Grand Ballroom and oceanfront ceremony
The Grand Ballroom supports sangeet and reception productions up to approximately 400 guests. Coffered ceiling and classical detailing support substantial suspended floral installation and traditional mandap work at fourteen-by-fourteen footprints.
Cliffside ceremony sites include the Ocean Lawn (most dramatic Pacific-view ceremony setting on the Bay Area coast) and the Main Lawn (more enclosed, wind-protected, suitable for ceremonies where wind is a concern). Outdoor havan works at both sites with San Mateo County fire permit.
Full multi-day production capability
The property's 261 rooms accommodate most wedding blocks on-site, which simplifies multi-day Indian wedding logistics meaningfully. Fire-pit terraces support cocktail hours and intimate mehndi productions. The spa and pool areas accommodate smaller pre-wedding events.
Multi-day wedding typical structure: mehndi at a pool terrace or fire-pit lounge, haldi in a garden courtyard, sangeet in the Grand Ballroom, ceremony on the Ocean Lawn, and reception back in the Grand Ballroom or under a tent on the Main Lawn.
