The property is beautiful, well maintained, clean, and the staff are so friendly and helpful! The adjacent paths with swings, tables and chairs, and beach access are amazing. Everything is just as advertised or better, a perfect stay!
This is one of the best hotels I’ve stayed in! And I travel a lot. Gorgeous views, clean, friendly service. It’s a real gem. Everything around the area is stunning- you can spend hours just relaxing and walking around. Recommend!
Top notch property. I usually stay at Hilton properties but I'm so glad to of found this property. Insane views. Insane grounds. Swings and awesome seats are everywhere. Then there is access to what seems like a private beach below tucked in a cove. Can't wait to go back. This place is a fantastic romantic getaway spot. I love how it's a bit away from Pismo too but not too far.

Beautiful location! We had an oceanfront view which I highly recommend. The cove is kind of not close to anything else so you’ll either need to have a car, rent the bikes, or be prepared to walk for >30 mins to downtown. Loved that you could borrow bikes. The texting the front desk option was also nice. The breakfast was classic continental. My two complaints are about the water pressure (practically non existent in the shower or the bathroom sink) and the chromecast did not function for any of our devices. Overall, we had a lovely stay. Personally I think it was a little pricey for what was offered but given the location, I can understand the increased rate.
Our stay for a weekend away was amazing. This property is very nice. Our room was clean and spacious. We enjoyed our view of the pool and the ocean. We will definitely stay here again.
