“Great place for couples, girlfriends getaway.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 February 2012

I recently returned from a girls getaway weekend at this wonderful Hotel in Cambria.
The facilities are excellent.The steam room took seconds to heat up. By the way there is also a separate steam room in the ladies room at the spa area in case you want to go au natural. The outside hot tub was a perfect tempurature and had NO SMELL of chlorine!!! It was a great way to unwind before our massages or just to gaze at the stars. We had Rene and Shawna for massages and I highly reccomend either one.
The breakfast which is included in the cost of the room was very adequate to get us started on our day .There is a wonderful walking path along Moonstone Beach right outside the hotel .

The rooms were large with plenty of light, nice fireplace,deep soaking tub and a bar sink. The rooms do not have refrigerators, but the staff will store anything you want in the main refrigerator in the lobby bar. Plus an ice bucket and our bar sink was enough to chill the wine we puurchased from our wine tasting adventure.

The staff here is very helpful and open to suggestions and requests.

I will definitely return, next time with my husband for a romantic getaway.

Room Tip: I reccomend rooms on the second floor in the back. With the window open you can hear the ocean.

“Very Nice Stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2012

person found this review helpful

All and all this was a wonderful stay, with a wonderful staff. Great little wine bar. Tapas were okay but nothing special. If they are going to advertise this as a Tapas bar they need more than just three cold tapas. The room was large, well decorated, with a great bathroom. My only problem with the room was we were on the first floor and under the second floor spa right under the Jacuzzi, made for not a very quite nights sleep. Next time we will opt for a second floor room. One note, when calling to make a reservation in the future they would not guarantee us a second floor room. Not sure if we will go back.

“Cambria at it's best!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012

We stayed two nights in Cambria at the El Colibri Hotel & Spa in January 2012. The accommodations were great and the staff was friendly. It was our anniversary and friends called ahead and ordered a cheese/fruit tray. The hotel staff sprinkled rose petals and chocolates on the bed with a personalized note from the manager! We could not have been more surprised or happy. Robes are supplied to access the 24 hour spa. Continental breakfast was nice. We will absolutely stay here again!

We arrived there on our anniversary week and were not disappointed, well a little because we had to leave the next morning for are drive to Mendocino. This is a spa/hotel with private parking underneath it. New and very nice.

“Shame we could only stay there for one night”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012

Very cure a romantic hotel.
Although it is situated just off the highway, the rooms are new and are equipped well enough to more than compensate for the location.
The staff was extremely helpful, offering us advise about what to see and where to go.
