Wedding should be a buyout

Liked:This was our fourth visit to this place and we were extremely disappointed. No welcome, no complementary happy hour or cookies. We paid $1300/night for room smaller than a European room with broken door lock. The entire place was blocked for back to back weddings. For someone looking for a romantic getaway it was a nightmare. Bar was reserved for weddings and so were restaurants. No accommodation was offered by management. Please check in advance if they have event there because staff and management will not tell you. For us it was a loss of 3k. Never going there again

Recapture your soul

Liked:There are hotels that try to impress you. Vast lobbies with cathedral ceilings. Marble polished so bright it forgets to feel warm. Places that mistake size for grace. La Playa Hotel remembers older truths. The sort of truths that live in details. The linens crisp as fresh paper beneath your hands. Towels folded with quiet precision. Rooms appointed not to astonish, but to settle you. Everything carries that rare balance: timeless class touched lightly by modern ease. Nothing strains for attention. Nothing feels accidental. You can feel the bones of the place the moment you step inside. Not grand. Not sprawling. Intimate. Nooked and narrow in the best possible way, like an old country club preserved from a gentler age and taught, carefully, how to survive the modern world without surrendering its soul. This is a hotel built for conversation. For slow evenings and signature cocktails. For sitting beside a fire while the fog curls somewhere beyond the windows. For cards spread across a small table between you and the person who has walked longest beside you in life. And somehow the guests understand this instinctively. Voices soften here. Shoulders lower. People arrive weary from the world and seem to remember, after a little while, how to rest again. Of all the pleasures we found in Carmel-by-the-Sea, La Playa was the finest among them. Not merely a place we stayed, but a place we belonged to for a little while. And that is rarer than luxury.
