California Holiday Places

Santa Monica at Shutters Hotel was a magical experience, wide open beaches at a top class hotel with a real sophisticated feel. LOVED their Coast restaurant! Good areas to explore nearby, don’t miss out on Abbot Kinney road!

Shutters Luxury Hotel Santa Moinica California Holiday

The Montage Hotel in Beverly Hills has to be done once in your life! Fabulous experience and the location is superb! Right on Restaurant Row do get your celeb spotting glasses on..

California Holiday Brunch at the Montage

Ventura (Santa Barbara would have been a better choice)

We loved San Louis Obisbo especially the Paso Robles wine country and we stayed at Apple Farm.

Then we did the long drive down to the Big Sur beaches and FABULOUS ELEPHANT SEALS towardCalifornia Holiday Elephant Seals

Carmel at the Carmel Country Inn and finally via 17 mile drive to stop at

San Francisco at the Zetta.

Then a flight to London on Virgin Atlantic, no Dreamliners on this route as yet, but stunning service none the less! Premium Economy was SO WORTH IT!
