Accommodations
Reimagined Rooms

Following a full makeover of the hotel, our rooms have been elevated with distinctive seaside charm inspired by the bliss of Newport Beach. Peaceful color palettes and modern, coastal-chic furnishings welcome you into a relaxed retreat. Still, it’s the little things that complete the experience, like a handwritten note, a freshly baked cookie, or a cold glass of orange juice delivered to your room every morning.

BIKES & BEACH TOYS
All the Good Stuff

Explore The Peninsula in true SoCal style.
We offer paddle boards, boogie boards, surfboards, folding chairs, and beach umbrellas, while our fleet of bikes allows guests to get around Newport with style and ease. Kick back, cruise through, and experience one of Orange County’s favorite beach towns at its best.
