Loews Santa Monica Beach Hotel

Dependable and reliably upscale without being pretentious, the Loews hotel brand always performs well in popular markets. Parked on Santa Monica Beach next to the Pacific Park Amusement Park, the Loews Santa Monica is no exception. The contemporary interior design couldn't say "Southern California" more. The floor-to-ceiling windows in the double-story foyer showcase every inch of beach and ray of sun. The 347 recently renovated rooms and suites are decorated in milky white and tan tones with wave-patterned carpets and sky-blue accent cushions. The views change between the ocean and palm trees and the fourth-floor pool terrace and fire pits.

Have a light meal next to one of those 13 oceanfront fire pits, or take advantage of a more elegant al fresco opportunity on the terrace of Ocean & Vine, the celebrated coastal California cuisine restaurant. The daily resort charge includes beach and pool facilities, so make sure to let the pool concierge pamper you with fruit smoothies and spray you with Evian mist as often as you need.
