Casa del Mar ReviewIn a former 1920s Renaissance Revival beach club, this Art Deco stunner is a real dream of a resort hotel, equal in every respect to its sister resort, Shutters, located across the street . Which one you prefer depends on your personal sense of style. While Shutters is outfitted like a chic East Coast beach house, this impeccable, villa-like structure radiates period glamour. The building's U shape awards ocean views to most of the guest rooms, which have summery, European-inspired decor plus abundant luxuries that include sumptuously dressed beds and big, Italian-marble bathrooms. Rooms are laid out for relaxation, not business, so travelers with work on their minds should stay elsewhere. Downstairs is a big, elegant living room with ocean views, a stylish veranda lounge, and the Catch Restaurant, which offers a gorgeous oceanfront setting and a varied menu of small plates, salads, sushi and fish-centric entrees.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
