Do we have to leave?

My husband and I enjoyed two nights at HH in a beautiful room with unmatched ocean views. The room was soooo comfortable (the bedding to die for!) and had all the amenities you’d want. (Except a blow dryer; for future travels, take note). Sitting on the balcony in the early morning or at sunset was such a treat and so good for the soul. The grounds are quiet and woodsy and sunny and gorgeous. The staff is like family; so kind. Always a “good morning” or “have a nice day”. We definitely will return. Maybe a family trip in one of the private houses!

Fantastic room, fantastic views.

One of the very few hotels that in which you do not want to leave the room. However, given the unmatched proximity to the ocean and its amazing grounds and views this was unlikely. A truly special stay despite some rain and a mediocre kitchen. I would recommend this to anybody who loves nature and the awe inspiring coast of Northern California coast. American hotels are increasingly let down by the lack of staff. Also, they generally fail to offer any alternative to scrambled eggs sitting in a steam basin. Whilst excellent fruit, yoghurt and granola is satisfying it was disappointing to my Asian wife. A next station cooking fresh breakfasts would have been perfect.
