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 team and staff were very nice and accommodating. However, I noticed that the bathroom still had hair in the sink and the trash had not been emptied. The parking was secure - the top floors are a bit more sparse with some caution signs, but it is still open and available. I wish that I knew to exit with my card instead of returning it at the front desk. I'm not sure if I was charged twice.

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

Nice spacious and clean room, amenities are generally well kept and mostly clean and tidy although being completely full and overrun with children that was hard to achieve, It wasn't very peaceful because of this, and the location is quite isolated from anything interesting.

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 had a great stay at Sonesta Redondo Beach & Marina. The location is fantastic—right by the marina and just a short walk to the Redondo Beach pier, restaurants, and shops. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and had beautiful coastal views. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout our stay, and the overall atmosphere felt relaxed and welcoming. It’s a perfect spot if you want to enjoy the beach while still being close to everything.

The Redondo Beach Sonesta Hotel is a beautiful property, which is directly across from the bay. The hotel is very clean and modern. The hotel staff were very friendly and provided excellent customer service. There is an additional $43 per night fee for valet parking or $40 for self parking so we opted for valet.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

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!

Bathroom sink wouldn’t drain, needs repair.
Shower hot/cold is also in need of repair.
$40 self park in a mostly empty garage is a ripoff, especially considering there’s street parking in the neighborhood nearby that’s free.
Lobby was very nice, but inexplicably smelled of rotten eggs upon returning on Sunday evening; makes it kinda difficult to hang out at the bar/restaurant with guests.

Everything in the room was a 10/10 but the only reason why I’m leaving low star rating was because upon check in the receptionist looked like I was an inconvenience and he looked annoyed. I didn’t really feel like I was wanted there. I asked a couple questions but never got a word response. It was more of a grunt. It kinda messed up the whole vibe for the rest of the night. And also for some reason I couldn’t connect to the WiFi. Maybe next time it would be different?

We had a great stay at this hotel in Redondo Beach. The property is beautiful, very clean, and the location is hard to beat—right next to the ocean with easy access to the beach and surrounding area. The room itself was comfortable and well maintained, and overall the hotel has a really welcoming feel.

The only downside was a lack of basic conveniences. The room had a coffee machine, but there was no water provided to make the coffee. The hotel also did not have a vending machine available, which made it difficult to get water late in the evening. I did call and request complimentary water, and although I was told it would be brought to the room, it never arrived.

Aside from that minor inconvenience, the stay was very enjoyable. With just a little more attention to these small details, this would easily be a top-notch experience.
