“A grand hotel occupying a breathtaking clifftop position just outside San Francisco. Smart rooms are simply styled paying homage to the wonderful views offered from the picture windows. With all the luxury trimmings and more (there are two championship golf courses), this is an indulgent stay.”

Ritz Carlton Half Moon Bay

This elegant resort, set on a bluff overlooking the jagged Pacific coast, boasts not one, but two 18-hole championship golf courses. The San Francisco Bay Area's only oceanfront resort, it has the feel of a seaside lodge, but on a grand scale. On most nights, a bagpiper is on hand to serenade the setting sun.
