Af hverju fólk elskar þetta
- Immaculate 1950s SoCal meets Mediterranean aesthetic
- Record players and curated vinyl in every room instead of TVs
- Complimentary morning coffee delivered to your door and free adventure gear
Stutt samantekt: It's a stunning, highly-curated boutique experience, but it's still a converted motel on the busy Pacific Coast Highway, so expect some street noise and thin walls.
Farið yfir af @miraandtaylorexplore: My husband and I took a road trip to Hotel Joaquin and the aesthetic was everything. The heated pool was amazing, and the beach is just a two-minute walk away. Skip the pricey day bed, grab a welcome drink, and enjoy the gorgeous coastal vibes. Perfect for a day date!
