Pacific Palisades Hotel

Various views in and around Pacific Palisades.

Walkways to the Beach

Have the bartender make you a pina colada and you will get it in a fresh coconut right from the tree!

View of Hotel from the Water

You can rent a hammock and take a nap under the covered areas next to the beach.

On the Way to the Pool

The grounds of the hotel are kept in incredible condition.

When not in the Ocean Try the Pool

The pool is so refreshing! Workmen clean it every morning at 5:30am and its about 70F. I love having a lunch of fresh Curvina served poolside. The fish was caught in the ocean about 4 hours before it was served!

    Ken, did you go into the chapel where Romero was shot? I also spent a lot time Suchitoto and a few agricutural cooperatives near a volacano called Gazapa. Why did you travel to El Salvador? Cheers, Ken

    There are many "Salvadruco's" here in my area, and many are friends of mine. You will find the Papuseria trucks here in VA as well. ~
