Stretching along seven and a half miles of pristine Pacific coastline, the cliffside community of Laguna Beach offers up breathtaking views, sandy beaches, and world-class waves, attracting artists and athletes alike since the 1920s.Discover it for yourself with this week's Escape to Pacific Edge Hotel, where you'll get a one-night stay for two, Sundays through Thursdays ($119) or Fridays or Saturdays ($157) in a Village Room. Or, opt for a one-night stay for two, Sundays through Thursdays ($209) or Fridays or Saturdays ($253) in a Beachfront Room.All four options are valid between September 2 and December 31, and each includes a $20 food and beverage credit to The Deck, the hotel's on-site eatery.Part of the jubilant Joie de Vivre family of boutique hotels, Pacific Edge gives you a reason to celebrate. Along with a wet bar and pillow menu, both Village and Beachfront rooms have colorfully painted walls and king or queen beds with crisp white bedding. They're also equipped with mini-fridges and complimentary Wi-Fi, and the Beachfront rooms offer unobstructed views of the Pacific, plus a breezy balcony with comfy chairs to enjoy them on.It's a shame the rooms are so inviting; with all of the outdoor activities available in this enchanting enclave, you probably won't spend much time in yours. Spend the day soaking up the sun on a cushy daybed in the poolside area, where you'll have a Jacuzzi and two heated pools to plunge into. Or, head to the beach—Sleepy Hollow is just steps away—where complimentary lounge chairs, umbrellas, and beach towels await.If you feel inspired, arrange a surfing or paddleboard lesson with a seasoned pro, or squeeze in a workout at Laguna Health Club (guests get complimentary access). Then, stroll down to Laguna Village and rub elbows with locals as you peruse shops and cafes.Catch the complimentary Laguna Beach trolley back to the hotel just in time for a sunset cocktail before hitting The Deck for a casual dinner. Feast on fresh, California fare like surf 'n' turf kebabs, mahi tacos, and lobster thermidor.After a day living it up like a local with this week's Escape, you'll crash harder than the waves outside your window.
