We are currently at VEA hotel for a friends getaway. The location has beautiful views of the ocean. Stunning sunsets! We had an issue our first night with noise from other guests in the hallway and around our room, and Brian Bartells at the front desk was quick to help find us a different room. We moved to the other room later that afternoon and it was better than our first room! A patio with loungers and chairs and amazing views. Thank you Brian! We did encounter issues with the a/c in this room, but they are working on getting that fixed today. All of the staff we have encountered during our stay so far have been so lovely. Everyone working around the pool are great at anticipating and helping with anything we need. Love not having to search for someone to order a drink or food, or help with umbrellas! Great stay!

I'm a loyal Marriott Bonvoy member who has collected well over a million points over the years. I love the brand and even have a Bonvoy credit card. The property is lovely. The staff EXCEPTIONAL. I couldn't believe how nice, helpful and welcoming every employee was from the front desk at check in to the valet, bell men, bar, restaurant staff and housekeeping. It really made our stay better. Definitely the biggest asset to this "resort." Our hotel room was showing signs of wear and tear. Wallpaper coming up in the bathroom and an older mattress. And there is a moving wall in the bedroom that exposes the shower. That design confused both me and my spouse. Very odd choice of design, unless it was to allow sunlight into the bathroom. The room was extremely clean, as was the bathroom. The bed is showing age and the pillows were absolutely the WORST pillows I've ever had to put my head down on. Even Marriotts more affordable brands have better pillows. And then there is the noise. We were on the 9th floor of a 10 story building. I couldn't imagine booking a weekend of spa treatments only to deal with the loudest HVAC system I've ever heard. All night there was a loud droning sound coming from the exhaust fans on the first floor and it prevented us from sleeping through the night. The noise, along with the pillows are the reason for the 3 stars. VEA Resort and Spa has a very hight price point. And for that, everything at the hotel should be on par with that price point. The employees meet that price point, but the room, mattress and HVAC noise did not. Get rid of the sliding glass doors and install soundproof glass! The food at the restaurant was fantastic. Waygu beef burger was perfectly cooked, some of the best fries I've ever had. The Eggs Benedict was also very good with a delicious hollandaise sauce. Coffee was also top notch. Because of the noise, I wouldn't stay here again. I can spend just as much, if not more, at other resorts in Newport Beach and get a better nights sleep.
