Hollywood,
California’s recent upgrades make it a great destination for a California
Beach Holiday! The Hollywood Walk of
Fame, Grauman’s Chinese Theater, and the
Classic Rock Clubs along Sunset Strip highlight Hollywood’s internationally renowned
attractions. Who can miss the famous
50-foot Hollywood
Sign, up in Hollywood Hills?
If you’re hoping to experience the famous California
Beaches, just head west toward Santa
Monica. There’s
a full range of luxury hotels, right on the water; however some offer great
deals in the off-season. The famous Beverly Hills Hotel, known
locally as the Pink
Palace, is elegant,
private, and pricey; however their well-trained staff will cater to your every
need. The rooms are impressive and
special rates are available. We found The Hotel California’s location,
within steps of the Santa Monica Pier, convenient for Beach Activities. The rooms are comfortable, nicely decorated,
and great value for the money. Travel
Guides rate The Hotel California “one of the best places to stay in Santa
Monica.” The hotel offers surfing packages and a full 10 percent discount for guests
arriving with a surfboard.
Santa
Monica’s 3.5 mile stretch of stunning beachfront is “the city’s greatest
natural asset.” Muscle Beach,
Palisades Park, and Chess Park
combine efforts to offer a variety of beach activity. Centrally located, these
world famous Santa Monica
beaches tend to be crowded through most of the season, so enjoy “People
Watching” during your visit.
