Really spacious with a great view. The place has seen better days though and is a long way from its hay day. The view of the ocean and surrounds is great, the rooms have had a bit of a spruce up, but the entire property is probably not far off needing a massive renovation. For the price and for a night or two, it's all good.

Great property and great restaurant. Chicken schnitty was great. Room was the cheapest at $204. Bed was lousy. I don't love shower baths and this one wasn't in good condition. Nice dark carpet tiles. The blinds are not wide enough to cover 100% of the windows which is kinda funny and annoying. It was exceptionally quiet and access was easy from the freeway. No street noise as it's secluded. I'd spring for a better room next time and stay there again.

Opal Cove has potential to be great, but just seems to fall short on upkeep. It has improved since last time we stayed though, and I thought the gym was now above average.
