Great stay! Room was clean, views were amazing. Room service brought clean towels and other necessities. The food at the lantern was overly priced and it was just ok. I was hungry late at night and didn’t want to go anywhere so I ordered from them and I paid about $60 for an appetizer and fries which were ok. I enjoyed making s’mores with the s’mores kit given to us. The parking was easy. After our stay I realized the amenities arnt free as you get charged daily for it. Overall 4stars and I would stay here again!

One star because manager comped us parking and a voucher for the restaurant for the “inconvenience”. We booked an ocean view room and ended up in a room that overlooked the highway and Home Depot. Additionally, they charged me AGAIN for the stay despite me prepaying on Expedia. I’m still waiting for the reimbursement. Beautiful location but do yourselves a favor and stay elsewhere. What a hassle to stay in a less than mediocre room. None of this has ever happened to me before and I’ve traveled extensively.

So lets start with when we got there it was after 5pm and the room was not ready and had to wait about 45mins to get one. Then they charge you a deposit $250 incease you break something in the room , after that they charge you to park $50 plus tax nightly and then they tell you the gum, smore kits, pool, sauna, and offer you a glass of wine when checking in saying its "complimentary" then charge you $25 plus tax for amenities and when ask to explain they tell you everything they said was complimentary $25 amenities fee which is per night as well. Kind of ridiculous and my room looked nice but the bed and pullows were horrible we ended up with 4 pillows each and still not comfortable. The staff was nice.
