The Island Hotel Newport Beach is everything the competition wishes it could be: luxurious, leisurely, and always lively.
EXPERIENCE
The Island Hotel Newport Beach doesn't reinvent the wheel, but it does improve upon it. The difference between this luxury resort and some lesser accommodations is the difference between the wheels on your Porsche and the wheels on your kid's skateboard.
There are 295 rooms here, as well as 83 suites. Each has a step-out balcony or furnished patio, and most offer stunning views of the Pacific Ocean. Decor is SoCal chic, warm but not rustic, while materials are pure luxe. Think Egyptian cotton and goosedown.
Let the pampering continue at the Spa at Island Hotel, where a unique selection of signature rituals takes center stage, surrounded by comprehensive supporting cast of traditional treatments. The on-site fitness center is second to none, with heated pool, lighted tennis courts, and massive cardio room.
You might need it, given the Palm Terrace Restaurant's delectable comfort food menu items.
Newport Beach is in southern California, between Los Angeles and San Diego. Spectacular shops and restaurants line the Newport Pier, while multimillion dollar homes dot the harbor. The Island Hotel Newport Beach is about a half-hour drive from John Wayne Airport.
