"Had a great stay for our anniversary. Restaurant was great and all the staff we had interactions with were lovely. Valet service was a huge plus. The grounds and views are beautiful. Beds and pillows comfortable too. Only negative we could come up with is there is some road noise if you're closer to the front however if never bothered our sleep and the views made up for it."

"Our room is located at lower level. Our upstairs neighbors had constantly walked around in the room until 2 AM. The floor is too thin to isolate the noise. We could not sleep well."

"The staff was fabulous! I liked the ocean view from our room, the 1 block walk to the beach and the super convenient shuttle up the hill to the shops and restaurants. Didn’t need a shuttle back to the hotel, the walk downhill being so pleasant. It was very close to the 17-mile drive. There is parking onsite. The room was very clean."
