Atmosphere

The Craftsman Bar has a covered bar area and an extensive area where tables are covered with a trellis.

There are ample bar stools if you want to pull up to the bar as well as hightop tables and counters.

The bar is located right next to the hotel’s pool area which makes it very convenient for poolside drinks.
