But with nearby wineries, top-tier golf courses, and plenty of sightseeing, those hoping for more adventure will find plenty to do as well. Spot sea lions from the waterfront terraces, or take in the sunset from the rooftop spa at this idyllic California coastal retreat.

5	Coastal Curators — Take advantage of the hotel’s concierge service, offering a range of activities from bike rentals and wine tours, to beach supplies, golf, and more. Be on the lookout for playful otters during a kayaking trip, or take to the waves yourself to surf or paddleboard.
