First time at this particular hotel, and it's definitely on my list for a revisit. It's undergoing some renovations, but it doesn't appear to affect operations. They are a valet only hotel, at least at this time, and also require you to sign a non-smoking agreement as this is a policy of the hotel location. The grounds are lovely, the location is gorgeous and the staff is attentive. I was impressed with the speed of the room service and their offerings of specialty Starbucks coffee, like Caramel Macchiato, delivered to your room. I was also pleasantly surprised with the efficiency of their valet service, which can often take 20 minutes at other hotels. We received our vehicle in less than five minutes, despite how busy they were with a Marine Corp Ball being held during our stay. I would suggest springing for the coastal view room if you can. We had a large patio that was nice to go out in evening and spend some time watching the sunset.
