The Suites at Grande Colonial La Jolla

"For stays of one week or more, the Grande Colonial's intimate Little Hotel by the Sea and Garden Terrace offer apartment-like suites with living rooms, kitchens, and a separate entrance"

"The suites in the Garden Terrace and the Little Hotel come with kitchens and are closest to the water, but if it's prime Pacific views you're after, ask for an ocean-facing room on the upper floors of the main hotel"

"The hotel was built in 1913 and expanded and redesigned in the mid-1920s; a newer addition that opened in 2007 features 18 suites, all with full kitchens and fireplaces and stocked with luxury bath products and snack baskets"

"The 1913 building houses luxury suites, while a 1926 building contains the main hotel"

"The cosy but elegant rooms have boutique furnishings and free wi-fi, and there’s a handful of larger suites, and excellent package deals"

"Suites have wooden floors, cute kitchenettes, and cozy fireplaces"

"Breaking for the beach might not be so easy once you find out how the suites’ high ceilings, in-room fireplaces and natural light give welcoming vibes to these spacious rooms"

"Room 140 is a lavish two-bedroom suite with a kitchen, balcony and garden and ocean vistas"
