This is such a beautiful hotel. From the moment we arrived until the moment we left; we felt at home. The rooms are beautiful, and you can't beat the view and all the property amenities. My only regret was having to leave. I can't wait to go back

We had a wonderful “lower” room do we didn’t hear any traffic noise though we heard our neighbor’s TV once or twice and a few heavy footsteps above us. The views of the mighty Pacific are gorgeous from almost everywhere on the property, and there are lots of outdoor places to enjoy them—several fire pits, a gazebo, some hammock chairs with umbrellas, a hot tub, a lawn, some benches atop the cliffs, or your own private balcony. The rooms have safes, bathrobes, mini fridges, microwaves, and a cozy throw blanket to cover you up outside if it gets breezy. Parking and breakfast were both included, ample, and convenient, and there was an included wine hour in the late afternoon. The staff couldn’t have been more pleasant or helpful. Plenty of restaurants south toward Pismo downtown (.5 to 1.5 miles) or north to Shell Beach (.8 miles). Both an easy walk if you’re so inclined. The cons: the in-room heater (and presumably a/c in the same unit) is loud; the Maxwell House pods for the in-room Keurig are not for people who really enjoy coffee; lastly, the pumps on the bath amenities were all rather stubborn and the soaps themselves were pretty basic. Bring your own if you like to wash your face with something that feels and smells good. Overall, though, a great find. We’ll be back.

What a great hotel! We stayed in an ocean front room and the view was spectacular! The landscaping around the hotel feels like an oasis, its secluded, and there's a private beach! The staff was very friendly, the breakfast was wonderful, and the room was clean. I will definitely be going back. Highly recommend. Thank you!

Check in was nice but there was a long wait. The room was clean but walls were thin and the person next to us kept us up all night from his constant coughing. We paid extra to have an ocean front room for my birthday but at night we had to close the sliding glass door and couldn't enjoy the ocean breeze and sounds because the person next to us kept smoking cigarettes on the balcony and the smoke kept coming into our room. This is supposed to be a non smoking area and one of the reasons we chose this hotel. IE: no smoking in rooms or on balconies. It really ruined our stay. Also there were many people with dogs on the property and too many guests didn’t pick up their dogs waste and they let their dogs run off leash around the property. We were offered only a $50 credit for the smoking issue. I do not recommend this hotel if you want a nice pleasant get away.

This hotel was wonderful, all of the rooms have a great view, the pool and hot tub were amazing, and there is a trail down to the cove underneath the property. Breakfast was a great bonus too!
