Property and location are great - breakfast brought in was really good. The room, however, was a bit stuffy with poor air flow even when windows were open and fans were on. Also - when windows open - you can hear all the parking lot noise.

Beautifully maintained and charming with amazing location on moonstone beach. Delicious breakfast and water/coffee options. Easy parking. Would’ve enjoyed a hot tub and an outdoor fire pit option, but that’s being picky.

Sister vacation with Hearst Castle on itinerary

My sister and I stayed one night at the Sand Pebbles Inn. The view was amazing!! So close to the Hearst Castle..less than 15 minutes. We were able to take in a tour the day of arrival and again the next morning. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. We had a partial view of the ocean in room 207. Breakfast was brought to our room the day we checked out. Definitely one of the best places to stay on the Pacific Coast! We will be back again for future sister trips.
