Beautiful location. A little busy though. There were two weddings and a huge baby shower the weekend we were there. We had a ground level suite with a patio and we felt like we were in a fishbowl because the events were right off of our patio. Most of the staff were phenomenal and exceptionally good at their jobs. A few of the staff were a little clueless and contradicted their exceptional colleagues. The food was really exceptional. Perhaps the best resort food I have ever experienced.

We very much enjoyed our stay. We left Los Angeles after the Palisades and Eaton fires began and are glad we found this place. The 1bdrm was perfect for our family of 3. The property is right up next to PCH so it can get noisy but it was wonderful to hear the waves at night. We also appreciated the bridge access to the beach, it was convenient. Not much to walk to though but there were stores within a 5min drive away.

Beautifully curated boutique hotel. We were told there would be complementary coffee in the morning and disappointed to find out it was instant packets of Nescafé coffee. We thought there would be fresh brewed based off the vibe. The pastries were great, sourced from a local bakery. Covered parking spaces are tiny, couldn’t get out of our car. Hard to find parking, On top of that it’s $30/night for parking.
