Insider’s recommendations
- The Chalana restaurant offers delicious food, but it only opens Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. You will enjoy fresh, locally sourced scallops and sushi at this one-of-a-kind dining room, which blurs the line between restaurant and pier.
- The complex is in the middle of wildlife activity, allowing guests to see sea lions, flamingos, dolphins, and penguins at ease.
- The hotel offers world-class amenities like a private dock, a luxury spa, exquisite local and international cuisine.
- The hotel has two lovely and big pools. However, if you stay with children, you have to use the secondary pool and not the main pool.
