Fairmont Miramar Hotel and Bungalows

Overlooking the sweeping Santa Monica beach this is a luxurious property in an unrivalled location. Some hotels are all about the location, some pride themselves on providing exceptional service, while others seek to create a luxurious environment. The Fairmont Miramar Hotel & Bungalows, Santa Monica is one of those few properties that combines it all. What we love about this hotel is that it’s elegant but not stuffy; oh, and the views over the Pacific Highway to Santa Monica Beach and the Pacific Ocean are pretty spectacular too. You’ll be just a 10-minute walk or so to the soft sands of the beach, and a little further to the famous Santa Monica Pier. We recommend taking one of the complimentary bikes and making your way along beautiful SoCal beaches. Another unique feature of the Fairmont is the seasonal Beach Club – a private area of Santa Monica Beach reached by open-top Jeep, exclusively for the use of hotel guests which is available each Friday, Saturday and Sunday during June, July and August. As you would probably expect from a hotel of the Fairmont’s standard, providing upscale dining and drinking venues is one of the main focuses here. The FIG Restaurant is one of the region’s most sought after dining spots for breakfast, lunch and dinner, as well as weekend brunch – almost a national institution. You’ll love the wide range of dishes which are created using the freshest seasonal produce. During your stay enjoying a sunset cocktail at The Bungalow is a must, for one evening at least. It’s cool and casual with mismatched furniture, wood decking and a beach hut style design, and the cocktails and light bites are mouth-watering.
