700 Queensway Dr, Long Beach; 562.435.7676

Soft-open now, with amenities all-systems-go in early July, this $20mil do-over of the Coast Long Beach is a resort w/ private, balconied ocean-view rooms, an exposed-brick bistro focusing on fresh seafood, and a pool w/ island lounge chair cabanas. To celebrate their opening, they've got a $149-for-two-people deal that includes breakfast, three-course dinner, water taxi transportation to downtown Long Beach, a sangria tasting, and free parking -- leaving you more cash for things that'll better help you explore your date's community chest.
