The Cosmopolitan Hotel and Restaurant 2660 Calhoun St., San Diego (619) 297-1874 • 27 map on page 65

Book a reservation with history at this charming, restored 10-room inn, located in Old Town State Historic Park. The building harkens back to 1829, when it was a one-story adobe structure called Casa de Bandini. Four decades later, a wooden second story was added, along with a distinctive wraparound porch, and the Casa became The Cosmopolitan Hotel. A recent multi-million dollar renovation has returned the building to its Victorian aesthetic, with no TVs and rooms filled with antiques or replicas of days gone by.

Guests may also enjoy American and Mexican cuisine in the hotel’s quaint dining room or on the outdoor terrace. oldtowncosmopolitan.com

The slower pace, the quiet serenity and the close proximity to some of the area’s finest wineries give this beautiful, family-friendly resort its unmatched charm and appeal. A rustic but elegant property nestled outside of town with 16 tennis courts (pros, lessons, clinics and membership), a Day Spa, fitness center, pools, jacuzzis and nearby golf and hiking trails, sits at the base of the mountains but is still only 30 minutes from San Diego. The modern accommodations are furnished condos, each with a kitchen, living room, patio and fireplace. Whether taking a weekend to relax and get away from it all or a week to stay and play in it all, you’ll leave both refreshed and impressed.
