Sleeping arrangements and room types for families
Room configuration varies by type; some rooms offer 1 King Bed and others offer 2 Double Beds. Use the room-name exactly as listed when you book so you get the bed setup you expect.
If you need extra sleeping gear (rollaway, crib), ask the hotel in advance — the hotel’s published facts note that the property accommodates families, but do not list rollaway or crib policies explicitly in the materials provided here.
- When booking, pick the exact room name to confirm bed type and view.

Pool, pool rules and child supervision

The hotel’s materials advise guests to check with the front desk for specific pool rules and guidelines. Supervision requirements for children (lifeguard presence, age limits) are not published in the official facts supplied here, so confirm those details on arrival.

Babysitting, childcare and family services
Babysitting/childcare is available on-site for an additional surcharge per third-party listings. The hotel’s main pages do not publish rates or hours for babysitting, so contact the hotel or front desk to arrange and confirm pricing and availability.
Other family services noted in the hotel materials include multilingual concierge assistance, luggage storage, and front-desk support, which can help with arranging childcare, local activities, or family-friendly plans.
- On-site babysitting/childcare: available for an added surcharge (arrange in advance).
- Concierge can assist with family activities (Aquarium of the Pacific, Catalina Express reservations, local transit).
- Bring identification for children if requested when using childcare services.
Pets, service animals and extra guests
The hotel is pet-friendly and typically allows dogs with a pet fee (one widely cited fee is $100 per stay); service animals are exempt from pet fees. Some third-party sources list pet limits (weight limits and number of pets) so confirm the current pet policy with the hotel before arrival.
Because children 18 and older are billed as adults, notify the hotel when booking if additional adult guests will be joining the room to avoid unexpected charges or occupancy issues.
- Pets: dog-friendly; common fee cited in third-party listings is $100 per stay (service animals exempt).
- Pet limits, weight limits and maximum pets per room are reported on third-party sites — verify exact details with the hotel.

Family dining, breakfast and charges
Market | Bar is the hotel’s all-day dining outlet serving Red Bay Coffee, pastries and California cuisine; the Bar side serves cocktails and small plates. Tides operates weekend breakfast/brunch (buffet) with a Smart Casual dress code.
Breakfast is generally offered for an additional surcharge rather than included in the room rate; published third-party pricing for buffet breakfast varies. Confirm meal pricing and child pricing with the restaurant or at check-in.
- Market (food) hours: 6:00 AM–11:00 PM; Bar hours: 1:00 PM–11:00 PM (kitchen hours vary by day).
