The hotel is beautifully designed. Elegant yet comfortable/cozy. The staff was attentive, friendly and so helpful. The location is perfect. I enjoyed being a bit further out of town and the immediate access to the cliff trail. Breakfast in the terrace was the perfection. My massage was also a delightful experience.
Everything was above and beyond. My only “criticism” was the food service. As a professional chef, it may be my own bias & non-negotiables towards exceptional service so I say this with the upmost respect, but I expected the service to match the superior service experienced everywhere else in the hotel. I was rather surprised when it didn’t. Perhaps additional training is needed.

Location is perfect.
The property definitely needs some improvements. First we came we had no water in the room for one night as it was some storm around this area a week before and no one check the room condition before we arrived. Fortunately management resolved the problem for the next day but the day of arrival was completely spoiled. I do not downgrade the hotel score a lot as the management did their best to help us. However, other things to check - low water pressure anyway - staff is limited and requires additional training especially in restaurant area - binoculars not enough, we only found one for 4 of us - best rooms situated above breakfast / dinner area which makes rest challenging. Stuff in the morning produces naughty sounds with plates eta.
