Cabanas at the Maritime Hotel

Broad, blue-striped benches and floral wallpaper to remind you you're on a festive island. Big space can really absorb the bodies, making for one of the looser doors in the Meatpacking. There's a north and a south, just like in the Civil War. Sunroof over the heated north section for winter action, two sides connect come summer. Hollywood bold names and general body obsessiveness make for an L.A. feel. Drinks are dear, of course, but cheaper than a Caribbean cruise.
