Lately I’ve been feeling the same weird magnetic pull that seems to wash over me at least once a year — I’m longing for California sunshine (not to be confused with island sunshine because our weather is a little harsher and a whole lot stickier in the middle of the Pacific) and the salty air of the PCH. Luckily, we’ve got our sights set on a trip this Summer and I’ve already bookmarked the coolest boutique hotel.

Enter: The Surfrider Malibu. One part classic California surf culture mixed with equal parts modern hospitality design and a 1950s “surf shack” sensibility. It’s ticking all the boxes for me! With unique touches woven throughout the guest rooms and grounds (hand-carved surf boards, Parachute Home linens on all beds, Grown Alchemist products in all of the en-suite bathrooms, and Cali cool furniture designed by Croft House), this is one hideaway I may never want to leave.
