Designed in a bygone era to showcase the marvel of electricity, the original Lumina shone so brightly that sailors navigated their ships by it – and generations of beach-lovers navigated their social lives around it. We recapture that spirit today in a resort space lit with camaraderie, beckoning visitors and locals alike with dazzling hospitality. Every guest room here enjoys an ocean or harbor view; most have balconies and some have bunk beds to accommodate families better. Recreation opportunities abound, with three pools and direct beach access, a hammock garden, a beachfront fitness center, and a full slate of onsite activities and entertainment. The best food on the beach is right here, too, from fine cocktails and cuisine to bar bites and local brews at our three onsite dining options, Solstice Kitchen + Cocktails, Longboard Coffee + Market , and Surfside Beach Bar & Grille.
