We paid for an upgraded room. It hadn’t been updated in 50 years. Sink faucet dripped all night. Counter was chipped. Tile surround in tub was moldy. Floor by bathtub was damaged. The room stunk of mildew and old fireplace smoke when we first walked in. Could hear the plumbing and fan in room above us. It did feel safe and had a good view out the slider.
I love Asilomar. Perfect location. Beautiful architecture. Magical grounds. Easy walk to the beach. Breakfast is fantastic too. But there was a mix-up with our room, and although we were upgraded, the front desk staff wasn't very friendly or understanding. Also, the blinds in our bedroom were missing their rod so we couldn't shut them all the way to block out light for sleeping.
Amazing team at the front desk. They were welcoming and helped us make it a great birthday to remember!

There was no fridge no tv and construction outside window. Had to search for ocean view. Bed was cheap and hard to sleep. Room didnt match picture. No coffee maker either. We left a day early
I have nothing but superlatives to say about Asilomar. The quiet, peacefulness, beauty of the location soothe the soul and ease the mind. Best of all...no TVs in the room to disturb the tranquility! Yay!
Always a lovely place to stay. The plumbing could use updating.

A beautiful property, a lot of fun for the kids to run around. However, the rooms are ran down and are in desperate need of remodeling.

Beautiful location for a getaway. Some of the rooms are lovely and have been recently updated- I could see this as I walked by historical buildings that were near mine. However, my room on this visit had tattered curtains, electrical outlets that jiggled when I plugged my phone charger in, and was generally very much in need of updating. Not a good value for the money. Also, know that some rooms have lovely views, and others do not- look out on parking areas, and that requesting a room with a view does not assure you will receive one.
