"The only thing separating the room from the ocean is a small wall and a grassy area--we left our sliding glass door open all night."

“In my opinion, this family-owned beachfront inn provides a comfortable base for exploring the central coast, with direct beach access and various room types, including some tailored for guests with dogs. The outdoor BBQ area and proximity to Cayucos' walkable downtown add to the appeal; however, remodeling may cause some disruptions. It could be a good option if you want a laid-back, family and pet-friendly place.”
