This hotel was in such a peaceful setting. The grounds have spectacular views of the ocean and cliffs. The only things that bothered me were that the TV in my room "buzzed" whenever it was on (not loud, but annoying). Also, there was 1 other floor above me and the floor is obviously very thin since you could hear every... more

We spent all day in the Edna valley sampling fantastic local wines. Really enjoyed the property and beach access. Ocean front rooms are newly renovated and have excellent views. Great experience. more

WOW... you step in to your room with a view and you basically just head out to your lanai.. It is truly a great spot. You are close to the road but no road noise from my room. And very clean, also excellent bath products, lots of space. The negatives: pillows were old and bumpy. I think I can put... more

Several years ago, I'd stayed at the Cottage Inn by the Sea. It was nice in some ways, but had all the fussy B&B frills that I find somewhat disturbing and I was looking for a hotel with a view but reasonably priced. I think I paid around $179 for one night during the Antique Car Show. The good news,... more

This place really needs a makeover. It looks nice from the outside but the rooms are really outdated. We sat on the end of the bed and it almost flipped and the bedspread had seen better days. The bathroom was all white. If you are going to have an all white bathroom it better be pristine, which this one was... more

I'd seen this hotel numerous times from the freeway driving between LA and the Bay Area (it is situated halfway between the two) and was attracted by the ocean view from all rooms. Recently, feeling too tired to drive any further, we called in at the hotel around 9pm hoping that they might have a room available. The front desk... more

We have stayed here at least four times and it has been OK. However, since they renovated the rooms last year (they did a nice job) the service has been abysmal. The last two stays they have given us terrible rooms (after we had booked the most expensive and well in advance) and argued with us when we asked to... more

My husband and I and our infant son stayed in this hotel this past weekend. We were in Pismo Beach for a family event and searched online for a hotel for one night. We wanted something near the beach and the Shelter Cove fit our needs. We were able to secure a very good rate (before they booked up, call... more

We stayed here for two nights for a business related trip. Check in was fast and pleasant. Our room (1 br king on the upper level) was bigger than I thought it would be. There was a full size closet, 2 sinks, fridge, and microwave. The ocean view from the room was quite impressive and the walking trails around the... more
