Hotel Information: Visually unlike other hotels in the town, the distinctive glass-clad exterior is an architectural collage of triangles. This modern feel continues in the marble lobby, with its vividly colored table lamps in freeform shapes, and sweeping tile-and-chrome reception desk. Since opening in 1989, the hotel has been a sun-seeker’s haven, and vacationers and executives lap up the beachfront location.

Amenity highlights: The hotel’s private sandy beach, pier, and beach restaurant are open from April through mid-autumn, and beach access from the guestrooms avoids the lobby. Guests have discounted access to the health club, with a 16-foot splash pool, spa tub, sauna, steam room, and fitness equipment. Wireless Internet access (surcharge) is available throughout the public areas and even on the beach.

Insider tip: Juan-les-Pin’s annual summer jazz festival takes place at the Gould Pine Grove, just one block from the hotel. Less known are the handprints of 53 jazz legends set into the sidewalk surrounding the venue. Jazz fans can pay homage to stars such as Ray Charles and Miles Davis at this Hollywood Boulevard–style tribute.
