1. A Forbes Four Star resort perched on a bluff 150 feet above the Pacific, this Ritz-Carlton has been pulling off "effortlessly fancy" for years and a recent $50 million renovation made it even harder to leave. Freshly redesigned rooms in sage and sky blue, a serene spa, two pools, and ocean views that do most of the heavy lifting. The lobby bar draws a reliable mix of LA weekenders, conference golfers, and families who've clearly done this before.
