“The hotel certainly seems focused on delivering a luxury experience, drawing inspiration from the coastal views and local resources, particularly in its spa treatments and dining. Golfers will appreciate the two championship courses, and families have a range of tailored activities available, which, for me, really sets it apart as a destination that attempts to cater to a broad audience seeking both relaxation and recreation. While a bit removed from San Francisco, the hotel positions itself as a self-contained escape with a range of amenities.”
