The resort is in the middle of nowhere. You can't walk to the beach or anywhere else. The marine layer was present every day of our stay in July (which meant is was cloudy). The spa prices are ridiculous. Golf was great! The room had ants. Lots of them. The food was so so and overpriced. The gift shops were below par. The staff was attentive. The concierge was awesome. The property needs a good renovation.

This is one of the greatest resorts in SoCal. You do not feel like it’s a staycation. The grounds are immaculate, the staff and service was so accommodating and nothing was a problem. It is absolutely an expensive place, but if they keep up this level of service and kindness it’s worth every penny. I came with my little kids and they had an absolute blast. The Colosseum pool was so comfortable and kid friendly.
