Stayed the night of July 23 before we drove up to San Francisco. Excellent property and would very highly recommend. Great pool, hot tub and outdoor fire pit. Boardwalk right across the street leading to the beach. Continental complimentary breakfast was very good. Great job guys. Adrian from Hamilton Ontario Canada

Great ocean side location and view, but the staff was extraordinary. All hard-working and courteous - starting with Jack at the office. The breakfast was convenient and generous, and everything was sparkling clean. This is a well-run establishment! Kevin & Debbie

Great location and views of the ocean. Staff was very friendly and helpful, Adirondack chairs facing the ocean heated pool, fire pit, self serve breakfast. It’s also a very short drive to Hearst Castle. The bed was very comfortable and the room was clean.

Loved the property, walk across the street to the coast and an elevated boardwalk, Adirondack chairs to watch the sunset, fire pit, pool and jacuzzi. The only reason I gave it 4 stars and not 5 stars was the continental breakfast.

Lovely stay overnight minus noise

Pros are that it's right across from the beach and has been newly remodeled and everything looked fresh and up to date. The one major con was the paper thin walls. I could hear people next door clear as day when they were talking.
