An Exceptional Stay – We’ll Be Back!

From the moment we arrived at The Sunset Inn, we were blown away. Rishi was a gracious, attentive, and thoughtful host who made us feel completely at home. The little touches here make a huge difference — the continental breakfast with oatmeal, pastries, granola bars, cereal, fresh fruit, a lovely assortment of teas, and a coffee machine that even dispenses hot cocoa was such a treat. The bed was beyond comfortable, and we loved that the property is just a short drive to Cannery Row and Fisherman’s Wharf, plus only a five-minute walk to a scenic hike and the oceanfront — you could literally smell the sea from our room. We stayed in the Otter Cove room, and it was so cozy with its own fireplace. But the shower deserves its own paragraph — honestly, the BEST hotel shower I’ve ever experienced (and I’ve traveled a lot for work!). It felt like a spa with a rain showerhead above and a handheld with multiple massage features. We didn’t want to get out! Every room has a charming name, the atmosphere is warm and inviting, and Rishi and his team are truly the hosts with the most. We can’t wait to come back — this was an exceptional stay from start to finish!

A must stay experience!

Such an amazing stay!! Customer service was top of the line! Very kind during checking in and checkout also the gentleman who helped me was very informative about the area and places to go! The rooms are just beautiful, cozy and filled with excellent products! I will absolutely be planning another visit and staying with them! The location is a short 2 minute walk to the beach and being able to see the deers just roam around was a bonus of the area! The location was like a little cottage vibe, relaxing, peaceful and quiet!
