Wonderful, wonderful hotel! Our second time staying here and we will be back! Location is exceptional, walking distance, 3 minutes, to our favorite restaurant! Nice fire pit out front with lots of chairs to watch the sunset over Moonstone Beach!

Great view of the ocean from our room. The hotel was very clean and open with a lot of parking. We were greeted and welcomed to the check-in lobby where we were given fresh baked cookies while we waited! Very good service, very clean room.

Location of the property was great! The room was very clean with all amenities stocked. I loved that it had a little vanity area that avoided me being in my husband’s way while he showered and I got ready. The room was so cozy and spacious. The price seemed unbeatable with the location of the hotel and overall facility.

that some of the people in nearby/adjoining rooms are completely clueless as to the necessity to close their doors quietly. Instead, they slam them hard. No need for that. But this is everywhere, not just at this location,

Great property with ocean views and beach walking across the street. Friendly staff, clean rooms. Beds are on the firmer side, and bathroom was a bit small. Plenty of chairs out front to view sunset, as well as firepit and heated pool/spa. Couple of restaurants/ wine tasting rooms within walking distance.

Located so close to the ocean you can see and hear the waves and is just a 2-3 minute walk to the raised walking path along the ocean. Traffic is always lite and conducive to walking or bicycling. The City of Cambria is a short 5 minute drive which provides plenty of shopping and dining options. Hearst Castle is also a short drive drive away.
