Great Escape: Cocktails and Cuddling

Spring may be here, but a winter chill still lingers once the sun goes down. This kind of weather is utterly perfect for snuggling up with your honey under a blanket by roaring a fire pit while you gaze at the stars.

Small problem, you say: We don’t have a fire pit. Well, just head on to Papillion Santa Monica at the Loews Santa Monica Beach Hotel. With delectable tapas, Signature Cocktails, cozy blankets, roaring fires—not to mention the twinkling stars above—it’s everything you need for a romantic evening.

Send the tweens to the neighbor’s house for an iCarly marathon and the little ones to the grandparents' for an evening of coddling while you head out for your own evening of cuddling and cocktails.
