A Hidden Gem

Located in the basement, the wine cellar blends the property’s West Coast ambiance with a more intimate experience. Shelves of bottles line the walls, creating a sense of being tucked into a well-kept secret. It is a space designed for groups who want to gather away from the main dining room, with the same commitment to locally sourced cuisine and attentive service.

For guests staying overnight, the wine cellar offers an extension of the slow, sensory rhythm of the hotel, mornings by the shore, fireside evenings, and a place to share a glass of something special beneath the hotel’s main floor.
