We only had a single night here and wished we could have stayed longer. The room was very clean, large, and appeared to be freshly painted. The decor was very nice with a high-end feel. The people at the front desk were very friendly and helpful. We used the guest washer and dryer and they were clean and in good... More

Great family get away. Everyone enjoyed the suite, pool and closeness to the beach. What a great time. We will definitely go back to this hotel in the future when we want to be near San Luis Obispo. The service was excellent from all of the staff.

We rented a room for one night so we could have my daughter's 12th birthday party at the pool. Alyson checked us in and was incredibly helpful. She really went the extra mile to make us feel welcome. She is the BEST front desk clerk I have EVER encountered. Professional, accommodating, truly helpful AND sincerely cheerful! ALL this while she... More

California's central coast is still a bit of an enigma. With miles of pristine beaches, a native sea lion population, and encircled by wooded hills, this is a truly lovely place, enhanced by the recent explosion of wine production. Traditionally, the beaches have been host to downscale businesses, lacking the expensive resorts one might find in Carmel or San Diego.... More

Thank you for such a wonderful review. You have described both the beautiful Avila landscapes, as well as our favorite features of the hotel. After the town was rebuilt local businesses and residents worked together to provide all the necessities, as well as keep the town and beaches pristine.

My rating is 4.5 stars, but I'm rounding up. I was there for one night and was lucky to book the last available room. It happens to be quite a splurge for one night but this hotel has the best location. Rather than calling it a suite, you can call it a fair size, long room split by the restroom... More

Beautiful, right across the street from the beach, great place! Very kid friendly, great little town within walking distance. Excellent service. Breakfast is very good. The pool and spa areas are very nice and look out to the ocean.

I stumbled onto this hotel in 2008 and have since stayed there once to twice a year. Basically whenever I drive up and down the coast, I try to stay a night of three there.
