If it’s a pet friendly hotel, it would really be helpful if the restaurant on site was pet friendly as well. The room was relatively clean but it would be better if the floors—both inside and out—were tile or LVT. Carpet isn’t conducive to pets. We loved the fireplace feature, but it did get a bit smokey in our room. You’re pretty close to wine country, so wine glasses in the room would be appreciated. The mini fridge was stocked but left little room for our own stuff. A microwave would be awesome.

This is a nice hotel right on the beach. Very nice views of the ocean and sunset from the room. The hotel itself is on the older side but it is maintained well. Nice in-room fireplace and several outdoor fire pits overlooking the ocean, if you want to roast marshmallows for smores. Restaurant was good. Resort staff was friendly and helpful. It is the closest hotel on the beach to Hearst castle and Cambria is just 10 minutes away, really offering more food and shopping options. Can’t beat the location in the area. We will be back to bring our little schnauzer next time as it is pet friendly. We came in from Silicon Valley. Try to book when the weather is warm and sunny as it could get cold even in summer. We got lucky with all sunny days but still barely 70 degrees.

We saw whales breaching in the distance in our second floor ocean front room. Wished there were some napkins or paper towels near the sink.

Great property for a vacation with your pets. Gorgeous ocean views, nice ama ties on the property such as several benches and seating areas to enjoy the view and listen to the waves. The rooms are very dated, which I don’t mind; however, the armed chairs had no support and we sink to the frame and the pillows were lacking. Room is overall clean but could benefit from a deep clean. I set something on the brick near the fireplace and it was covered with dust when I picked it up. The staff is fantastic, the grounds are very peaceful and our room was very quiet. Would definitely stay again.
