Accommodations

The hotel offers unique cottages, including Flower Cottage, Apple Cottage, and Redwood Tower, each with private outdoor hot tubs and enclosed gardens. All units are individual and do not share walls with other guests, providing a private retreat. Rooms include kitchens or kitchenettes, flat-screen TVs, and private bathrooms.

The on-site Sweetwater Eco Spa provides organic treatments, full body massages, and couples massages. Guests have access to a sauna, hot tub, and spa lounge at no extra cost. Spa/wellness packages and a variety of massage types, from head to foot, are available on the property.

Dining

Daily breakfast pastries from Goodlife Cafe are delivered to guest rooms each morning. Two fine-dining restaurants, Luna Italian and Patterson's Pub, are located directly behind the property. An ocean-view restaurant on-site combines Victorian charm with coastal views.
