This place is amazing! We’re so glad we upgraded to the ocean view room—it was beautiful. I absolutely loved the convent of leaving a card for breakfast in the morning, which was delivered, and the complimentary wine during the day—it was a great experience.

Firstly the desk staff and valets were all amazing ! We had a beautiful room on the first floor. It was huge with a wonderful view of the otters and seals. The amenities were great. Wine and cheese reception etc.. very much appreciated. The only issue was we couldn’t figure out how to control the temp in the room. It got very hot. We did open windows but the ocean was a bit wild that night so it was very loud. Overall this place was excellent. The decor is a bit dated but it was a great hotel. Would stay again for sure.
