The huge two-bedroom suite had a stunning ocean view, perfect for relaxing afternoons with my family. We enjoyed memorable sunsets from our double balcony, while the kids splashed around in the heated pool, thanks to the attentive staff who made our stay enjoyable.
In my wife’s opinion, a kids' club would be great.

Had an amazing vacation with friends! The one-bedroom suite ocean view was perfect for lounging after visits to Hearst Castle and a local wine tour. The staff were incredibly friendly and the grounds were gorgeous. Spacious rooms and a well-stocked kitchen made our stay super comfortable. I highly recommend this place for a fun group getaway!
Only downside was that we wished we could have stayed longer. we didn't have enough time to fully enjoy everything!

We had a two-bedroom suite pool side view, really spacious with a full kitchen, dining area, and all the utensils you’d need. The heated saltwater pool was perfect even when it was cooler outside. Plus, the staff were super attentive and made our stay feel extra special with thoughtful touches and help whenever we needed it.

Perfect getaway spot!
I had a lovely one-night stay. The room was super spacious with a full kitchen and an amazing ocean view! The patio dining was on point, giving killer sunset vibes. Only downside was the early morning noise from staff outside my window. They laugh pretty loud, lol. Still, I’d definitely recommend for anyone looking to splurge a bit.
