Purposefully designed for group and incentive travel, the resort features over 27,000 square feet of flexible indoor and outdoor meeting and event space. Highlights include a stunning ballroom with an adjacent event lawn and an open-air pavilion—both showcasing panoramic Pacific vistas—making them ideal for destination weddings, executive retreats, conferences, and large-scale incentive programs.
