The Spa is not open yet. I was looking forward to some spa time. Maybe next time. They also had a very noisy elevator, hopefully it will be fixed soon.

Minor things - no tea & coffee facilities in room. If you call, they will bring you free tea or coffee but sometimes it’s easier to just do it yourself. The shower took a little while to warm up.
Extremely clean, very nice staff and felt like a home from home. We had a suite which faced out into the pool area which my daughter loved. Little touches like having sun cream by the pool were appreciated. The suite was decorated beautifully and had smart thermostats and lighting for each room, controlled by iPads. We arrived around 11am and were allowed to check in which was fab as we’d been travelling for 16 hours and desperate to get cleaned up. Went for a long walk by the beach, on the pier, got some brunch out... saw the beautiful sunset. We were going to eat out but decided to make the most of the great suite and ended up getting takeaway. I’d def go back although it is not cheap!

The hotel wasn't ready for prime time for our visit on 9/19/19. It has been open for a month, and it appears they didn't have sufficient shakedown for their opening. The elevators weren't working; the phone system wasn't working; the WiFi wasn't working; painting was still going on; there wasn't sufficient training for the front desk to provide concierge service. The in-room lighting system is horrible - one switch (not at the bed - turns on/off all lights in the room, including the bedside lamps (which cannot be turned off at the bed. All room lighting is low volt, which is almost certainly programmable from a common box in the electrical room, and when I called down to the desk to complain, I was told that 80% of the guests complain about this, and in this first month they haven't managed to get this corrected. All of these problems should have been corrected before they accepted their first paying guest.
The hotel is modern and chic, and after they get all the bugs worked out it will be an excellent hotel.

No tea/coffee in the rooms (despite booking.com saying there was). Frustrating as was a family suite and families often can’t go out at night. Only option was room service - I got a cup of tea one night and it was $16USD which is outrageous
Lovely big suite, gorgeous pool and nice restaurant.

Room temperature and lights controlled by iPad. All very cool and trendy but just a bit fiddly especially after you've raided the mini bar...
Perfect location with stunning ocean views and short stroll to the beach. Beautiful decor, huge beds and dangerously tempting mini bar. Staff all fantastic with lovely breakfasts. Also great history as it's where Stan Laurel lived before it was converted to a hotel.
