I'd give this place 5 stars but due to the parking charges I cut one off. $80 dollars a night to park your car at the hotel your staying at is ridiculous. We asked the attendant if there was any public garages nearby and he said no. However, there's 2 right across the street.

Excellent hotel, it is a 1min walk to the pier. The restaurant had great food and service. You can use the hotel surfboards and body boards free of charge. Front desk staff are very helpful and friendly especially Clay who is also a surf instructor! One of the best surf lessons I’ve ever had. The room was spacious and the views of the ocean were breathtaking. Overall I highly recommend staying here.
