I have stayed here dozens of times over the years and love being on the ocean bluff listening to, and watching, the waves, and the birdlife (especially the pelicans). When you compare the cost of a room here versus in town, it is a great value - and the drive to and from SLO is beautiful and easy.

10/10

Amazing views from oceanfront room. The whole stay from checking to leaving was excellent. Using as a stay over while on riad trip but wished i had arranged to stay longer. Didnt want to leave. Pool was lovely and warm and spa hit the spot. Would highly recommend this hotel for one or more nights. One of the best we stayed in during our trip and we have stayed in a lot!

Hotel has been updated nicely. We were hoping for more than a partial ocean view and hoping to hear waves. That was not the case.
