    Front entrance to the lodge

    We came to Cambria for a one night stay at the pines lodge. We purchased the Pines Lodge Christmas package. You get one night stay at the Pines Lodge and access to the Cambria Christmas Market, one parking spot on property and breakfast the next day. Our stay included access to the full market including light displays, vendor booths and food booths. The Lodge is located in Cambria. The Christmas market and lodge are located on the same property. The rooms at the lodge are like cottages with very modern amenities. The inside is very nice. We stayed in a King large suite. We had two fireplaces, a mini fridge and a microwave. Our room was right next to one of the entrances of the Christmas market. We were just a few feet away from it, which was so convenient. We also had a balcony that looked over the Christmas market light displays. There was parking all over the property. We were able to find one right by our room. Breakfast was also included. It was a buffet style breakfast that was good. Our room was lovely and very clean. It's very quaint and cozy. My only complaint was the bed. It was extremely uncomfortable. I didn't sleep at all because of it. It seemed old and overused. There were imprints of where one would lay down, beach side of the bed. So when you lay down on it, you sink into a whole. It was awful. They need to replace that. If you have a sensitive back, the bed will be a problem for you. The check in and check out process was flawless. I did the pre check in and check out online. I highly recommend that. We were given a parking pass, breakfast pass and bracelets for entry into the Christmas market. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I would love to return to the Christmas market next year but may opt to stay somewhere else because of the uncomfortable bed. Hopefully they will update their beds in the near future.

    Black Mold above shower

    This property was a place my family visited about 10 years ago, and we enjoyed it so much that we've always hoped to return. Unfortunately, our recent stay was a very different experience. Major mold problem in room 815 Stay: May 1st-3rd, 2026. On the final morning of our stay, we discovered what appeared to be black mold above the shower. Because my parents are immunocompromised, we immediately packed up and left. We reported the issue to the front desk at checkout, and the staff member said he would inform management. As of Monday at 1:26 p.m., we have not received any follow-up. Overall, the property has significantly declined and is in need of major updates. The handrails leading to the building were broken and unstable. The furniture is very outdated, and the beds were extremely firm and uncomfortable compared to what we remembered. Several features required maintenance fireplaces were difficult to operate, our front door would not close properly, and our key cards stopped working after the first day, leaving us with only one functioning key despite following all handling instructions. The restaurant experience was inconsistent. Friday night was excellent, but on Saturday there appeared to be a change in chef and bartender, and the food preparation differed noticeably from the menu (for example, the mushrooms). Service, however, was good on both nights. Due to the serious health concern of discovering mold in our room, the lack of follow-up from management after reporting it, and the overall decline in the property's condition and maintenance, we do not feel comfortable returning. Issues with safety, such as broken handrails and a door that would not properly close, along with inconsistent amenities and service, made this stay far below our expectations. What was once a place we loved and looked forward to revisiting no longer meets a standard we can trust, especially when traveling with vulnerable family members.

    This property is one of our favorite spots in Cambria Ca. to stay. The location is picturesque and the grounds are kept absolutely beautiful. The units have recently been repainted on the exterior. The restaurant is located off the main lobby area as well as a lounge. Food service is absolutely phenomenal. The courtyard area is beautiful. You can dine there as well. Just a beautiful place to relax and enjoy your meal. There is a swimming pool on this property and so many things to do within walking distance. The only problem was that our shower and sink had drainage issues that needed attention. We were left standing in water while showering. The interior of the units need TLC to include updating in all areas of the unit we were in. Cob webs greeted us at the entry door they had to be swipe away before opening the door. Stair wells also had cob webs which could have been easily removed by maintenance or house keeping. I still feel it's 5 stars because of staff , location , property, and the beauty of the grounds.

    Was at a wedding here. So beautiful. All staff, super amazing except one lady at check in that seemed to hate being there. The venue was perfect. Great food and drink. Rooms $$$$$ but quiet and wonderfully appointed. Quiet. With a view. I'd go back. In forest just miles from the beach. Moonstone... Just serenity here with a beautiful pool, gardens... Live music nightly!!!!

    Gardens everywhere

    I cannot say enough good things about the lodging here...there's so much to do and included, basically everything you need to have a great, relaxing time. Gorgeous grounds, spacious pool, spa, trail to town, and beautiful wildlife, we saw deer during our stay here, it was a magical experience! The restaurant is delicious, we got the steaks for dinner and they were surprisingly perfect. You know how it typically goes, hiked up prices ufor mediocre food for convenience. Not here, everything seems carefully curated to provide the ultimate experience!

    I visited here stayed 2 nights the Christmas extravaganza here is absolutely amazing with glittering lights galore! I truly appreciated all the hard work to create this Christmas light amazing huge display of fabulousness! We strolled around for hours then the dining & bar area had live music, it was such a delightful holiday time with my son! The cottages are amazing here with a feel of true comfort with the fire place warmth! I plan to return this December with family!

    King spa suite #519
    Debra R.

    One of our go-to places to stay on the central coast. Our latest stay was in a king suite spa tub room, with two fireplaces, two tvs, micro, fridge, full couch, lovely wooden furnishings which was reasonably priced in February. Grounds are lovely, especially their gardens behind the lobby/lounge. We have stayed here several times in an upstairs unit with a view out over the valley.Their Christmas lights are a must, but book early. Restaurant is great, the lounge has a happy hour and live music. You can walk down the hill to town, and its a great spot to stay if touring Hearst castle, or checking out the elephant seals ten minutes up the coast.

    This was my first time staying here and it did not disappoint. The grounds are so pretty and lush. I was here for a wedding and it was very memorable. The complimentary breakfast is from 7:30a - 10:30a and offers a nice selection. The rooms are comfortable and have a fridge, microwave and the ability to make some coffee. The lodge sends pleasant text messages and many of the features can be done electronically (including check out). Check in is after 3p and check out is before 11a.

The Seacrest Ocean Front hotel is an absolute gem. From making the reservations over the phone to check in, the customer service was great. This hotel is very well kept and has free parking. However it does share with a restaurant at the entrance of the driveway so it can get full at times. Luckily, we were always able to find a place after coming back from a day of exploring. Beds were comfortable and the deck was perfect. We even had a seagull perched on the ledge on our last day. But let's talk about the view. It was absolutely STUNNING and worth every penny. This hotel does not have an on-site restaurant or bar, but you can get room service from the restaurant at the top of the parking lot. They also have a a bartender working outside of the lobby and she was so nice! Friendly and funny and just a great attitude. They offer $10 towards room service or drinks daily, which was nice and parking is free! The grounds are manicured beautifully and they have a pool and two hot tubs which were always in use. They also have several lawn games and direct access to the beach. I've never felt sand so soft under my toes. Next time we'll bring our beach chairs and make a full beach day of it. I absolutely loved this hotel and will definitely be coming back.
