18 Best Hotels and Resorts in California, From Malibu to Napa Valley
"This hideaway in the hills above Santa Barbara opened in 1918. It still maintains the vibe of an old Hollywood escape, with its architectural fusion of California Craftsman and Spanish Colonial styles. But the accommodations and amenities are swanky modern, with access to electric bikes so you can cruise into town, and a zero-edged freshwater pool with sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean. The 92 bungalow-style rooms are spacious and comfortable, some designed in the pristine white Spanish-style and some in the earthy, woody tones of the Craftsmans. The dining room features a menu full of luxe favorites like Royal Kaluga caviar, locally sourced halibut, and lamb loin from Sonoma."
