Montage Laguna Beach is perfect for a summer getaway where you can enjoy snorkeling, kayaking, surfing and beach volleyball.

Although casual in its demeanor, there’s nothing casual about the food served up by Chef Casey Overton and his award-winning team. The signature Coffee-Crusted New York Strip with Fourme d’ Ambert Blue Cheese, Wild Arugula, and Bourbon- Caramel is one of my all-time favorite dishes, while the Braised Lamb Sugo just melts magnificently in the mouth.

ReneePiane.com B Portofino Pretty Portofino Beverly Hills is an elite tanning experience catering to a high profile and A-list celebrity clientele, beautiful moms, and executives on the go. The beauty studio has designed a custom menu of services to accommodate your every lifestyle, eliminating the inconveniences of conventional tanning to leave you feeling fabulous and looking beautifully bronzed!

The organic body contouring and skin fitness treatment uses a combination of dual rollers and gentle suction to create a skinfold, treating the top skin and subcutaneous connective tissue. The treatment helps make your skin look smoother, healthier, and naturally beautiful. PortofinoBeverlyHills.com
