Event spaces and capacities

- On-site wedding space: up to 25 guests
- Boardroom: 412 sq ft — capacity 15 (conference-style)
| Space | Size / Notes | Capacity |
|---|---|---|
| On-site wedding space | Intimate ceremony/reception area (event page listing) | 25 guests |
| Boardroom | 412 sq ft meeting room | 15 people |
Ceremony and reception logistics
The hotel’s event offerings are for small gatherings; if you need larger ballroom-style space, the hotel points planners toward nearby convention facilities such as the Anaheim Convention Center.
You should confirm setup options (rows, rounds, food service) with the hotel’s events or sales team since published banquet, theater, or alternate capacities are not provided for the Boardroom on the property site.
- Verify ceremony and reception layout options directly with hotel events staff.
- Ask about AV, seating layouts, and whether the Boardroom can be reconfigured for a small reception.
- Confirm timing for access before and after the event (setup/cleanup).
| Item to confirm | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Seating layout | Published capacities are limited — layout affects usable headcount |
| Food & beverage options | On-site dining is limited; coordinate catering or poolside food service |
| Room blocks / discounts | Hotel typically offers discounted room rates for 10+ room bookings |
On-site dining and refreshments
The hotel’s on-site food options include a complimentary Hot Breakfast Buffet and the poolside Splash Lounge, Beverages and Bites (open daily 2:00 PM–9:30 PM) for casual bites and drinks. There is also an on-site Marketplace for grab-and-go items.
The property’s official materials do not describe a full banquet kitchen or multiple on-property restaurants for large plated receptions, so you should confirm available catering choices and whether external caterers are allowed.
