Beautiful property with a walkway to the beach down a hill. Staff is very nice and accommodating. Given a phone to communicate with staff and got responses within minutes. Our 2 bedroom B&G villa was nicely decorated with spacious living room/kitchenette/ dishes and microwave. Private hot tub on the deck, great A/C. Pool has ocean view. Gym has only a few weights, one treadmill, feels hot inside due to hot tub in same space. Breakfast was included and was excellent. Highly recommend; we loved our stay.

We loved staying here with such friendly and helpful staff and an amazing view it was definitely a great place to stay. The view of the ocean from the restaurant and the food made for a beautiful dinner and drinks at the end of the day especially at sunset. Breakfast was delicious as well. Will definitely recommend to friends coming to the area in the future!

The resort is a beautiful property sitting on top of Santa Barbara Beach. Both dinner and breakfast were excellent and staff was very friendly. Unfortunately during our stay it was very windy, which is why we couldn't use most of the resort, including the beach. Also with big gusts of wind, the door to our Resort Villa slammed in its hinges. The Spa is unfortunately disappointing, it's just a hot tub and the massages are very expensive. It's nice but for the price point, we would have expected more.

This resort was amazing for our honeymoon trip! They gave us a phone for communication and for use around the island for a GPS. The staff was amazing with giving us recommendations and helping make reservations. One of our favorite rituals was the bedtime ritual with the nightly tea that we will definitely incorporate back home.

What a beautiful property! The views are stunning everywhere on the property from the office to the restaurant to the rooms. I stayed in a private pool room and it was perfect. Very clean, smelled lovely, quiet, and relaxing. Room service is fast and the staff is friendly. I wish there was an option to rent a golf cart to use around the property because it was cold when we visited and the walk to get our taxi was torture. But otherwise absolutely no complaints. Can’t wait to visit again.
