Thanks for posting, however the terms appear to be different than during the special offer for stays between Aug 14-Sept 7.

The package now appears to be $499 per night (vs $250 from Aug 14-Sept 7), and while the California residency was waived previously, it looks like it is once again a requirement. Also, during the Aug 14-Sept 7 period, a 2-night stay was required, unlike now where it appears you can book for just one night.

Or am I missing something here??? (I hope you're right and I'm wrong, CaliforniaCentralCoast!)
