The room was nice, everything was clean. The bedding and pillows were very good quality and the bed was very comfortable. The office staff were very nice and helpful. The location is perfect, the view is great, they light bonfires with a view of the ocean every night at sunset

The room smelled dirty. The hot tub wasn't working and that was the whole reason we chose this hotel. No microwave in the room. Long waits for any service. We will not stay there again.

We loved everything about our stay at the Cavalier Resort especially our room with its fireplace, patio and ocean view. The staff was friendly and attentive, and we liked the convenience of a restaurant at the property. The surrounding area is serenely beautiful, and we will be look forward to our next stay at the Cavalier Resort in San Simeon.

Martha

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The room smelled. The bathroom floor looked like it hadn't been swept, dirt and hair in the corners. The facuet leaked water on the counter. The 2 chairs in the room were so worned out i had to put a pillows or sink and hit the wood. The only reason I'm writing this is I stayed in the same room last year and it was the same. Very poor housekeeping, I even had to complain about mold in the refrigerator last year. I didn't open the refrigerator on this last trip
