In 2023, the city of Carlsbad, just north of San Diego, launched an “All Paws Lead to Carlsbad” tourism initiative to encourage pet friendly travel to the Southern California beach town. Although the campaign officially ended in May, Carlsbad is always a dog friendly town that welcomes woofers of all breeds and sizes to many of its shops, restaurant patios, and hotels.

The Parlour where afternoon tea is served in the pink, ridged roof cottage at Cambridge Beaches Resort & Spa dates back 400 years. This year, the resort, Bermuda’s original cottage colony, celebrates its 100th anniversary as a hotel. But while celebrating its history and continuing traditions (such as its repeat visitors’ plaque including one California couple in residence over 100 times, earning them their own key to the cottage which has been renamed for them), the resort is also breaking out new developments.
