Very nice property. The issue we had was the cleanliness of the bathroom. The floor were disgustingly dirty. I used the towel to clean up water on the floor, showed that the floors were not clean or sanitary. I shared this with the manager on duty and she said she would follow up with me. Have not heard back.

Charming and effortlessly stylish, the White Water Inn delivers on every boutique detail. The cottage-chic décor creates a relaxed, coastal vibe that’s both elevated and inviting. Beds are incredibly comfy, and the surprise standout? The cocktails—impressively crafted for a small hotel. The breakfast basket with fresh pastries and mimosas adds a thoughtful, indulgent touch to your morning. And the fire pits overlooking the ocean? Perfect for winding down with a drink while watching the sunset. A cozy, classy gem on the coast.

The morning delivery of a picnic basket with hot coffee, fresh orange juice and sparkling wine to make mimosas and fresh pastry from a French bakery in Cambria exceeded expectations. The room was clean and toiletries were high end. Large walk in shower. Robes, sandals, beach towels and beach blanket were provided. Daily housekeeping. Overall would highly recommend.
