We enjoyed the comfortable beds and the toast to sunset at 6. Th staff was very attentive however the concierge gave poor advice. She advised we go to the Wharf when we said we wanted something casual as if we were poor. When we went to the wharf there was a rundown restaurant that didn’t look appetizing at all.. hence we didn’t get out of the car and went to the lark instead and had a lovely meal. Unfortunately one of the hot tubs in the main pool area was broken. Aside from that we had a lovely stay.

The property was beautiful and is situated right against the pacific ocean up on a cliff. You can look out at the ocean while enjoying the pool, which also has poolside service, or utilize trails to access the beach. Valet parking is mandatory if youre curious and the only downside of this resort is that all of the onsite restaurants, bars and spa are very expensive and you can save a significant amount of money by going out. Overall though an extremely nice resort.
