Living up to its name, this charming Spanish-style inn boasts details like hand-painted tiles and ceramic pots filled with greenery. The central courtyard has a kidney-shape hot tub big enough for you and four or five of your closest friends. Bamboo headboards and other nice touches give the rooms a beachy feel. Hosts Estaban Haigler and Emeo Cheung give you the warmest welcome imaginable. One of the prettiest beaches in the city is a five-minute walk away. Pros: friendly owners; charming building; near restaurants. Cons: not directly on beach.
