Hotels with Bar in Balboa Peninsula from $241

"Great location and a strong meetings/events team, but the overall hotel experience lacked consistency during my six-night stay. I facilitated a leadership programme in the Glasshouse and the support there was excellent throughout — attentive, professional and well organised. Unfortunately, the wider guest experience felt less polished. The fitness room repeatedly ran out of towels and cups (even after feedback was given), water bottles in the room were not replenished, linens were not changed during the stay, and some outdoor areas were left uncleared for days. None of these issues were major individually, but hospitality is often defined by attention to small details, and those details matter. There is a lot to like about the property and the team were always pleasant, but the hotel would benefit from greater operational discipline and consistency across the guest experience."

"The Little Inn was ideal for our quick beach fix. Walk to the beach or the bay. Walking distance to many restaurants (a little noisy during the late evenings but no more than any hotel on the beach). The staff was very helpful with dinner suggestions and on site parking was a blessing for a busy beach."

"Incredible hotel!! Wow!!"

"Friendly front desk staff! Jame is helpful, professional! Easy parking, amazing beach view!"

"I stayed here while celebrating my birthday at the beach on May 4th, 2026, and was looking for a comfortable place that wouldn’t break the bank. I was pleasantly surprised by how clean and well-maintained the property was. The booking process was quick and easy, and having parking included was a huge plus. Overall, it was a great experience—I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others."

"Couldn’t really see beach from Hotel but it’s only a block away and they have bikes you can use to cruise the beach bikeways. Was a lot of fun and enjoyed the location. Had a beach basket with towels and a frisbee, could also get cornhole to take to beach. Really quite fun and the place was simple yet very clean. "
