Top Cambria Hotel Reviews

Castle Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the layout of the property. Pool and hot tub towards the front lawn. The fire pit was a great chance to meet other patrons. The people at the front desk were all really really nice and helpful!!!!! Just a great 4day getaway !!!!!"

White Water

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed the concept of having a breakfast basket delivered to our room. It’s a lovely touch and makes the morning feel special. However, I think the breakfast selection could be more balanced. With three croissants, three sweet cakes, orange juice, and sparkling wine, the basket is heavily focused on sweets and pastries. It would be great to see some savory options, such as eggs, cheese, ham, or other protein-rich foods. Even replacing a few pastries with these items would make the breakfast feel more complete and satisfying. Overall, it’s a wonderful idea, and a little more variety would make the experience even better!"

Oceanpoint Ranch

8/10 Good

"Super cute pup-friendly stay! The rooms are spacious and the property is so quiet. If you’re someone like me who gets cold easily, bring yourself a space heater because the room only has a built-in wall AC fan. We enjoyed the proximity to the beautiful coastline and beaches. We were also close to downtown, which made venturing out easy. Highly recommend Linn’s for meals."

Pelican Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Wasn’t aware there was no elevator in the building we stayed in. Not a problem because we’re able bodied, but we got in so late (10p) and I wasn’t expecting to lug our stuff up one flight of stairs. Otherwise a beautiful property in a beautiful location. Right across the street from the beach, and a small street at that. The fireplace and location was what made me book here and I wasn’t disappointed. I love gas fireplaces in a hotel room. Somewhat overly large bathroom with a bench seat in the window. The sunken living room area was nice, the couch was hard as a brick and a fold out bed that we didn’t use. The TV was odd, but I think that’s just their cable provider. We travel with an Apple TV and the secondary hdmi ports could not be accessed with the remote so we had to unplug the main hdmi but that’s not really a problem. Parking was slightly awkward, but there were spots available even at our late arrival. Did not partake in their continental breakfast but it is nice that it’s available. Loved the area and would definitely stay here or at a few of the other lovely seeming properties on this stretch of beach. Balcony was a good size and the view from our room was fantastic. The blackout curtains aren’t on all windows so even when the two windows were blacked out it was still fairly bright after sunup. The downtown, just a short drive away. It was very cute and offered many options for food or drink, and very walkable."
