    The room was clean and nice, but not as pictured. The sofa was actually a small ottoman, so it didn’t sleep 3 as represented. They did send up a complimentary cot, but that clutters the room and isn’t the same. The front desk was kind and helpful, and the pool was great. The dining staff, however, was terrible. The barista didn’t know how to make an americano, took 10 minutes to fill a black coffee, and only had whole milk. We ate dinner in the restaurant, and I’m a vegan, so I asked the server for a recommendation. He suggested a pasta, to which I asked if they were made with egg or prepped with butter. “Yeah, they’re made with egg and the cooks start each dish with butter. Is that not ok?” I asked him to just ask the chef for a recommendation, as it seemed he wasn’t familiar with the menu or what a vegan is. He came back with notes from the chef, recommending the steak with no butter or the branzino with no cheese. (!!!) I explained again that vegans don’t eat meat, fish, egg, or dairy. In SoCal, every hotel and restaurant has SOME option for a vegan dish, and this bewildered response was disappointing. We were on vacation with friends, so I ended up ordering takeout and eating it at the table while the other 7 people in our party ate the restaurant’s food. (I also got my DoorDash quicker than they got their meals.)

    Beautiful rooms and property. Great location. The complimentary shuttle service was really helpful, taking us to anywhere within 5 miles which made it really easy to get to the beach and town.

    The only negative thing was the room wasn't ready at check-in time. We had to wait 2 hours.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Definitely recommend. The only down fall was the view of the parking lot from our balcony. Besides that everything else was great.

    Staff was amazing. Hotel rooms were nice and cleaned. Beds were more on the not so comfy side (too worn out). Restaurant on site TERRIBLE! My husband and 3kids walked in for dinner. They said wait was 10-15 min. Ok fine, we waited, about 1 hour & there were only 2-3 tables with customers ( inside) plus more in outside patio bar. My point is we waited for a while past 9pm & they couldn’t sit us down. We walked out dissatisfied! Terrible customer service!!! We ended up ordering room service because it was too late to head out somewhere.

    Lovely property, just renovated. (Some of the renovation smell has not fully settled yet). Pool is sophisticated and beautiful. Food menu was good too. A nice oasis with private entry to lego land.
