Make the Most of Your Costa Mesa Stay

Where culture meets California cool

Costa Mesa has evolved from agricultural roots into Orange County's cultural anchor, where the Segerstrom Center for the Arts presents Broadway productions in venues designed by Cesar Pelli. South Coast Plaza stands as the West Coast's largest luxury shopping destination, featuring high-end boutiques alongside Michelin-starred restaurants like Knife Pleat. Nearby, Isamu Noguchi's California Scenario offers a serene 1.6-acre sculpture garden.

Business and lifestyle balance

The city's dual personality shines in the SoBeCa district, where The LAB Anti-Mall and The CAMP occupy converted industrial spaces with independent retailers and artisanal dining. This creative enclave contrasts with the polished South Coast Metro area, where corporate offices and luxury hotels serve business travelers. The culinary landscape spans from intimate omakase at Hana re to casual gastropubs along the 17th Street corridor.

Strategic coastal access

John Wayne Airport sits just 4 miles away, while Newport Beach's harbor and Balboa Peninsula lie minutes from your hotel. The city's central location provides quick access to Laguna Beach's galleries, Disneyland® Resort, and Catalina Island via Newport Beach ferry. Book accommodations in South Coast Metro to position yourself at the intersection of California's beach culture and metropolitan sophistication.
