This is such a great spot in Avila Beach. I’m a local and I took a vacation here about 20 years ago with my family and I remembered it being such a great trip and having so much fun and thinking it was a nice hotel and returning as an adult now 20 years later it was even better than I remembered. Really nice spot! My only reason for giving 4 stars regarding the facilities conditions was because the spa was quite sandy and murky, but we are right across from the beach and there are a lot of families with young kids that stay at this hotel, so do with that what you will. They had a dj though when we were there and live music another night at the pool area so that was awesome. Highly recommend and will be back!!

Property was great. They have beach chairs and sandcastle toys. The breakfast was better than any other hotel breakfast including fresh cut fruits and different breads. Pool and hot tub were great. Location perfect for a beach pool day. Hotel was very busy! Rooms a bit outdated and small bathroom

Beat the traffic and parking nightmare by just staying here. Right across the street from the beach and super easy to access. Wish I got to enjoy the hut tub but it was filled with kids and for an adults only trip I skipped that part. It was Mother’s Day weekend I will add lol. The breakfast was good, the property is nice, the rooms are big, I enjoyed my stay

Hotel was in great location. Had an oceanfront view. Bathtub and bath sink were old and dingy. Pull out bed needs better mattress. Breakfast has lots of options but food you could tell was frozen. Kids did love the waffle maker.
