Our stay at the Fog Catcher Inn in Cambria was absolutely wonderful. The ocean views, cozy fireplace, and relaxed coastal charm made it the perfect getaway. The staff was warm and welcoming, and the easy walk to Moonstone Beach made every morning feel like a dream.

The room was comfortable but needs upgrades. The front bedroom window lock was missing so we were unable to lock it. The wood has degraded around a lot of the windows. The paint job was very poorly done in the bathroom.

Room was clean but could use a coat of fresh paint.Staff was friendly and helpful. We found out about no complementary bkfast after the time to cancel expired.It wouldn't have mattered to us, Extra charge for internet upgrade and charge for Fiji Water is chicken crap. A resort might be able to get away with this but not this place.

Best access to Moonstone Beach was directly across the street from the Inn. Staff, especially June, went out of their way to make our stay a memorable experience. I would definitely recommend the Inn.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Room was not clean, the shelf to hang your clothes looks like it had never been cleaned, excessive dirt, there was someone’s headband and hair ties left in the shower and it was also not clean. There was a fireplace in the room, but the glass on it was so black you couldn’t see the entire top half of it. Needs some serious updating and cleaning. Way too expensive for what we walked into. I would not stay at this location again.
