We had a wonderful experience! Every item was delicious and beautifully presented. Date shake was the best ever. Hibiscus tea colada was so delicious, as was the berry and Greek Yogurt. The club sandwich was bountiful and tasty. Beautiful decor in a relaxed setting. Service was friendly and attentive. You can dine without paying to be in the Surf Club, but you can see the action and pools, right outside of the restaurant. We will definitely be back!

Heard great things about this place, so went to check it out, thinking it would be cute to watch people learn to surf and have something nice for lunch. The menu was more limited than we expected, so we just had a wrap and a salmon bowl. The food was tasty enough, a bit pricey for the portion sizes. Our server was on-point, attentive but not overbearing, very kind. Was a bit surprised/disappointed that the view wasn't really of the surfing pool, but the lazy river, which wasn't nearly as entertaining to watch. Apparently you can see the surfing pool from the outside patio, but that was closed as they prepared it for an event. Enjoyed ourselves enough, but it wasn't quite as special a 'thing' as we had thought it might have been, were the food a bit more upscale, the view a bit more surfer.

The uniqueness of the restaurant is the best feature. It’s a lovely facility. The menu was limited. The steak bowl was tasty, the Moroccan chicken bowl was not. Service was so-so.
