Top Stepladder Ranch and Creamery Hotel Reviews

Cambria Beach Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was excellent and location was great!"

Castle Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place to stay right across from the boardwalk which I enjoyed. The only thing U would say is that some of the guests hogged the fire pit for hours. We weren’t able to use it at all. It would be nice if they put a time limit for families to stay at fire pit so others can enjoy. An evening coffee and dessert bar would be nice since not much is open in evenings in Cambria at night. Other than those things the property was cute and clean. Would highly recommend it!"

Sands by The Sea

8/10 Good

"The staff was friendly. The place is older but nice and clean. The price is right. We would stay there again."

The breakfast was the perfect start to our mornings before our boardwalk stroll. I definitely recommend this hotel."
