From the reviews
Solid beach club/venue. Seemingly the best in the area. Fine place to host an event with stunning views as well as tennis and pickleball courts.
No words. Private party, amazing place to be. Bar overlooking ocean, would definitely recommend joining this club
This place holds a special significance for me. The atmosphere is incredibly inviting and serene, making it the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. I truly enjoy spending my weekends here, surrounded by nature.
Delightful. Private Club but we came as guests of our son. Valet parking as well as Overflow parking that is at no cost. Food is very good with indoor and outdoor beach side setting. Well maintained and helpful staff. Chairs and umbrellas provided.
Getting married at Jonathan Club
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.
