Home away from home
Reviewed By JBGuilletWe had a really nice stay. The property is well kept and the staff was friendly. It's central to wine tasting and other central coast activities. The dinner in their restaurant was good, although my filet was a bit overcooked for my taste. They replaced it without a fuss. Service was excellent and the location can't be beat.

Wonderful Hotel
Reviewed By BasildonShrewLovely hotel, with amazing views. When we booked it said room had partial sea view. View was simply stunning, particularly at sun set. Staff were really helpful as well. Nothing was too much trouble. Would highly recommend. My photos simply do not do hotel justice.

Great views
Reviewed By Manny-CClose to Route 101 when visiting Hearst Castle (about 1 hour North), this is a good place to stay and eat. Rooms fairly standard, clean and comfortable.

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1636 reviews
Why stay near the beach when you can stay on the beach? One of the best features of our Pismo Beach hotel is the oceanfront address, as well as our central location just steps from the Pismo Beach Pier, downtown restaurants, and Oceano Dunes - the only place in California where you can drive on the beach! Enjoy bold, beach vibes during your stay at our oceanfront hotel in Pismo Beach, where you can slip into relaxation mode from the moment you arrive, flip flops optional.
Nice place with a few design flaws
Reviewed By susancM2713KHThe room at first glance was great - large, clean, airy, room to move around, etc. Bed was comfortable, windows gave a cross-breeze, air conditioner worked. On second glance, I had some questions: 1) why does the toilet feel like it's from an elementary school? Very low to the ground, nothing to grab onto. 2) shower floor tile is an accident waiting to happen. If you don't use the rubber mat, which is stored under the wash basin, or put down a hand towel, you are going to slip and find yourself unable to get back up with no safety rails nearby. 3) great little coffee maker. Why is the only wastebasket located in the bathroom, 20 feet away? I think some designer got the vibe correct, but the practicalities were overlooked.
9. FogCatcher Inn
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 2752 reviews
FogCatcher Inn is an oceanfront gem located across the street from beautiful Moonstone Beach. Our coastal décor is as fresh as the ocean breeze that flows through our hotel in Cambria, CA.

Beautiful hotel
Reviewed By robin19651965This was a fantastic experience. Be sure to be there to see the sunset. Great location, very spacious rooms. Even had a fire. Extremely friendly staff. I would urge anyone to stay here, such a fantastic find, half way between Carmel and Santa Barbara

Nice property right overlooking the beach
Reviewed By 700scottfThis is a quaint oceanfront boutique hotel just minutes away from the Pismo Beach Pier. It’s well maintained & has a nice area to walk the beach & enjoy a fire pit by the ocean. By only issue was that I assumed for $450/night an Oceanfront Queen would have a balcony. Small windows looking out at the beach was a bit underwhelming.
