From the reviews
I stayed here overnight on a work trip. I chose Heritage house on a whim due to its proximity to my work location. I was absolutely blown away. The staff treated me very well, upgraded my room to an ocean view, and after driving for 6hrs, walking into my room was magical.
I just ate dinner there with a couple of friends. The food there is exceptional. Work your way thru the appetizers, they're great! Then dice into the Entrees, the chicken parm is superb, and comes with delicious fettuccine. The views are epic and live music is available on select nights.
Getting married at Heritage House Spa
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
