A two course plated breakfast is included every morning poolside while you enjoy a dramatic view of the ocean.
Some of the room amenities include:
• King-size bed with 300-thread count, organic cotton linens
• Beautiful curtains for privacy and light/temperature control
• Rain shower

• Plush bathrobes and towels
• Signature El Castillo bath and body amenities
