Description
Relax in The Cherished Seaside City of Santa Monica, California for Three Days & Two Nights at the Fairmont Miramar Hotel & Bungalows for Two, Including an Underground Artisan Donut Tour (Land Only)
Enjoy a break from the everyday in Santa Monica, where you'll find the calm of the ocean and the buzz of Los Angeles; as both a seaside town and a bustling city, Santa Monica has something for everyone, from beach games to art galleries, nightclubs to theaters and concerts. Wind down at the end of your fun-filled days at the Fairmont Miramar Hotel, a haven that combines historic elegance with modern appointments to provide you with a perfect Southern California experience. The perfect foray into sunny Southern California is this donut tour, which celebrates all things donuts, sunshine, and beachfront fun!
Jutting out into the Pacific Ocean at the intersection of Ocean and Colorado, the Santa Monica Pier offers a variety of entertainment, dining, and shopping experiences, including lively street performers, a historic carousel dating back to 1922, and the thrilling rides of Pacific Park. The pier symbolizes the heart of Santa Monica and is one of the most photographed locations in the world. Nearby are the highlights of Beverly Hills and Hollywood, such as Grauman's Chinese Theater, tours of NBC Studios, the beautiful Sunset Strip, live TV show tapings, and Universal Studios.
Your tour begins at a California institution, Randy's Donuts, which you may recognize from its many appearances across TV, movies, and music videos, specifically its iconic giant donut. After tasting some of their amazing classics, try the amazing, artisanal and fresh-out-of-the-fryer doughnuts at Sidecar Doughnuts! The third location is a slightly unexpected stop, but still quintessentially California - churros! (They also have excellent birria tacos). And the final stop will be a surprise, depending on the group and the weather, but the two selected options are both equally fantastic!
From the exquisitely manicured grounds to the casual elegance of the guestrooms, your senses will be stimulated by an experience of refined luxury at the Fairmont Miramar Hotel. Developed in the 1920s on the site of a 19th-century estate, the Fairmont is a Santa Monica icon that has hosted Hollywood legends including Greta Garbo and Marilyn Monroe. The five-acre urban resort perches on the bluffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean, steps from Santa Monica State Beach. This is the place to embrace easy-going Southern California living, wrap yourself in a plush bathrobe and take in serene views of the verdant grounds or quiet coastal neighborhood while you sip fresh coffee from your Keurig machine.
