So much to do at the hotel that we need to come back and try some new things! One drawback: checkin and checkout are awful.

It is a real beach town, authentic in a way that most California beach towns just aren't anymore. The staff was absolutely on point and made our stay comfortable and easy from arrival to departure. The grounds were immaculate and thankfully not needlessly opulent. I've really only had an experience even close to this at much more expensive resorts, and to be frank, I like this one more. The restaurants on site were absolutely delicious and priced fair. The park across the street was perfect for warly rise kids before beach time or Belmont park (a five minute walk). Really though the thing I want to really get across is the total vibe of the area...heck, I was on zillow planning our future at one point!

This resort is a nice way to step away from the crowds of tourists at the parks and surrounding areas. However, public furniture is dirty and overused. Prices are typical for California….2x the prices at other tourist destinations in the western states. The pool is nice, but too small. Hot tubs are crowded with kids under 13\. Too many young families here. If you have teens find a different place. The water level at the bay is also low and sandy beach is dirty."
