The historic, upscale La Valencia Hotel has held its prime location on the Pacific Ocean in the heart of sunny La Jolla since it was constructed in 1926. The Pink Lady, as it's affectionally called -- a nod to the Pepto pink exterior -- was renovated in 2014, bringing it squarely into this century with an updated Spanish style. Two on-site restaurants, a lively bar, and Spanish-inspired saltwater swimming pool facing the ocean are just part of this unique property's charm. Expect to pay extra for Wi-Fi and breakfast. Villas and rooms facing the pool aren't very private but include great details like dual shower heads and (some) outdoor fireplaces. Small pets are allowed for a fee -- a great perk in a state where pooches are considered part of the family.

A popular ocean-front hotel in La Jolla Cove, Pantai Inn is a beautiful Balinese-themed property right across from the boardwalk. The upper-middle-range hotel has 30 rooms, with atmospheric touches like floral couches, carved headboards, and bamboo chairs. In-room amenities include sea-facing balconies, mini-fridges, microwaves, and fireplaces. The inn's free breakfast earns good reviews from guests, and there's a free laundry service. Guests can also make use of an outdoor space with barbecue grills and a fireplace. But apart from that, there aren't many on-site features. Travelers looking for more features should check out the San Diego Marriott La Jolla, which has an outdoor heated pool, three restaurants, and a bar with an outdoor patio.
