Channel Road Inn, A Four Sisters Inn, Santa Monica

My husband and I spent our first married night and our first anniversary here. It is the kind of place you can make a tradition of as the staff will remember you and treat you like an old friend when you're there. The rooms are beautiful, airy, beach-elegant. The food is AMAZING. They have bikes to borrow so you can head across the street to the bike path on the beach. Don't forget to have a dinner at Cafe Delfini down the street either...A great, convenient area/jumping off place to Santa Monica, Venice Beach, the Palisades, Montana, etc..You could get away without renting a car once you're there. Time here is a true get-a-way.
