Last month, after $25m in renovations, L’Auberge Del Mar opened in California. This coastal resort brings with it a new concept in Southern California hospitality, with an elegant look reminiscent of a high-end private estate. The renowned 120-room historic seaside has undergone extensive upgrades and is now home to Bleu Bar, a pool deck, a 4,500 sq. ft. spa, rooms with 42″ plasma TVs and the Waterfall Terrace with its own 14-foot illuminated waterfall.
