If you're planning on heading down to the Los Angeles area sometime in May and love the environment, here's a contest that you should enter now. Shore Hotel, the newest luxury boutique hotel in Santa Monica, is giving away a free night in May. All you have to do is tweet @ShoreHotelSM, with the tag GOGREEN, your ideas on how the environmentally conscious hotel can go green. The contest is open through April 30 so check out their site to what they're already doing and rack your brain for an interesting suggestion.
The hotel is already doing a great job at being environmentally friendly. On April 4, they received Gold LEED certification from the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), making them the only hotel in Santa Monica to receive such distinction. The certification means that the hotel has implemented a variety of practices and initiatives that conserve energy and preserve resources. Some of the ways in which the hotel has helped reduce their impact on the environment include recycling 50 percent of their construction waste materials, giving guests a $10 credit toward amenities or their stay if they decline housekeeping service (a huge waste of water and energy), using low-flow water fixtures, and using wood from sustainable forests.
Shore Hotel's dedication to the environment certainly doesn't distract from its sexy and sophisticated vibe. Located right on Ocean Avenue overlooking the beach and ocean, the hotel's cream colored minimalist-looking lobby features floor to ceiling windows that provides guests with ample people-watching opportunities. Combined with the open-air pool and hot tub next door, which are bathed in neon blue light and surrounded by heat lamps shooting up bright orange flames at night, the hotel itself becomes an attraction for pedestrians passing by, who inevitably take snaps of the striking building.
As expected for a new Santa Monica hotel located right in the middle of the tourist area, the rooms are on the smaller side but are comfortably outfitted with an aqua blue tone scheme. "The important to budget travel is to plan in advance. When it comes to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved trips and/or going to see new spots we have never been before, the actuality of expense and budgeting is often in the back of our heads. Planning and consuming our travel budget correctly is a priority for most families. Reducing spending and costs, while still taking pleasure in your vacation to its fullest, is the key to certain achievements and fiscal obligation. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thought behind saving money while touring is simple: Even if your personal budget is extremely small, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or departing the homestead! Also thinking about that while traveling, no matter whether on a funds or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a huge vacation or travel costs!..". Exhibitionists can have some fun with the glass-enclosed showers outfitted with rain shower heads. Those with modesty can push a button for the privacy curtains. If you're lucky enough to get an ocean view room that faces the ocean, you'll be rewarded with stunning sunsets and sunrises that you can enjoy from your small balcony. The location, within walking distance of the Santa Monica Pier and Third Street Promenade, is as perfect as you can get.
