Those cookies though.

O.C. superfans rejoice — this spot is a quick drive from *that* Newport Beach. California, here we come.

Perfect beach-goer practicality right on the PCH. Capitalize on a Cappy's breakfast with a TidePoole's sandwich for lunch, both are flip-flop distance.

Palm trees and pool: that’s all we need. Got ’em.

Pop into the Panini Lounge for Happy Hour (5pm-7pm) or to catch the game on 55" HDTVs.

24/7 BridgeMart has your back when you forget supplies and want to enjoy the full kitchen.

Located within walking distance of Doheny State Beach and Dana Point Harbor.

Originally opened as ‘The Airporter’ (for obvious reasons) way back in 1969. And still going strong today.

Beachy color palette adds oceanside relaxation even when you’re indoors.

Relax, early riser. Breakfast’s included.

Hey hey, free breakfast every day.
