    Since obviously that one star rating review, one below mine didn't have enough gumption to provide photographic proof of their "torturous stay" , I will mine, and as you can see, her review DOES NOT fit the rest of ours, and I wouldn't say the decor is vintage at all, I would call it seaside cozy; it's so cozy in fact, and the hospitality is so welcoming, unlike other hotels I've stayed in, that you can't find anywhere that I've ever stayed in in my entire life (and I've been to a lot of places), that I wouldn't stay anywhere else in this town. David, the owner, is such a down to earth, breath of fresh air, I've NEVER ran into a hotel owner like him. This place is only 5 units big, but each place pretty much has its own little cart port next to the room, plus every day David makes sure he gives fresh baked goodies from the Italian Bakery there in town, and juices and sodas in your refrigerator. Now what hotel would do that for you? None that I've ever seen or been to. And this was my mom's SECOND time in a row staying here. We stayed here at the end of October, I've just been super busy that I forgot to get my review up. Sounds like SOME people has too high of standards. Every single place we ate at here was amazing in Cambria, and every person we ran into was AMAZING. Seriously, this is one of the best hidden gems in California besides Carmel and Solvang. I told David I would be back many times over. He also has a SLEW of DVDs he lets u check out, and watch in your room and every room has its own electric fire place, and VCR/DVD PLAYER. Also, as far as the microwave is concerned, it's a small teeny tiny microwave that's literally big enough for the hotel room, what honestly do you expect? A large stove top microwave? How much food do you expect to heat up while staying here? Good Grief. And by the way, it's pretty darn powerful. I didn't have a single problem with it. Oh!!!! And we met his maid and she was EXTREMELY nice and thorough. She was neither lazy, nor did the minimum. Every room is also decorated differently. And I thought the sheets and beds were EXTREMELY comfortable, updated, and made nicely. EVERYDAY, at that. Not to mention, that David went out of his way to provide us with the most affordable rates even if it meant that he took a pay cut. Thank you David for such an AMAZING experience. We will be back. Guaranteed.

    Moonstone Landing - Nice clean comfortable room

    Moonstone Landing

    I've been vacationing here for years. This year we splurged and paid a premium price for an ocean…read morefront view. We enjoyed our stay and all the front desk employees were extremely polite, helpful and accommodating. The room was very clean. The fireplace is easy to use and extremely effective. However, I would like to make a few suggestions on how to improve the experience of staying at Moonstone Landing for all your guests: First, please provide your guests with 3-ply, SOFT toilet paper. The cheap, one-ply toilet paper this hotel uses was horrible to use. If you're asking guests to pay premium prices for these rooms then at least provide them with decent toilet paper. Second, please consider investing in NEW, comfortable outdoor patio chairs with accompanying foot rests. The chairs you have now feel cheap and uncomfortable. Third, I would jazz up the "average" continental breakfast. It's the one thing hungry guests look forward to every morning and the pastries provided leave one underwhelmed and still hungry. Linn's cheese danish pastries are delicious but the other two muffins were "meh". The boiled eggs are fine. I think adding a variety of cereals would be appreciated. Maybe provide granola bars? Fourth, I know renovations are costly. But at some point you'll have to redo the stone flooring in all the bathrooms as the long cracks in the stone initially make a bad impression. Again, we enjoyed our stay and I would recommend this hotel. As a long-time patron, I'm offering my insights in the hopes you'll make the necessary changes to stay competitive and continue to draw in new guests.

The staff were super friendly and accommodating, just as I remembered. The rooms themselves looked like they had been renovated. The bed was comfy. There was a huge wall in shower and jacuzzi tub. The old school fridge was super cute! Of course, you can't beat the views from the oceanfront balcony room!

Are room was perfect two large queen beds that were so comfortable and linens that completed the whole scenario . They have a picnic basket with beach towels and blanket. And at 8:00 in morning they delivered fresh pastries , coffee and orange juice. Very nice touch. Perfect room for the amount of time we were in it. I probably would have got a suite and room to have some more space. But other wise everything was perfect. Also we had waited till last minute to book room and had four of us and dog. Felt very lucky to get such a nice place.

LOVE the Aesop products in the room!!! a few downside during my stay were: the few times i went to the front desk, the "out of office" sign was up each time. i wanted to rent a bike to bike around the town, no one was around to assist. i waited about 10-15m each time. they have a fire pit that was on the entire time. i heard they provide s'more kits, but we were not provided with any. there isnt really any pet relief area on site. also, all units do not have AC, only fans. i had no service while i was there. i literally was on SOS. i actually loved it. don't worry, there is wifi avail! i would def book white water again!

We only had one bed, so I slept on top of the couch...it was comfortable enough and I slept well. A simple breakfast comes with the room. I highly recommend this property for a comfortable stay.

    Our home for the next few days at a really cute and cozy inn right off the oceanfront…read more Unfortunately, we did not get a room right off the street but we still get some stunning views. The inn is located on the state beach access road with the other small inns. This location is only two floors and we got the 2nd floor in the middle. The lobby is cute and offers complimentary coffee in the morning and tourist information (where to go and what to see). Our room is nice. It came with two queen beds with a mini bar/kitchen. We have a Keurig machine and complimentary cookies and water bottles. There is no central air but a ceiling fan to cool off the room. There is a faux decorative fireplace to warm up the room and to make it a bit romantic if you are staying with your significant other. Bathroom has a shower and is pretty good in size just like the room. There is a complimentary breakfast each morning and you can order one meal from the selections. Anything extra is an additional $5. Food is good and service is quick. If you are here for a couple days or just spending the night, this is the place to. Be. You are conveniently across the street from the beautiful ocean and there are some cool and popular restaurants a few doors down like the Sea Chest. Plus, it doesn't feel like one of those big chain hotels and feels like a home away from home. Happy staying!

Bathroom had a huge mirror with fantastic lighting around the rim. Husband enjoyed the free fresh brewed coffee from the lobby on one of the outdoor benches. Just cross the street to an amazing walkway along the ocean cliff, with steps down to the beach. That evening we walked to a nice restaurant about 2 minutes down the road. Views there were equally beautiful. Would definitely stay there again!

He told me I cannot check in until 3 pm, and it was 2:45 pm. We left and came back. The next person at 4 pm on Saturday, July 4th, told us we could have our room cleaned and when we would like to schedule the room cleaning for Sunday. I told the person at 1 pm. When we came back after being away for the day, our place was not cleaned! I went to the front office and asked to have our place cleaned. The person at the desk, at the time 2:30 pm, told me we did not request the room cleaned because we were not on the hand written lined paper list. I told him that was not true as the person grabbed the paper when we checked in and wrote our room and time to be cleaned. The pool, not working and empty. The hot tub had too much chemicals and my skin itched like crazy. I stayed here many years ago and was always greeted with a friendly voice and granted early and late access even when I would pay. I will never stay here again. Maybe the people are not gay friendly... not sure. Bye, bye! Next....
