the street, but a five minute drive down Catalina/Esplanade brought us to Avenue C or E beach access stairs/ramps, there was ample parking.

We went during the World Cup timeframe where USA was playing at SOFI, it was convenient to get to from the hotel. The hotel was adequately staffed for such a busy time and celebrated the WC by having exhibitors and soccer/futbol decor.

No info in the room about the property or area. Hair in the bathroom on floor and shower was not very clean. Hard to find anywhere to fill water bottle. Wet elevator floors because the property won't let guests take pool towels off the pool deck so carpets are getting wet and elevator floors slippery with zero signage.

IF YOU HAVE A LOW VEHICLE be careful pulling into the garage, your car will scrape. This is important for show cars! The rooms were clean but the hotel is outdated. There were holes where old shower rails hung in the shower and wallpaper was slightly pulling in the room and hallway. I have to take stars off for the fact that about 10 mins after we settled in our room, a man was able to unlock our room with his keycard. Thankfully, I had the metal lock on the door so he could only open it a few inches. He was nice and not a weirdo, but still I was very bothered by that. After a day of walking around, when I came back to my room, my own room key wouldn’t work and I was scared someone was in our room. I went to the front desk and got everything straightened out with the manager who gave us free breakfast to make up for the mistake. The hotel is very nice and the hotel is in a nice area, but I’m not sure I will stay there again.

The hotel is very quiet and the room was great the staff was friendly. The reason I only gave 4 stars is because the water pressure in the shower was so low it was dangerous... trying to get rinsed off was next to impossible and the shower floor would get so slippery because there wasn't enough water pressure to wash the soap down the drain...you were better off taking a sponge bath in the sink. The other issue we had was Saturday around lunchtime we went down to the bar and restaurant and the female bartender working was not efficient or attentive..she took our order left never came back my drink..I finally got up and went to the bar after about 10 minutes of waiting and asked for my drink she stated she was running around taking everyones order (there was only my husband and myself and 1 other table with 4 people) I stated to her she forgot and she agreed...we had ordered a ceaser salad and a sandwich which took an excessive amount of time to get. (30-40 minutes)

The staff was friendly and accomodating. Theyve created a a fun, refined & relaxed atmosphere which made it feel less commercial and more personalized. The service we received on top of that was top notch.

Beautiful Property, Great Pool, Clean Rooms and Comfy bed.
Staff at reception are hit & miss. Not super friendly Concierge and Parking attendants wonderful.
Pool area clean and well stocked with towels. Location fantastic and Gym equipment in excellent shape.
We were upgraded at check in (with a charge that we were unaware of until check-out) The check in agent wasn't very clear and soft spoken. The room was beautiful but dark and no ocean view at all - however there was construction or something happening above us. We walked by the room above to see if maybe it was a laundry area or something, but it was a room and there were workers in it- when we asked about moving at reception he argued and said- no - there is no one in that room - and offered to move us to it! We suggested that they might want to check on that - someone was in the room. He didn't care. We chose to go back to the room we had originally booked - partial ocean view and were very happy there- At check-out we had to request a refund of the charge of the upgrade. The agent at checkout was delightful.

I’m very disappointed with the room we were assigned. Although the prices here start at $260, I paid $400 expecting a significantly better experience. Instead, the view is very unpleasant and does not match the price or expectations.

There is also active construction directly in front of the room, which was not mentioned anywhere at the time of booking. This significantly affects the overall experience and comfort of our stay.
At this price range ($400 per night), there are many much better options available with significantly better views and overall quality. Unfortunately, I will not be choosing this hotel again in the future.
When I was at the pool, I noticed that the view from there is actually much better than from our room. It might be helpful to clearly indicate that pool view rooms offer a better view at a lower price when guests are choosing between different options.

When I pay for an ocean view, I expect a full ocean view. Instead, I was given a partial ocean view, which is quite disappointing.
That’s why I’m frustrated with the room assignment, especially considering the price I paid and the expectations set at the time of booking.

The hotel itself is in a great location. 4-5min drive away from some good eats. But regarding the property itself, the gym is very small. I don’t expect hotel gyms to be big or even adequate for a great workout but if there’s 3 people in there, it’s full. The cardio room is better and has around 8 machines. The shower in my room was probably one of the worst showers I’ve ever had in a hotel. Barely any water pressure, I had to literally bend down directly below the shower head to wash properly. I found a dirty cup behind the curtain that wasn’t picked up from the previous guest that used the room. For around $250 a night, I expected a better room but the views and location are nice

The staff at Sonesta was fantastic! Everyone was friendly and welcoming and even though we were a bit early, our room was ready and we were able to check in and relax. When it was time for us to leave, we had a late flight, but we were able to check our bags with the valet/concierge and walk around the pier and boardwalk until it was time to go to the airport.

Our room was comfortable and nicely updated. Plenty of outlets and charging ports without having to crawl behind or underneath furniture (I know...sounds silly, but now that absolutely everything needs a charger, it's a big deal!)

The lobby and bar always had good energy and friendly people. At night we enjoyed sitting on the little balcony and listening to the seals in the harbor. The location is convenient to get anywhere, but enough off the piers to be peaceful and quiet.

Several airlines must have contracts for rooms for their staff for layovers. There was always a steady stream of pilots and flight crews coming and going. Trust where the professionals go...

The only part that wasn't 5 stars was the pool. It seems a bit overlooked and neglected. It is on the second floor, so it can't be a huge pool (water is too heavy for that), but there could be more done to make the very large, open concrete deck more inviting.

All in all, definitely a good stay.

We stayed five nights in February at the Sonesta Redondo Beach & Marina in an Ocean View double queen room and had an amazing experience. Our balcony overlooked the marina and ocean, and since we visited during breeding season, we could actually hear humpback whales at night — such a rare and unforgettable bonus!

The hotel is beautiful, clean, and very well maintained. It offers a bar and restaurant, fitness center, paid laundry room, gift shop, plus a heated outdoor pool and hot tub. The pool area looked fairly basic but was clean and felt safe. Every staff member we encountered was friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. The service truly felt premium — you get what you pay for.

Parking is not included ($40/night self-park or $43/night valet). For the small price difference, valet was an easy choice and made everything seamless.

The location is fantastic — just a short walk to the marina and beach. We loved exploring Redondo Beach and even rented pedal boats, which was affordable and so much fun. It was the perfect home base for exploring the LA coastline while staying conveniently close to the airport.

A few minor notes: the bathroom was slightly dated (but clean!), evenings can be lively due to events and outdoor dining (it was ok for us but beware light/early sleepers), and our 5th-floor room had quite a long walk from the elevator — worth it for the view, but something to consider if mobility is a concern.

Highly recommend — we would absolutely stay again!
