“At this sleek beach boutique hotel, opt for a room – or, better still, a suite – with an ocean view. Classic decoration and white furniture give it a colonial feel, and the rooms, with their marble bathrooms and crisp bedlinen, are oases of calm. The Cameo Bar comes into its own after dark as one of Santa Monica’s happening nightspots. There are also two excellent restaurants and, among the latest amenities, poolside play stations.”
