Service from Aga was excellent — warm, attentive, and she remembered our names, which was a nice touch.
Beautiful dining room, too. A spot we’d happily return to.Great meal overall. The salmon, crab cake, and hamachi were all standouts, and even the hamburger was surprisingly good.

Later in the day, we ordered food from the restaurant to enjoy by the pool. The cheeseburger and wings were amazing. They were seasoned well and quite tasty. If you are staying at the hotel or in the area it’s a good place to grab a bite!
The chicken was clearly prepared just for my salad — not something leftover from earlier in the day. It was fresh, tender, flavorful, and definitely not dry. The salad itself was slightly overdressed, but that actually worked for me since I love bold garlic and parmesan flavors. Altogether, the dish was delicious and well-balanced.
The service was laid-back, which matched the beachside vibe, but I did notice one drawback: no one offered a refill on drinks. That small detail is the only reason I’m docking one star, because a drink top-up would have made the experience perfect.
The atmosphere, though, was beautiful — right by the beach in Oxnard. I never even knew this place existed, but now that I do, I’d say it’s definitely worth the trip if you’re in the area.
This place is a walking health hazard wrapped in the most unprofessional service I’ve ever experienced.
We ordered the chicken wings – it arrived looking pale and rubbery. One bite and it was crystal clear: completely undercooked/raw in the middle. Pink, cold, straight-up dangerous. Sent it back immediately. No apology. No “sorry about that.” Just a blank stare from the server like we’d inconvenienced them by not wanting salmonella.
Then the basics started falling apart:
• No napkins or forks brought to the table (had to flag someone down twice).
• They dropped the final bill on the table… with no pen. Just the check sitting there like we were supposed to magically pay with our minds.
• Asked for salt. Server comes back with an empty salt shaker.
Dessert? It was basically a hockey puck – burned black on the outside. Inedible.
Only after I finally asked to speak to the manager (because at this point we were just stunned) did anything happen. The manager was actually cool about it and refunded the entire bill right away—no pushback, no attitude.
The staff (aside from the manager) acted like we were the problem for expecting edible food, basic table settings, and human courtesy. Zero accountability from most of the team.
If you’re in the mood to gamble with food safety and sloppy service, sure, come here. Otherwise, literally anywhere else is a better choice. Avoid at all costs.
1 star only because 0 isn’t an option.
Our server Aga was fantastic – full of energy, incredibly helpful with menu recommendations, and attentive throughout the meal.
The food was absolutely delicious, with exceptional flavors and beautiful presentation. My taste buds fell in love with the smoked strawberries that come with the half chicken.
The hotel campus itself is stunning – modern, sleek, and beautifully maintained, adding to the overall experience. This was a celebration to remember, and we’re so grateful for how special the team made it.
The customer service was truly A1 — attentive, friendly, and professional throughout. I ordered the crab cakes and the lobster cavatelli, and both were absolutely delicious. Every bite was memorable.
This place is a must-try, and I will definitely be returning. Highly recommended!
