California is perhaps most famous for its spectacular coastline, dotted with trendy beach towns, superb surf spots and vast stretches of wilderness. Book a room at a cosy B&B or chic seaside property in Malibu, Santa Barbara, Carmel-by-the-Sea or Laguna Beach to bask in that Californian sunshine. Nearby Santa Catalina Island offers excellent watersports, whilst Big Sur, south of Monterey, is the perfect place to get lost amidst towering redwoods, craggy cliffs or the thundering waterfalls of Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park.
For the ultimate escape, look towards the enormous Yosemite National Park, Death Valley National Park or the Sequoia National Forest. Palm Springs, on the other hand, is a retro gateway to the wonders of the desert — and boasts some striking small spa hotels. For cooler climes, check out the ski hotels and resorts around Lake Tahoe, Heavenly and the Olympic Valley.
This is also a state for wine lovers. Napa Valley is one of the best-known wine regions in the world, with a number of appealing towns for romantic getaways or trips with friends. Napa, old-fashioned Calistoga, and pretty St Helena are good places to start. Serious foodies should consider Healdsburg or Yountville, which has more Michelin stars than any other town in the USA.
Hugely popular throughout the year, the best places to stay in California offer something fantastic for everyone!
