For the best of the best, head to the St. Regis Monarch Beach, where there are two parties for you to choose from. For the foodie, there's Stonehill Tavern, for those who are looking for more festivities, they're having a huge bash at the Lobby Lounge. Stonehill Tavern is having a six-course tasting menu and revelers can move the party over to the Lounge where there'll be dancing, cocktails and the final countdown to 2011.

For a four-course dinner and a masked ball, head to the Winery at the District. Not only will there be the countdown festivities, but the R&B group Family Style will be performing before the ball falls in NY. The Winery's transforming itself into a cigar lounge along with having the masquerade, so aficionados can enjoy their smokes and count down alongside their best friends in 2011.

Looking for a rest from the big productions and crowds of other NYE parties should head to Haven Gastropub, where the celebration's less about the party and more about food and friends. Alongside the entire menu, they'll be pouring all the beers that they're known for and the last seating of the night (the others are at 6 and 8 p.m.) will have a traditional toast when the clock hits midnight.

Another year, another huge bash from NYEOC -- Orange County's biggest and most popular celebration for ringing in the New Year. For those who want partying, dancing, multiple djs and dance floors and multiple opportunities for midnight kisses, head to the Hilton for a bash that's unparalleled.

And for the ocean-minded, the Yacht Party sets sail for a night that's full of fun on the high seas. With multiple dance floors and set on a 125' yacht, there's no shortage of space for you get your groove on whether you're admiring the view of the coastline or looking to party hard. Anchors away, because this boat is definitely sailing towards a good time.
