Very clean room. Very comfortable bed. Didn't visit the rest of the hotel. Rey friendly and professional staff. My review is only 3 stars because I had only two tea bags for 3 mornings. I couldn’t get a coffee pod into the machine-probably my error. No snacks in the refrigerator. Also, I had a problem with parking. I was told there was no charge to self park my car and then was charged $67 a night. Also, the mandatory $50 a day fee to use hotel pool, gym, etc. is unreasonable for folks who don’t use those areas. This visit was a 70th birthday gift so I could dine with friends a few times in Fashion Island. So although I’m grateful for the experience, I think the hotel is over priced for what one gets.

The staff was all very friendly. The restaurant and pool were beautiful. I was thinking the pool bar might be open late into the night but wasn’t and closes around sunset. The rooms were nice but the bathrooms were like half remodeled. Hallways were a little creepy. But overall it was a great stay. Rented an e bike for an hour rather than going to the gym which was fun. Also had breakfast there and it was good.

The room had an absolutely gorgeous view. Everyone who worked on the property was so nice. I will definitely be going back.

Don’t bother when we did go down to breakfast we had to wait 15 minutes before being seated even though there were lots of empty tables. Other guests who weren’t staying at hotel sat down before us. The weather was bad whilst we were there and the hotel doors downstairs were all open so it was also very cold to sit in the bar and restaurant. I was there for 13 days and 2 or those my room wasn’t cleaned. Also we hired a car and to put it into the car park cost us $64 then another $57 taxes per day plus car park attendants expecting tips for retrieving the car. Also there is a golf course at the back of the hotel so that’s why I booked it. Everyday the course was empty photos for hotel gave the impression this was included but to play on the course cost another $449 per round per person. So please be careful people before you book
