The rooms are spacious, clean and modern, with great views of the Pacific. The grounds are very inviting, with a quiet pool area, as well as paths and plenty of Adirtondack chairs from which to take in the dramatic view of the coast. I'd definitely stay here again.

This hotel was absolutely amazing!! We stayed 3 nights on the 3rd floor and our view was truly majestic, room was very clean, free breakfast was very good from eggs, sausage, waffles, bagels etc... Free wine was handed out everyday from 4-5pm so that was also pleasant. The rates were also very reasonable for a priceless view. We stayed in oceanfront king room and that's the way to go when you stay here
