Santa
Monica Casa Del Mar Hotel
Casa Del Mar
*****
Casa Del Mar Hotel: Once considered
Santa Monica's grandest beach
club, this hotel sits right on
the sand, 2 blocks from the Santa Monica
Pier.
Elegant guestrooms, furnished
with chaises and hand-painted armoires, have opulent
baths - most with deep hydrotherapy tubs.
This bastion of luxury, reopened
in 1999 after a major renovation, offers an oceanfront
restaurant, lobby, and pool
This
is the consummate beach club, with an interior
that recreates a 1920s Renaissance Revival-style
resort, rich with elaborate relief work, sculpted
figures throughout the façade, and elegant
public rooms with fruitwood and bronze furnishings,
damask and velvet, and shades of gold, green,
blue, and apricot. This is a sophisticated, entirely
smoke-free hotel.
As befits a beach club,
the hotel’s restaurant,
lounge, and pool are all positioned on the oceanfront.
The casually elegant restaurant features California
cuisine, while the lobby lounge serves lunch and
cocktails in a heavenly setting with 20-foot-high
windows offering unobstructed ocean views. The
fitness center and spa offer massage and other
therapies.
The restaurant and lounge are
delightful, but for even more romantic alfresco
dining, guests can use the phone on the landscaped
garden terrace behind the pool and order light
meals or cocktails (particularly fabulous while
watching the sunset). Dine poolside, or at tables
set up in the garden.
