Very nice secluded hotel. Very upscale but in a low key way. Would love to stay again.

This place is a hidden gem. My parents told me romantic as it gets so 15 years or so later gave it a try! It was awesomely romantic. It was almost perfection with only one small ding. The food choices were not 5 stars and the price point is a little extreme and not likely to leave for food once there. I would say this place is a must for romantic couples looking for no more than 2 nights. Will be back and treated exceptionally well!

Beautiful property! This was my first time here. The only problems were: 1) There was no coffee available in the morning until you were seated. Most hotels I have been to have a coffee station. We were told the person at the front desk could give us a cup of coffee but it would be only black coffee. 2) There was only 1 waiter during breakfast time on Monday morning, so the service was very slow.

Celebrating birthday at a favorite location we’ve visited for decades through many phases of our life & the Hotel’s and loved them all. Even in a room ‘without a view,’ the cleanliness, luxe amenities, charm of the architecture and Edenic grounds will delight all of your senses. All of the staff is so friendly and helpful, and with the Restaurant deck with the trees, city and ocean views, your visit will surely be filled with lasting vacation memories that will bring you back for years, at least in your dreams!
