Inn at the Cove

10/10 Excellent

"I loved how the beach is right there and all the places you can sit and relax"

Shell Beach Inn

10/10 Excellent

"In the last 3 weeks my wife and I have stayed in 5 different hotels due to weddings and vacations ect and The Shell Beach Inn was probably the best out of all 5. This includes pricey hotels near So Cal theme parks. The amenities were just thoughtful and the room was very clean. The bed was definitely the comfiest out of all 5 hotels. Within walking distance to great restaurants and a beautiful park with a gorgeous view of the ocean. We will definitely plan on staying here when we return to Pismo!"

"The ranch was fantastic for our family. We had plenty of room and the kitchen was equipped with so many great appliances and everyday dishes. The outdoor area was good for relaxing. There were turkeys every day for our grandson to watch. So fun. So peaceful and quiet. Perfect place to celebrate our daughter’s wedding. Will definitely go back."

Shell Beach - Capistrano Cottage

10/10 Excellent

"Exceptional property. Well equipped for cooking and relaxing. Loved walking down the street to the ocean where everyone gathers to watch the evening sunset. Melissa thought of everything one might possibly need. I really appreciated the thoughtfulness that went into our stay."

Avila Pismo RV Resort and Campground

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely property, friendly check-in staff. Great location right near the Bob Jones trailhead. My only notes are that the cabin i stayed in is a bit rundown - the mattress could be replaced, the bedside light had no outlet, so was just ornamental, and the tv in the bedroom didn’t work. Other than that, great stay!"
