This was my second time at the Lighthouse Suites. We went for my Birthday and it was very nice. The weather always seems to be warmer here than on any other beach. The views are nice and the grounds are very kept up. I never worry about anything being unclean. The one problem we had this time was they ran... more

We are locals and had reservations at another Avila Beach Hotel to arrive and find out they sold our rooms! We were staying overnight for a birthday party. We were going back home, when luck would have it the Lighthouse Suites had a room available! It was beautiful overlooking the ocean, clean, and fresh. The staff were all friendly and... more

We just arrived back from Avila Beach after driving up the CA. coast line from Disneyland for Spring Break. We had never stopped in this area before. We thought that we would explore a southern CA. style beach with our thirteen and sixteen year old children in tow on our way back to San Francisco. We knew nothing beforehand about... more

Avila Beach, California, U.S.A: Avila Lighthouse Suites Date: 19th, 20th March 2008. Reviewer: A TripAdvisor Member, North Yorkshire, England. Travelling as a two family party (with a mixed age group of off-spring ranging from 9 to 26), we booked on-line. The suites consisted of a double bedroom and living area with double sofa bed. Ideal for us, and it saved... more

Stayed for 3 nights at the Avila Lighthouse Suites - myself and my four children. Overall, the experience was positive. The hotel was clean and the room was spacious. I particularly like having a separate sitting area - and there was a TV in both the bedroom and sitting area which was great. We were on the 2nd floor and... more

I've been reading some of the comments regarding this ocean front getaway and can't believe what it takes to please some people. We rented an ocean front ground floor suite for $235 a night and found it to be PERFECT! There wasn't air conditioning, but none was needed in AUGUST because of the ocean breeze. Our room opened to a... more

We had an excellent rate thru AAA and felt the 2 room suite was a great value and so comfortable! They have thought of everything! Location is spectacular - overlooking the gorgeous beach. Excellent breakfast. We've stayed in Pismo Beach and Morro Bay many many times enroute from Northern to Southern California and this is now our new favorite stop! more

It looks great in the photos, but the price is way too high for the lack of comfort and convenience. We stayed at Avila Lighthouse over the Thanksgiving week. The first night we were there, I tried to take a shower and the hot water wouldn't go on. The next morning, it still wouldn't work, so they had us wait... more

We stayed new year's weekend, in a 2nd floor oceanfront suite. After reading some of the mixed reviews, we were hesitant, but on arrival we found the reservation staff pleasant and the suite was spacious, immaculately clean and wonderful. The suites have a large living area and a huge bathroom (with double sink!) and we enjoyed sunset over the beach... more
