Sunset inn was perfect for our mini vacation just before 4th of July. It's located in Pacific Grove right by Asilomar walking distance to the beach. Very quiet and beautiful. We arrived just few minutes before check-in time. We're able to get our key almost right away though the room itself was not ready yet. The management team was very helpful and friendly. We're able to park our car right across our room. The little cottage is very dainty. It's fairly equipped with microwave, mini frig, fireplace. Bathroom is a bit small & lack of counter space. Overall a beautiful place and easy drive to Monterey, Carmel as well.

Already Planning Our Next Stay!

Nice stay at the Sunset Inn. Very clean. Friendly staff. Room was nicely updated and maintained. The common areas are super clean and very maintained. The only thing that was slightly disappointing was the free breakfast, would have liked to see better fruit selection like cut melon and a pastry or coffee cake instead of donuts. Overall, great place and we will definitely be back!!

Pros: Clean room, nice bathroom and close to walking trails on the beach Cons: Smaller room than expected, light all night, bed and sheets were not comfortable, noisy (could hear people’s conversation in the next room very clearly). Office/lobby very cluttered and messy, poor selection at breakfast, and no Wi-Fi or cell service.

Rishi was very helpful and super polite. Snacks were provided throughout the day in the front office including flavored water, tea and coffee. Parking is limited and that is the only downside. Apart from parking, I would definitely stay here again.

Both shower and jetted tub were excellent. The fire was nice even in June for those of us from the South. The bed was very comfortable and the cabin was very quiet. Yhe continental breakfast had more, and varied, options.

We had a great stay at this inn! From the moment we arrived, the property manager Rishi was incredibly friendly and welcoming. He even let us tour three different queen rooms and pick our favorite. All were clean, but we chose the one upstairs that felt a bit more spacious. The location is excellent—less than a 10-minute walk to the beach and a short drive to the beautiful Lover’s Point Park. The bed was moderately comfortable, just fine for a short stay. The only downside was the lack of soundproofing. The listing on Expedia mentioned soundproof rooms, but that wasn’t really the case. Most mornings, we could hear nearby construction work clearly through the walls, and one night we heard a family next door with young kids. It wasn’t a huge issue, but something to be aware of if you’re a light sleeper. Overall, it was a great value for the price, and we’d happily stay here again!

Well...We drove into the small parking area and someone had scattered her wardrobe all over her car. At first we thought she was homeless. But, she was staying there. We were given a parking spot that extended out car into the street. So, we demanded a better spot. So, the manager gaves us his spot in close proximity to our room. The room was clean and the bathroom was fabulous. The shower head was wonderful. The inn dosent "wow" you. We didnt spend a lot of time in our room. F Y I...This is not a discounted experience.
