Be sure to bring your swimming suit, you will want to sit in the heated jacuzzi or swim in the pool overlooking the bay. The room was very clean and quiet and the king sized bed was very comfortable - so much so that we decided to spend another night. The staff were all very friendly and made you feel... More

....arrived three nights ago exhausted with the intent of sleeping and napping with light exercise and freedom from thought of the swirling world outside. The room was sparkling; the kitchen and bath well stocked with tools and amenities; the view from the little patio was of the bay and the pier. ....slept well, did a walk around in the morning,...

We stayed here for a week in a 1-bedroom condo. Our room faced the beach so we could hear the waves hit the shore and see a great sunrise. The rooms were spacious and the staff was friendly and helpful- especially Kevin the concierge. Our daughter came for 2 days and stayed in one of the studio units which was... More

We had a one bedroom suite with a nice view of the beach and pier. We enjoyed watching the sunrises and sunsets. We had no complaints about the room but it would have been nice to have been on a higher floor. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. I enjoyed the jacuzzi tub on several occassions. We all enjoyed... More

We enjoyed our stay, however we really wanted an ocean view. We reserved 8 months in advance and are timeshare owners, however not owners there. We had two other couples with us that booked through the intranet and got rooms facing a wall. As a timeshare resort, it definitely takes care of its owners first, not always a bad thing.... More

We just came back from a 1 week stay in Avila Beach and the San Luis Bay Inn. The Inn looked well-kept with soft carpets and was just painted. We exchanged through Diamond Resorts International. The DRI concierge was very helpful. Apparently our 1 bedroom room wasn't ready (don't know where it was located) so we were put into an... More

My husband and I spent 5 nights at the San Luis Bay Inn. Because of some of the less than positive reviews I was a little concerned. Thankfully, we had no reason for concern. Our room on the 5th floor had a wonderful view of the bay. It was comfortable and spacious. We had two flat screen TV's; one in... More

My husband and I were traveling with my 82 yr old Mother and sister and had requested a 2-bdrm ocean-view room. Our accommodations were great! Only downer was that we were at the very end of the building and a distance from the elevator, but the view was spectacular! We had 3 mule deer grazing on the lawn below our... More

We reserved a week at San Luis Bay Inn in Avila Beach, near San Luis Obispo from Dial an Exchange (DAE). The resort sits alone on the hill above the town & harbor overlooking the bay. DAE’s & the resort’s webpage directions were simple & accurate. We drove our camper from Sacramento stopping overnight near Monterey Bay to visit the... More
