We loved our stay. Great views. Only issue was we did not request service and they came in the room. Having do not disturb signs would have helped correct the mistake that was made!

This place went above and beyond to make our stay exceptional. Martin called the day before our arrival and listened to my room request for my 95 y/o father. Danielle, was very welcoming upon arrival and made us feel like family. The entire staff deserves recognition on how well they maintain the hotel. The gorgeous location was perfect! The best part was sitting under the gazebo with a bottle of wine and charcuterie plate enjoying the sounds of the seagulls and serene setting. We'll definitely be back!

We stayed 2 nights-the hotel is really comfortable and our room had a gorgeous view over the pool and sea. Pismo is absolutely stunning and we loved everything. 20/30 minute walk along the seafront to the pier, or walk the other way along the coast and there are various cafes and general stores. We ate in Ventana grill which was great( recommend booking) The cove had wine tasting at 4pm which was free to guests. The breakfast was plentiful with waffles/ eggs sausages fruit etc While sitting by the hotel pool we saw whales and dolphins -a stunning setting we will never forget… paradise!!! X
