La Valle Coastal Club & Resort Reviews

Belladonna was our on-site coordinator for our wedding in October and she was fabulous. She was one of the reasons we decided to go with our venue. She was very laid-back, easy-going and responsible! We had a great celebration and couldn't have pulled it off without her!

Morgan Run Club and Resort was our top pick of venues in the area. Not only was it affordable, but it holds a place in my heart since my grandfather was a golfer and had brought me there for a memorable time. Bella, the event sales director, was on point with everything. She truly helped the day go as smoothly as possible. The staff were extraordinary and focused on helping us have the best day of our lives. Their provided meals were so fresh and flavorful, and the cake from Eccentric International Chefs was the perfect end to a perfect dinner. With many different packages to choose from, Morgan Run Club and Resort is perfect for any budget.

We thoroughly enjoyed working with Bella and her amazing support staff at Morgan Run. She helped ensure our special day was seamless. Our guest are still commenting on how beautiful enjoyable and the wedding was. We are beyond happy with our decision to go with Morgan Run.

What a great venue. We had our daughters wedding at Morgan Run. Belladonna is the Private Events Director at the club. From the pre planning to the wedding, every small detail was worked out and the wedding could not have been any better. The food was amazing and the food and beverage staff did an excellent job making sure that our guests did not have to wait for a drink, or wait on food.
We used some of the recommendations from Belladonna for the cake, DJ and photographer and were very impressed with all of them. Our DJ kept the party going until the bride and groom sendoff. The wedding pictures turned out phenomenal especially the photos with the golf course in the background.
Most of the people came from out of town so it was very convenient that Morgan Run Club and Resort has hotel rooms that our guests could stay at for the wedding. We did a block of rooms and they gave us a great rate and were easy to work with.

We are so happy we found this venue. Not only was the service amazing but they were reasonably priced and worked with us to make sure our wedding was great. Thank you Morgan Run for making the wedding of my dreams come true.

We had an amazing experience with Morgan Run. Our wedding was a DREAM! Kennedy and Anne were such a great team to work with. They answered all of our (many) questions and were so nice throughout the entire process. We would HIGHLY recommend them.

Morgan Run and Kennedy and her team were wonderful to work with for our wedding. From start to finish they were so helpful and willing to work with us. The ceremony site on the golf course is beautiful and the reception and cocktail hour space is close and spacious. We had 130 guests and everything was perfect. It was reasonable in price for the Rancho Santa Fe area and the plated dinner and all the food was quite tasty as well! We would recommend it for any wedding!

The location is beautiful. I had so many compliments about the beauty of the venue. They have a private patio with a fire pit for your guests, conveniently next to the bar. The inside has plenty of floor space to dance, they also have a side room that I found nice if you need to sneak away. The employees are very kind and attentive to all the guests. Food was delicious. They also have areas on the grounds that are breathtaking, perfect for pictures. Kennedy, the venue coordinator, was amazing. She really made sure that everything was right and made any adjustments right up to the final day. I truly believe you need to see the venue in person to appreciate all its beauty.

The main reason we chose Morgan Run was because of Kennedy!!! Other reasons were for the gorgeous views and landscape for photos and for the event space... the ceremony leads right to the terrace for cocktail hour which connects to the room for the reception. It was perfect! From the first time we came to meet with Kennedy to discuss ideas, to booking our date, to having follow up meetings, and to having lots and lots of e-mail communication-- Kennedy was always so gracious to help and respond!! Everything was set up (and cleaned up!) for us AND the timing was all planned out way in advance so coordinating with our vendors was a breeze. The staff at Morgan Run was amazing and always looking for ways to help us. The food was delicious (and they specialized things just for us!). We didn't want the day to end!!

Morgan run club and resort was an amazing place to have my wedding. Kecia did a great job ensuring everything went perfectly and exactly how I wanted it.
All my guests stayed at the resort and loved it. The kids all loved the pool and a lot of the guests went golfing the day before and day of the wedding. A lot of guests turned it into a week long vacation! I would definitely recommend to everyone getting married.

LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!! ANNA AND MORGAN RUN HELPED GIVE MY HUSBAND AND ME THE WEDDING OF OUR DREAMS. OUR WEDDING WAS 1/29/16 AND IT WAS A DREAM MORE THAN ANYTHING WE COULD OF ASKED FOR. ANNA WILLIAMS WAS OUR COORDINATOR AND SHE WAS A GOD SENT!! SHE MADE WEDDING PLANNING A BREEZE. SHE RETURNED CALLS/EMAILS ASAP. ANSWERED EVERY QUESTION / CONCERN THAT WE HAD. WE HAD OUR CEREMONY ON THE LAWN BY THE " LOVE " TREE , AND THE SETTING WAS BEAUTIFUL, AS THE CEREMONY WAS ENDING, BY CHANCE, IN THE BACKGROUND HOT AIR BALLONS SHOWED UP AS IF IT WAS PART OF THE WEDDING, SO MAGICAL. THE GREENS ITS SELF WAS SO PRETTY WE LOVED IT. WE HAD OUR RECEPTION SPLIT PART IN THE THE BALLROOM AND OUT ON THE PATIO. ALL OF OUR GUEST RAVED AT HOW WONDERFUL OUR WEDDING WAS. THE BEST WEDDING THEY HAD EVER BEEN TO. ANNA STAYED DURING THE WEDDING TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING WENT SMOOTHLY, HANDLING EVERY DETAIL ( AND EVEN SOME UNINVITED GUEST) . SHE EVEN TOOK ALL OF GIFTS AND MONEY BOX FROM OUR GIFT TABLE AND BROUGHT IT TO OUR ROOM TO MAKE SURE OF PRESENTS WERE SAFE. SHE IS AMAZING !! I CANT EXPRESS THAT ANY MORE... WE LOVED HER. MU HUSBAND AND I GOT SO BUSY DURING DINNER SERVICE TALKING WITH ALL OF OUR GUEST THAT WE DIDN'T GET A CHANCE TO EAT OUT DINNER. BUT THE WONDERFUL SERVERS THERE TOOK CARE OF US, AND WHEN AT THE END OF THE NIGHT WE WENT BACK TO OUR HONEYMOON SUITE OUR DINNER WAS THERE WAITING FOR US!!!

ANNA THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS FOR HELPING OUR WEDDING BE AMAZING. SHE REALLY TREATS YOU SO WELL, YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'VE BEEN FRIENDS AND KNOWN HER FOR YEARS.

Morgan Run and Anna were absolutely wonderful, I would highly recommend getting married at this venue! My new husband and I were so glad that we chose Morgan Run for our wedding. Anna, who was our onsite coordinator, was excellent. She helped organize the schedules, contact the vendors, and to make sure everything ran smoothly on the big day. When we first met with Anna, she said one of the goals of the wedding was for the bride and groom to have a relaxing day, and she sure succeeded! We did not have to worry about a thing; we just had to get ready and smile all day for the pictures!
I would also recommend going with the preferred vendors, which made everything easier. We chose the DJ, cake, and decors from the preferred vendor list. I compared the prices of the preferred vendors and non-preferred vendors (I just checked on Yelp), and the prices were similar. The vendors we talked to were all really nice and helpful. Once we picked the vendors and narrowed down the details, Anna did all the coordination and took care of everything.
Morgan Run was also very flexible. Since we decided to get ready at Morgan Run, the venue allowed us to check in our room early (at 9:30am!) so we did not have to rush. It provided us golf carts so we can go out and take pictures. On our wedding day, we also had a banquet manager that took care of us and the bridal party, so we had plenty food and drinks!
One of my bridesmaids, who got married a year ago, said Anna was so good at her job (my friend also hired a wedding coordinator, but my friend was not satisfied with her coordinator). Friends and families complimented on the beautiful ceremony site and the elegantly decorated reception hall. Everyone had a great time!
Overall, we just loved Morgan Run and Anna, and would highly recommend this venue. The location was beautiful, and the packages were competitive as well!

Anna Williams and the staff at the Morgan Run were absolutely amazing!!!! We do not live in California, but we knew that we wanted to get married in San Diego. After visiting several venues, we decided on the Morgan Run after our first meeting with Anna. I was very specific in what I wanted, and Anna made our dream come true. I truly walked away after our wedding day with the biggest smile on my face knowing that all of our guests had a wonderful time and nothing went wrong (thanks to Anna). Every little concern or hiccup that came up was taken care of immediately and I honestly did not worry about ANYTHING. The staff was incredible in making all of our guests feel welcome. It was amazing. I would reccommend this venue to anyone!

We had an amazing location! It was beautiful and everything turned out great! The groom and I were more than happy that we had selected Morgan Run. We found them through the Bridal Bazaar. We had a bunch of people compliment how beautiful it turned out. The communication was decent throughout the time we booked the venue until the big day. There were a few times I was not getting a response back and going a little crazy, but I think this is how all brides feel at some point! :) Thank you so much for the beautiful day! We loved it!

Where do I even begin. AMAZING! I just had my wedding there this past Sunday 9/20/15, and everything was PERFECT and went without a single glitch! I couldn't be any happier with the venue of these girls, simply AMAZING! All of the staff was so wonderful, everyone had such a positive attitude and was willing to help us with anything and everything. I have been working with Ania and Anna over the past few months while planning my wedding, and they just went above and beyond. They helped me with so much they didn't even have to do, just to be kind. I also had my rehearsal dinner there as well, equally amazing. I cannot say enough WONDERFUL things about Morgan Run, Ania and Anna. They made my wedding what it was and it wouldn't have been as spectacular and flawless without them. My family has decided when my brother finally ties the knot we MUST have his there as well, we would be disappointed anywhere else now that we have experienced this. You will not be let down.

If you want the wedding of your dreams Morgan Run will execeed it! Our event coordinator Anna Williams was a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. She created a BEO, or our wedding bible, if you're OCD and like things completely organized she is your lady. If you're not the most organized she's still your lady, as she will lay every detail out on a timeline. Even with last minute changes while the wedding was going on Anna remained poised and would adjust things effortlessly. The whole team at Morgan Run was beyond helpful, polite and professional during the last eight months. They are very prompt to respond and treat you like you are the queen, after all you are you only get this day once. People told me to expect something to go wrong and know it will be OK, that id be the only one to notice...Our wedding played out to perfection without a single mistake. Anna was in contact with all our vendors through the entire process. The day of, it was so awesome to know everything was going well and she would even come check in to make sure we were happy. We were escorted with our photographer and videographer on the golf course to all the best photo spots and even our vendors were raiving they loved this man. I let them know the entire staff was this awesome. It is honestly the perfect venue. I would highly recommend this venue and our event coordinator Anna Williams to any couple wanting a beautiful and stress free wedding.

I can HIGHLY recommend Morgan Run for a wedding weekend. We were so thrilled to have our rehearsal dinner, reception, and brunch, the following morning, all at Morgan Run. We were extremely pleased with the level of service we received, the attentiveness of the staff, and the location of the resort. Ania Krokos, the director of event planning, was the most professional, helpful, and delightful person to work with during our event. She is so great at what she does and makes you feel like you are the only wedding they’re doing that you feel like you’re in the best of hands. Which I might add, is true, that you will be the only wedding on that day. All the service is directed at you and your guests and it makes it so easy to enjoy the day knowing you’re in such good hands. We heard many comments from our guests that this was the best wedding they’ve ever attended and that was all due to the resort. They made it so perfect and beautiful for us and the fact that they have a hotel made it even better for the guests. Everyone could stay right on site and just enjoy the evening. Each event was just as great as the last and each had their own special touch. We used the pool area for the rehearsal dinner and since we had a lot of children attending they enjoyed using the pool while we all ate, drank, and socialized. They decorated the area so perfectly for us. The reception was just amazing and each and every detail was seen to and handled by the Morgan Run staff with oversight from Ania. We couldn’t have asked for anything more, down to providing drinks and apps for our pictures on the golf cart to ensuring we had everything we needed before, during, and after. They took all our gifts and top of the cake to our suite at the end of the evening and had champagne and strawberries out for us to enjoy. The brunch was just the topper to a perfect weekend. We spent the entire morning and afternoon on the patio enjoying our guests and eating the delicious food.

My husband and I worked with Ania Krokos for our June 14, 2014 wedding reception at Morgan Run. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Morgan Run and Ania! The venue is beautiful and the entire night was executed perfectly. Everything was set up exactly how I wanted it and the night flowed seamlessly. The staff is so friendly and makes you feel really special. The food was wonderful, as well.

Ania is pleasant to work with and very sharp. She knows exactly what she is doing and she enjoys it. Ania is easy to get ahold of, which is very important! I also worked with Molly Gort, who is just as awesome!

Everything about working with Morgan Run was great, even early on from the preferred vendor open house to the food tasting with my parents. Ania was able to incorporate cake tasting into the food tasting and we were able to accomplish both at once (and the cake was amazing). Ania made sure that we had a good mix of appetizers and she even honored my husband’s wish to have a special plate of French fries with his wedding dinner!

Some nice touches on the day of: Ania made sure my husband and I had water and appetizers on the golf cart on our way to go take pictures on the golf course, plus she ensured we had starter beverages while decompressing in the waiting room before the big entrance.

More delight: Morgan Run’s hotel rooms were convenient and nicely priced for our guests. Our honeymoon suite was amazing with chocolate-covered strawberries and champagne…AND they even put Martinelli’s in the room for my husband who doesn’t drink. Very thoughtful! Ania also helped organize a really nice private brunch on the patio the next morning with all of the guests who spent the night at the hotel.

I had my perfect dream wedding at Morgan Run!

My husband and I finally tied the knot on feb 9 2014 at morgan run!! We originally had our date set for sept 14 2014 but we had an unexpected surprise when we found out we were expecting our second child, knowing that we had put our deposit down months before for sept I was so worried they would not be able to change out date in such short notice. To my surpirse Ania (wedding coordinator at morgan run) was very willing to work with me and she able to find a date that happened to be our anniversary date which was perfect!. Ania was truly amazing throughout the whole process. She was so helpful with getting all the little details just right and really understood my vision. Ania understands how important even the smallest details are and went above and beyond for us. The whole staff is so friendly and easy to work with, they made the day go so smooth I didnt have to worry about a thing it was amazing all I had to do was relax and enjoy my day. I would 100% recommed this venue to anyone who wants amazing views, and a great coordinator to help make your day exactly the way you want it! Thank you to all who made our day perfect we will never forget it.

My husband and I got married at Morgan Run on August 17, 2013. We worked with Ania, who was FABULOUS. She has great experience in event planning, which highly impressed us. Morgan Run was very flexible in helping us make our day exactly as we wanted - from customizing the menu, to helping us create a sparkler exit. Part of the reason we chose the location was for the overnight accomodations for our guests, which were reasonably priced and very nice. The ceremony location was gorgeous. I love the palm trees in the background of our photos. Another favorite of mine is the outside patio with the string lights and fire pit. The bride and bridesmaids were given a large room to get ready in, and the groomsmen and groom were given another large room. The wedding package was such a great deal, and i highly recommend you contact Ania to start planning your special day! We were so impressed with Morgan Run, and if we were to plan the whole thing over again, I would absolutely book with Morgan Run again. Ania, please feel free to use me as a reference, I would love to give a glowing recommendation for you and the venue!

We worked with Tyler Hasenclever until he moved. The transition to Jeff Hornick was seamless. We met Tyler at a bridal event and went to their bridal open house a few weeks later. It's one thing to remember a girl in a wheelchair. It's something else to remember her name after meeting perhaps thousands of people at bridal shows. We had some unusual ideas for our wedding and Morgan Run always found a way to make it work. Our wedding at Morgan Run was absolutely perfect and the staff couldn't have been more kind and accommodating. Once we pay all our wedding related bills, we're becoming members.

We just got married at Morgan Run a few weekends ago and can't speak highly enough of this venue. Jeff Hornick, who acts as wedding coordinator, was incredibly helpful from day one. He responded well to all of our questions and concerns. We decided to have a Friday night party for all of the out of town guests, and Jeff also helped organize that event.

Everything is so convenient for a wedding...we got married on the lawn, which then leads directly to the back patio for cocktails, and then the doors opened up to the reception. The staff was so friendly and helpful, the food was amazing (I can't stress this enough! So many of our friends and family were blown away by the food), and Jeff was right there the entire event making sure everything ran smoothly.

We had 108 people at our wedding...I think you could do up to 120 very comfortably here but it's not really big enough for a 200 person wedding.

They gave us some golf carts to go shooting our pictures afterwards...the setting is fabulous for photos. They made sure we had some champagne and brought over appetizers for us as well for the photos.

Not sure what else to say...but we absolutely LOVED our experience here.

If there was any precaution it would be about the rooms...we had quite an extensive amount of people staying at the resort (there are 69 rooms) and many of the rooms weren't ready by 4pm...I think they were having a washing machine issue. Other than that though, it was a great spot for family and friends to be for the weekend. The food was delicious but affordable, the pool is great for kids, and once their renovation is done...the seating area will be phenomenal for hang outs. They do have a two night minimum with the special rates they give with the wedding...but I liked that because it forced everyone to spend some quality time together!

The Event Coordinator Jeff was on top of everything and very helpful with arranging for items to be delivered to the site. Would definitely recommend this venue to anyone looking for a professional, and beautifully maintained venue.

It was a wonderful place to have a wedding, great weather and privacy for everyone in attendance. Plenty of room for entertainment. The staff was so accommodating and suggested ideas when we were unsure on some of the activities and timelines of the night.
