The Portofino Hotel & Yacht Club
Open your balcony door and listen to the calls of seabirds and sea lions from ocean- and channel-side rooms here (earplugs are provided for humbugs); marina-side rooms overlook sailboats and docks. Refreshed interiors adhere to a transitional beachy style—guest rooms are a mix of blues set off by crisp white bed linens. Long-term room and apartment rentals also are available. Compact, well-designed bathrooms are accented in stainless steel, with extra-plush towels and pleasing bath products. The Baleen restaurant has an open, airy tropical vibe and excellent craft cocktails; try the Chef's Table prix-fixe experience for groups of up to 10. The attached lounge offers live music on the weekends and there's an oceanfront heated pool and fitness center with Peloton bikes.
