The resort is in the best location with breathtaking 180 degree views of the dramatic pacific coast. The room was clean and very comfortable with a cozy fireplace. The onsite restaurant and lounge are excellent choices for dining breakfast, lunch, or dinner while gazing at the incredible ocean views along Big Sur. I loved my stay here!
