I would not come back because of the price. The resort is a beautiful throwback to the 50's with very cute bungalows. (No operable windows are a deal killer for me). Landscaping is super cute. Location amazing. But the price gouging is ridiculous. It winds up at 500.00 a night with all the fees and taxes. 38.00 per night for parking. 32.00 per night resort fee. Plus all of California taxes. And this 500.00 per night does not include food nor beverages. (In Cancun you can get all inclusive with food and drinks and all fees for an equally lovely hotel for 450.00 a night) And if I had an ocean view room it would have been 400.00 per night extra, on top of the 500.00. The onsite restaurants are nice with lovely ocean views and attentive service. But expensive. Our room has a small fridge but the microwave was removed. We spoke with other guests who did have the microwave. Everyone bought coffee at 5.00 a pop rather than use the in room Keurig. I will assume that they did that for the same reason I did. Mine had not been cleaned and there was standing water left in it from the previous guest. GROSS! They need to take the machines and disinfect them properly AFTER EACH AND EVERY GUEST CHECKOUT and cover after disinfecting. Also they need to train their staff to turn off the alarms. Ours went off at 6:00 AM and ruined my first day. It seems there are guests that find it amusing to leave it set at 6:00 AM for the next guest. Staff needs to clean and make sure all alarms are turned off after each guest check out. All in all it's a lovely place, which needed a small microwave in the room together with the fridge. It needed operable windows. But plan on spending around 650.00 to 700.00 a night with food and drinks and coffee. If you rent bikes and do the activities make that 800.00 to 900.00 a night for a garden view room. Ocean view room plan on 1200.00 to 1300.00 per night.
