Stuff You Should Know

The owners won't name-drop their celebrity guests, but Rolling Stone will (hello, Harry Styles). Steps are everywhere - literally everywhere - making this a non-starter for the mobility-challenged but perfect for those seeking thigh definition. The beach requires a road crossing and stair master certification, but the infinity pool offers consolation with views that make postcards feel inadequate. Pro tip: Upper rooms aren't just about elevation - they're about validation of your life choices. And yes, that really is a recording studio upstairs.

Food and drink

Food + Drink On-site surprises

Where Bushbar Meets Billboard Charts

The Bushbar serves as both sustenance provider and potential music industry networking opportunity (though they'll never confirm or deny). Open-air dining with views that make you forgive any minor culinary missteps, though you won't find many. A separate seafood menu proves the kitchen, like the recording studio, knows its tracks. The bar stays busy with a crowd too cool to care they're being cool, while the soundtrack - unsurprisingly - slaps. Whether you're fueling up for beach steps or recovering from them, the casual-but-curated vibe hits all the right notes.
