Top Avila Beach Hotel Reviews

Avila Beach 'Boathouse'

8/10 Good

"Our stay here was nice! The shower doesn’t get hot very quickly, which was a bit annoying, but not horrible. The check in process was a bit difficult, since the code for the door wasn’t working.. we had to contact the manager and they needed to come there and fix it and get us into the rent. Check in was at 4:00pm; they arrived fairly quick and got us into the rental by around 4:30-4:40. Other than that, our stay was good. Also, keep in mind, there are a lot of steps to get to the condo. Which was a bit rough, especially traveling with a baby, but it was do-able."

Hilton Vacation Club San Luis Bay Avila Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay walking distance to the beach and town will 100% stay there again."

Sandcastle at Avila a Family Condo, Steps to Beach

8/10 Good

"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: You can’t beat the advantage of steps from beach and secure parking. Hosts are responsive, supportive; home is clean, equipped. Restaurant options local or short drive to SLO. Beach is kid-friendly and sunnier than Pismo.The only downside is the noise from Custom House (2 smaller bedrooms overlook their rear alley) first thing in morning and last at night."

Beachy Keen: 2 master ensuites, steps from beach, rooftop BBQ

8/10 Good

"Great location; walking distance to beach. Good bbq and patio space. Garbage disposal was broken during our stay. Garage space is limited - our truck wasn’t able to fit. The driveway is super narrow. If you have a truck or large SUV, check on garage size."
