* "Eat, drink, and be merry--of tomorrow take no heed." The words inscribed on a beam at Shoalwater Restaurant in the Shelburne Inn are almost as delicious to contemplate as the aromas-- the cinnamon scent of baked goods destined for the inn's renowned breakfast, or dinner offerings like seafood chowder and baked oysters. For a century, the Shelburne has drawn visitors to the small beach town of Seaview, a short walk from the expansive sands of the Long Beach Peninsula. Rooms, up stairwells and charmingly tucked away, have a timeless appeal with antique armoires, floral decor, and claw-foot tubs. Some offer garden views, others overlook the street.
ESSENTIALS: Thirteen rooms and two suites. From $109. 4415 Pacific Way; (800) 466-1896 or www.theshelburneinn.com. Shoalwater Restaurant: lunch, dinner; (360) 642-4142.
