This is probably the best place to stay in Encinitas, but I have one complaint. I wish they'd renovate the bathrooms. Even little fixes like new shower heads & faucets would help.

We sure had a great time here on our three day visit. Close to wineries, walk to the beach, great local restaurants interesting shops. We really liked the nice breakfast with fresh fruit plate each morning. Really good fresh bakery items too. Nice comfortable room. Not fancy, but comfortable. Beach chairs, umbrellas, etc all available. Truly nice people, too.

We just returned from a few days in Encinitas where we stayed in the Penthouse Suite at the Inn at Moonlight Beach. The suite was very well appointed with a very comfortable bed and a nice balconey including a hot tub with a partial view of the ocean. We enjoyed every minute of our stay, loving both Encinitas and the Inn. The breakfasts provided by Ann were really exceptional with fresh baked goods and fruit each morning. I believe that they were the cuprit in my gaining a few pounds during the trip!

The Inn is located within walking distance of downtown Encinitas where we enjoyed the street fair, some nice stores and some great restaurants. Ann and Terry's restaurant recommendations were spot on. While the train is close by, we found that we barely noticed them so don't let that prevent you from staying at the Inn. We enjoyed Moonlight Beach but really fell in love with Swami's so be sure and take time to go there.

The Penthouse is very private but Ann is always available to answer questions. All-in-all a very good value for the excellent accommodations.

We stayed at the Inn for 4 nights with our daughters while visiting family nearby. Ann was very accommodating and made us feel at home. The room was very clean and spacious especially with 4 of us sharing the same room. Breakfast was delicious - something different each day. We will have very fond memories of our time at Moonlight Beach. PS The train was a non-issue. Yes, you do hear it the first time but it soon became part of the atmosphere.
