Not the most deluxe accommodations (bare-bones minimum bathroom, poorly laid out room). The carpet was in serious need of replacement too. We were able to have our two dogs with us, which was the big attraction of this place, other than the close beach access. To our surprise, there is a fabulous restaurant just across the street (called Hoppe's). It's... more

Last minute change to stay at the oceanview lodge on our way back from Joshua National Park to San Francisco, it was difficult to find good lodging with availability so we took a chance with Shoreline Inn. We stayed in room 120 and it was clean; however, my bed was bad (may be too old) and gave me backaches following... more

This motel was booked directly over the phone with the motel. The reservationist sold us a 2nd floor ocean view room (1st dishonest statement). As this was our 25 year anniversary, we were very excited to stay in a small beach town in a motel with an ocean view. Upon arriving, we were given our room #118 on the first... more

We welcome all comments regarding our property because we are confident of the service that we provide. We regret that this matter could not be resolved t the guest satisfaction.I do believe it was miscommunication with this individual. If our property was as she states, we would not have a business that has been family owned for over 26 years.We...

What a beatiful view! Our room was huge, clean and centrally located. The staff was friendly too. My little dog was very welcome. Right ON the beach. Perfect! I can't wait to go back. This was my first time visiting Cayucos. Very quaint little town, great antique shops, But the Shoreline Inn was the jewel in the crown! more

Our plane landed in San Francisco on a cool, crisp day in March. We rented a car and drove down HWY 1 to Cayucos and the Shoreline Inn. The view from the second floor was excellent! It provided us with an unobstructed view of the ocean and the Cayucos pier. The Inn has a grassy courtyard with picinc area and... more

I stayed at the Shoreline Inn for a family reunion over a weekend. We stayed in what appeared to be the 'older' building that is located a few feet from the beach. From the room the sliding door opened directly into a green grassy area which is separated from the sandy beach by a low block wall. Dogs are allowed.... more

My daughter and I have just returned from a five night vacation in Cayucos where we stayed at the Shoreline Inn. In my opinion this is the ONLY place to stay while visiting the area. We stayed in a 'standard' room (which I believe is the original part of the hotel) upstairs with a small deck overlooking the pier and... more

For three nights in June my staging ground for all of San Luis Obispo County was at the Shoreline Inn...truly AT the shoreline of the Pacific Ocean in Cayucos, CA. It proved to be just the right spot. Each day would start off with complimentary breakfast and newspaper at a table with a view to the water and sometimes return... more

We stayed at the Shoreline Inn for four nights this november. We booked a fireplace suite as it was our honeymoon. The hotel was being refurbished while we were there and there were only a few guests staying. Having said that they kept disruption to a minimum and offered room service for breakfast when the lobby was being decorated. The... more
