Channel Road Inn Bed and Breakfast

Frommer's Review

The innkeeper has used her eye for design to outfit this beautiful 1910 Colonial Revival house in gracious period style. The individually appointed rooms range from "shabby chic" to antique, and all have top-quality textiles and linens, VCRs, and spacious, nicely renovated bathrooms. Some have four-poster beds covered with hand-sewn Amish quilts; others have fireplaces, and still others feature whirlpool tubs. Don't expect much from the promise of an ocean view, however; you'll overlook a busy street, wires, and rooftops for your sliver of blue. The outdoor areas include a quiet rose garden and private hillside hot tub on the upper lawn. Dominated by an impressive Batchelder tile fireplace, the impeccably decorated living room makes an ideal place to curl up with a book. If you'd rather head outside, the staff will provide bicycles, beach chairs, and towels for your use -- the beach is a short walk away. I prefer Channel Road's sister property, the Inn at Playa del Rey ; still, this is a beautiful, comfortable, and well-run B&B in a terrific location for beach lovers.
