A wonderful and relaxing place to stay. We took advantage of the pool, beach shuttle, restaurant and location. The location is wonderful to explore the amazing Cali beach towns. The restaurant exceeded all expectations not only with unique delish meals, but also in price and service. My only con is the excessive parking rate to stay here. It should be included.

The grounds were beautifully maintained. We watched staff meticulously clean the glass around the pool, wiped down railings all the way to the ground. They need a raise ! Every staff we came in contact with was knowledgeable and the training shows. We were greeted by the gift shop cashier, the front desk clerk came around to hand me my room keys. These little things did not go unnoticed. Mya was a great waitress to us! She made our night with being so fun and kind to our party.

Parking is a rip off, $45 a day Extra and you have to park across the street, which you find out After you pay. Staff was rude when I tried to address the lack of close parking for what I paid, and also when I requested late check out. Hotel is nice and clean and views of the ocean cannot be beat. However I cannot recommend this property and will not be back.
