We had a memorable experience.
Pros:

We stayed in an ocean-view King Suite, which exceeded our expectations. Tons of room and fantastic view, not to mention an amazing wood fireplace.

Cons:

Everything was great. I especially liked the pro-level Nespresso coffee maker and pods.

Fabulous getaway in a resort with the best views and NW vibes.
Pros:

The property is gorgeous. Plenty of amenities in the room, and the most comfortable trees I’ve ever slept on! Staff were attentive and helpful.

Cons:

It took some time to get seated for dinner, however staff were limited, and I would have expected more attentiveness since the were not many diners.

Pros:

A non-working fireplace when it is one of the main features is not acceptable. No adjustment to the room rate. No offer whatsoever even though we expressed our disappointment twice.
Pet rate of $60 per night is excessive. Most places are $15-30 per night maximum.

We arrived early and requested an early check in if possible. Not only was this not provided but in fact our room was not ready on time and the hotel was much less than busy from what we saw.

Definitely room for a lot of improvement especially when charging your rates.

Pros:

The room was very comfortable, clean, cozy and had a great view. The dining room was freezing and the food was just okay. However, the dessert was OUTSTANDING. Cudos to the Pastry Chef.
Suggestion: Renovate the dining room, paint the doors going in and out of the kitchen, the dirt on them is very off putting.
