With gorgeous beaches and mountains, it has several points of interest and plenty to do. Have breakfast at the Ballard Inn & Restaurant, a romantic bed and breakfast that serves Asian-infused new French cuisine using local produce.

Then enjoy a massage at the Bacara Resort, which has an extraordinary spa, golf course and beautiful facilities, including 26 fullservice poolside private cabanas and three swimming pools with spectacular views overlooking the ocean. Have lunch at Trattoria Grappolo in the hills of Santa Barbara which is perfect for great Tuscan fare and mountain scenery. A secret favorite oasis, the restaurant features local wines and a very authentic menu.

In the evening, dine at Downey’s Restaurant, where a husband and wife team serves excellent Californian French cuisine. Your driver can escort you back to The Beverly Hills Hotel, but if you prefer, a helicopter can be arranged to meet you at Santa Barbara for a tour along California’s coast. From the sky you will experience breathtaking and unique views of the Californian coastline as you return to the hotel.

Day 1

Be greeted at the airport by the hotel’s chauffeur who will take you to The Ivy or Spago for lunch.

Here you’ll meet your personal stylist / shopper (Aly with Style Chic is a favorite), who will introduce you to all the best boutiques on Rodeo, Melrose and Robertson, help you get ready for the evening and have a photographer on call to capture all the special moments. Depending on the time of year, you could be treated to a VIP Grammy Package, with access to the afterparty, or a VIP box at the Hollywood Bowl including a specially prepared tasting menu by the restaurant’s executive chef Guillaume Burlion. To wind down a perfect day, have your chauffeur drive you to Bar 1200, which, after all these years, still retains its mystique without being pretentious.

Day 2

After a night out, enjoy a superb breakfast in bed. Relax by the villa pool in a private cabana before enjoying a scenic drive in a Bentley or another luxury vehicle. For an exhilarating alternative, try the helicopter ride to Malibu, where you can enjoy a private tour of the Rosenthal Winery and perhaps sample some of the produce. In the afternoon, return to the hotel to unwind with customized spa treatments either in your suite or at the spa. In the evening dine at one of Los Angeles’s top restaurants or perhaps book box seats at Dodger Stadium followed by VIP bottle and table service at a few of L.A.’s hottest night spots before having the chauffeur return you to the hotel.

CHARLES HAWKINS

Start your day with a great breakfast in The Blvd restaurant at the Beverly Wilshire, where Pepé will make you a personalized smoothie to get your day going in the right direction.

After breakfast, walk around Beverly Hills and witness the city come alive as the shops and galleries open, and the agents and attorneys emerge from their favorite coffee spots. Take a drive to Santa Monica and Malibu and see the new Santa Monica Place with a stroll up Third Street Promenade for some shopping. Then make your way to Zuma Beach in Malibu for a true California experience. On your way back from Malibu, take Sunset Boulevard all the way into West Hollywood to the area known as Sunset Plaza, where you’ll lunch at one of the many al fresco eateries. Head back to the Beverly Wilshire for your spa treatments: Gillian will administer the most amazing facial ever before your 90-minute massage, which will leave you feeling like a new person. After your day of sunshine, shops, sand and spa, unwind in your luxurious room before having sommelier extraordinaire Dana Farner suggest her favorite wine of the moment at Sidebar. Dine at Cut by Wolfgang Puck to finish off just one amazing day in Beverly Hills”.
