Top Piedras Blancas Lighthouse Hotel Reviews

Sands by The Sea

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice staff and the room was quiet."

Coast Riders Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We booked this reservation just a couple of days ahead of getting there and the place couldn’t be a more welcoming and pleasant place to stay. Buddy, the owner, really went out of his way to make us feel welcome. The room was clean, bed and pillows very comfortable, and the restroom/shower area, super clean and well kept. Although we didn’t get to use it, they have an indoor pool with a homey atmosphere, including tables and chairs, and a TV in the dining area. It is a motel reminiscent of the 50s and 60s with it’s decor. Like stepping into a movie with James Dean. Just across the highway/street, access to beachfront space where you can find rocks and driftwood and calming sounds of the ocean as the waves lap onto the shore. Also don’t miss the night sky full of stars! We will definitely be returning here in the near future and next time for more than one night."

White Water

10/10 Excellent

"This is my favorite hotel by far. It’s such a unique experience, more like a B&B than a hotel. The property is gorgeous and so are the rooms. They’re huge and so unique with little nooks and cool layouts. I’ve stayed a few times now and the hotel manager Bryce is always so sweet and helpful. Great cocktails at the bar and my kids loved the nightly s’mores."

Oceanpoint Ranch

10/10 Excellent

"A really home type feel to it, clean with incredible staff."

Sand Pebbles Inn

10/10 Excellent

"I can’t think of any negatives to Sand Pebbles Inn. The staff was great, the view was amazing, the room was fantastic and the town of Cambria is a gem. What a fantastic stay!"

El Colibri Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful, well maintained property. Immaculate room. A luxurious experience."

Hampton Inn San Simeon Cambria

10/10 Excellent

"The room is big, clean and looks new. Breakfast was very good with lots of choices, like waffles, hot and cold cereals, eggs filled with cheese, bacon and potatoes and many more. The hotel is walking distance to the beach, restaurants and short drive to Hearst Castle, Cambria and Moonstone beach. We will definitely stay here again."

One of a kind property- An Acre on the Ocean & Classic Beach Cottage

10/10 Excellent

"The view of the ocean was amazing from the property. We got to see dolphins and whales further out. The house was very clean and charming. Comfortably fit our 5 person family."
