    Bathroom toilet sits ways too low to the floor. Felt like it was made for 5 year olds.

    Cali vibes 🌴

    I thoroughly enjoy everything about this place. As soon as I pull up I’m already smiling. The team outside has good vibes, the folks at the desk are great ,the location is amazing ,the views are wonderful and you never know what cool people you may meet down by the pool while enjoying fresh tacos (props to the cooks )the staff and bartenders making everything come together!
