Guests often mention how the air conditioning helps them stay comfortable after a warm day, and many appreciate the simple rhythm of returning to a terrace for a slower evening. The hotel also offers self parking for a surcharge, plus covered parking and discounted offsite parking rates, which can be helpful if you’re bringing a car for coastal drives.
