Great place to stay. Great location. The hotel is beautiful, the staff treats you like you are a VIP. We only ate at the Schooners Restaurant on site. The food and staff was excellent. You have the option of eating inside or out. Both nights we ate outside. The heaters kept us warm and we enjoyed the sounds of the crashing waves. We stayed on the fourth floor apparently below the gym, which is on the fifth floor. The gym opens at 6 AM and two out of the three nights we slept there we could hear someone running on the treadmill at 6 AM. The sound was not loud but it was noticeable. We were on the water side and the sea lions were barking all night. We kept the windows closed and the sound was barely noticeable. The rooms are nice. The gym is really good for a hotel gym. I can’t speak about the spa since I didn’t use it. All in all we loved this place and would stay there again.

This is a very nice hotel in a great location. The room was clean with a great view of the bay and had a balcony where you can spot the otters and seals with the provided binoculars. Restaurants had great service and offered room service. Check in, valet and bell service were top notch. Would stay there again when in Monterrey for sure.

This property is absolutely stunning and everything we were looking for. We had an ocean view room with such attention to detail. Loved listening to the waves crash and the seals in the morning. And I’ve never slept so sound- bed and pillows are heavenly. We’ll be back.
