…reakfast room too. The buffet is not expansive but fine. It is not a cheap hotel to stay in Personally, I found the hotel a bit too trying to hard to be hip and I felt a bit out of place rather than welcoming. Though the staff on the door, reception and so on were all friendly. Maybe it was more the guests then! The decor and styling of the rooms actually felt dated to me, though clearly it is new and part of the design vision. The rooms are very…

…of wealth and opulence. At the end of Rodeo Drive is a large Four Seasons Hotel where people park their expensive cars to be admired and ogled at by tourists. Beaches The three recommendations I have for beaches are: Santa Monica. This town is to the north of Los Angeles and has wide and long beaches. It’s where “Baywatch” was filmed. There are upmarket hotels, stunning shopping arcades, malls and a popular pedestrian area. Manhattan Beach. On th…
…ew room we had booked to a Premier City Harbour View. As we arrived at the hotel around 8.30am off the ship a room was not ready, but was within an hour and so we could get into it after heading out for some breakfast. This was a great bonus and was a nice touch that they tried to accommodate our early arrival. We had left our bags with the concierge and they were taken straight up to the room for us without even having to go back and let them kno…
…ll. This said: If you have young children and are looking for a good value hotel with pool and beach then the Sheraton in Clearwater is worth considering. Alternatively good for conferences. If you are looking for a restful time lying by the pool then stay clear. It has kids at the pool playing noisily from early morning into early evening. They clearly love the pool here but not great if you don’t enjoy that noise or want to be able to enjoy the…

They have fostered the “wild food movement” which is to source as much food from the wild. So it is not even “organic” as this req…
…ing alleys and climbing walls. Princess ships tend to be more like a large hotel and so the facilities will centre more on pools, fitness and spa, bars and lounges, theatre and shopping. For example on the Caribbean Princess there were five swimming pools, over five bars and lounges which had music in the evenings, a Wedding Chapel, large fitness centre and Spa, Movies Under The Stars Screen, Casino, multiple shops and guest facilities like an Int…
…supposed to be an included luxury hotel. It was more a business conference hotel. The next morning’s transfer to our ship, the Regent Seven Seas Navigator, was late and when we finally got on board, the cabins weren’t ready. So, as we set sail, cruising ultra-luxury had not yet seemed very elevated for the price. Attention to Details However, I must admit when I first got into my suite a few hours after boarding, I had seen some promising signs. I…
