I have stayed at so many hotels this year through-out California and this one was the best by far. The customer service (just like everyone says) exceeds expectations, the location is amazing, and the food/drinks onsite are so good you don’t need to leave. My only complaint is that we did not book this longer but we loved the quaint room, it was so comfortable, and we really enjoyed lounging outside. Most of the time I have checked out of hotels and you want to leave right away, in this case we stayed for a few more drinks and to enjoy the scenery. I think the description online is very straight forward and you can see the room is not huge. The attention to detail is what mattered the most to us along with the amenities it came with. We were helped mostly by Hunter who did such a great job showing us around and responding to all questions. We felt so spoiled.

The property is beautiful. Our room was a great size and contained all we could ask for. The bed was super comfy and everything was clean. We found the staff to be very friendly. The one miss for the property is the lack of anti-slip strips or a grab bar in the bath/shower combo. I would hate for someone to fall.

The bad part is, they don’t submit the credit of $100.00 that they should put back to my credit card, still waiting since 7/12/24, my invoice shows the charge $100 dollars less. Thanks.

We booked a couple of rooms as we were having a huge family party in town. This place is very very nice! Very clean! Not what we expected! The service was impeccable along with the cleanliness! We couldn’t have asked for a more pleasant place to stay. I would highly recommend this place for anyone. And love the center courtyard and there is a place to sit outside and relax!

    Location is excellent for the beach and restaurants. Staff were exceptionally friendly, particularly Brian, who checked us in. Beds very comfortable and even though the room overlooked the highway, noice was minimal. Breakfast was very good(particularly the omelette) with a good selection.
