    The Surf and Sand's restaurant, SPLASHES, has been a favorite of mine for many years. When the hotel closed for remodeling, I was curious if SPLASHES would get some TLC too, as we all age, whether we want to admit it or not. I have good news: The place is updated, and if possible, even more beautiful, more soulful, more perfectly designed to take advantage of the world-class views and ambiance. The menu is reasonably priced and the service was excellent. We couldn't have been happier and have already recommended it to our family and friends. We love SPLASHES!!

    The restaurant and staff were so lovely and accommodating. My son got engaged on the beach below and we had a celebratory dinner afterwards. They worked so hard to make it perfect for us. BRAVO and THANK YOU to all the staff at Solashes!

    We really enjoyed our dinner last night at Splashes. The halibut, filet mignon and sea bass special were all delicious, as was the charred broccolini. We had a fabulous outdoor table overlooking the beach and ocean. Splashes is a special place and we will be back.

    We went to Splashes to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. We heard that the view was spectacular and boy, was the view magnificent. We requested a table with an ocean view and the staff came through. Our table was right up against the window with an unobstructed view of the Pacific Ocean. Wonderful ambiance and excellent service. The food was great as well. We would definitely recommend Splashes, especially for a special occasion.

    We went for lunch. First ones there and gave our order. Waited about 30 min for salads to arrive , meanwhile people that came after us got their entrees. No explanation from wait staff as to why. We asked for bread and had to pay $12 for a small loaf of brioche with butter. The space is beautiful, remodeled and right on the ocean so you listen to the surf. I hope menu gets elevated to similar level as physical space. Food was unremarkable. Serving sizes small for cost .

    So disappointing. Our wedding reception was at Splashes 32 years ago and we returned from out of town with our daughter and her fiancé to celebrate. When we tried to check in we were told to go downstairs since there was a private party, left to find our own table. It was apparent all the attention was given to the private party. Our waiter was Alfredo who was excellent. The narrow walkway where the tables were was not a very pleasant dining experience. Not the fault of the restaurant but half way through our meal a seagull pooped all over us, the food and table. Alfredo quickly cleaned everything up and replaced all our entrees. Needless to say I think we will wait another 32 years to dine again at Slplashes.
