"The cabin was very nice. Unfortunately there wasn’t much for me and my family kids to do. They mentioned in the website that there were fun activities such as a pool, the pool was not working, it was very hot and the pool would have made it more enjoyable . Also, they mentioned there was basketball courts they were very old and no balls for us to use . Also it said there was miniature golf we did not see any clubs to be used. The beautiful scenery was a plus. We didn’t see a petting zoo. We...

The queen bed was very comfortable. We have booked from this host twice, and will definitely be back to this property. We were very comfortable. The property is quiet, and you can hear the waves crashing on the beach all night. Very peaceful."

"The views are breathtaking, the grounds and rooms are very well maintained, and the entire experience was charming! I fell in love with this place and will definitively return here with my dogs as this hotel is dog friendly. I believe that’s what creates such the welcoming vibe. The fire pits, pelicans and waves crashing on the cliffs created a soothing sound bath that was good for my soul. A total gem of a find and I’m grateful for the experience."

Pacific Inn

8/10 Good
"Older no-frills motel on outskirts of town but well maintained and clean. It wasn’t fancy but the price was right. Only issue was we asked the front desk if our room would be serviced and towels changed while we were out for the day. The gentleman at the desk said “yes, of course.” When we returned that evening, housekeeping had not been to our room. My friend went to the front desk to tell the gentleman on duty and he didn’t seem concerned. He just pointed to a cabinet in the lobby and said “there’s more towels over there.” No apology."
