Perfect getaway

The front desk staff was phenomenal, especially Oscar, the receptionist, who made our stay above and beyond what we expected. The room was clean and comfortable and had a perfect ocean view.

Had a wonderful stay here. The 'inn keeper' was exceptionally welcoming and accommodating. Location is perfect, the room was great. Only complaints might be not having AC, which honestly in february we didn't need at all. The complementary breakfast was really nice, little bakery kind of coffee shop vibe on the roof. The rooftop setup/vibe is very neat as well, can just sit up there and watch the ocean all day. Such a hidden gem!

This was our first stay at The Inn and it will NOT be our last! The room was beautiful, bed was so comfortable, and the spa tub was icing on the cake. There is free pie and ice cream every night and free savory or sweet homade croissants and quiche in the morning on the roof. Views from there are breathtaking. We checked out bikes to ride and had the option to use sand toys or boogie boards, and beach towels, all complimentary. We were very impressed with this hotel. Staff was very friendly .

Everything is so cool about this property. The Inn is just across the street from the ocean - and the included breakfast is served on the terrace overlooking the pacific coast. The staff, including Piper and Oscar are truly personable and friendly. I highly recommend this place.
