For the price I was expecting more. Hotel rooms very dated. But did have full kitchen which was nice. We got to the hotel at 3:50pm and was told they didn’t guarantee rooms until 4pm and we would receive a text. So we went to the bar to order a drink and wait. We were never told as Hyatt reward members we should receive a free drink. I was told I could get Hyatt reward points even though I booked thru Hotels.com but that never happened. Finally at 4:30 went to see if they had a room ready since we never received a text and was guaranteed to be ready by 4pm. I was told that our room just got finished. After spending so much money to stay there two nights it was definitely a disappointment.

It is an amazing place for a family to enjoy their vacation, it has a full-equipped kitchen, and its environment is pretty perfect. If we have enough budget, we will be willing to stay more longer.

Overall good stay, amazing property landscape. Rooms can get very noisy if you end up on bottom floor with guest overhead. Woke up both days to overhead guest activity, seemingly just thinly built floor separations. Would stay again, just not on bottom floor with guest overhead Restaurant was great, great staff, good service.

10/10 property. The front desk agents were super accommodating. I had flowers ordered to the hotel and they set everything up perfectly. I proposed to my now fiance. It couldn’t have gone any better. Will definitely be coming back once a year. Absolute amazing experience!

I booked this property to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Ms Chen and Mr Juan at the reception did not let me in despite showing them the booking confirmation from Expedia. They were extra rude and did not cared about it at all and suggested me to contact Expedia since the booking was not showing up in their system. 2 hours later : They identified booking in their system and asked me to come back to the hotel. I requested to cancel the reservation due to this terrible experience but they did not cancelled my booking. In my opinion, you shouldn’t be booking this property.

Beautiful place to visit if you want serenity. Older but very well kept (and updated). We had an ocean front suite. Superb views from every part of the suite. Nice, fully stocked kitchen added to the comfort. We really did not leave the property much. Got up in the morning and had coffee by the real wood burning fireplace (that they provide the wood and kindling for) and had drinks by that same fireplace in the cool evening. The restaurant (Pacific Edge) was super as well. Had dinner there both evenings we stayed. Get there at the right time and you can see the sunset as you dine. Can't say enough about the staff. Everyone from start to finish was friendly and helpful.
