The Fountain Coffee Room and Cabana Cafe provide less formal alternatives, with a total of three restaurants and one bar. The spa, redesigned by Champalimaud Design, takes its visual cues from California’s flora and fauna and includes four treatment rooms, a couples’ suite, and a relaxation room. An outdoor pool operates year round, and complimentary bicycles are available for up to two hours daily.
