Anonymous, Dec 2024
The view of the Pacific Ocean was spectacular as were the sunsets! The customer service went beyond anything I’ve ever experienced which makes traveling so much more pleasant. The only concern, for someone in her 70s, was the base of the fireplace was a tripping hazard, especially with the furniture placement. I tripped twice and then put the trash can on that corner to make it more visible.

Mattresses are stained in the two different rooms we stayed in, some rooms have a foul odor, not worth the price being charged. Stay in Cambria instead.
