This was one of the best hotels I've been at. The rooms were nice, the property was great, but the best thing was the location. We could walk right out our room, cross PCH @ the crosswalk right next to the resort and be on the beach...took maybe 3 minutes.
They have remodeled most of the hotel and are almost completed with a 2 year addition to add more rooms and pools. The pool they have now is great already. It's a heater saltwater pool which just is beyond words relaxing.
When you go to the beach you need chairs, umbrellas, beach towels, and sand toys for the kids (or yourself if you want to have fun). That's all included. Just ask the pool attendant and they supply you with all that...A+.
They only downfall is the price. It could be expensive but it really is worth it for a beach vacation. You can sleep with the sliding doors open, feel the ocean breeze and listen to the waves crashing all night long.
I highly recommend staying here at least once to just experience it. My wife, 4yr old, and 20month old loved it.
