Pelican Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"The property was lovely, comfortable and clean but most noteworthy was the kind person who checked us in and was eager for us to have a perfect room and everything we needed to enjoy our stay. They went above and beyond for us. Can’t recommend them highly enough!"

FogCatcher Inn

10/10 Excellent

"I had a really lovely stay at FogCatcher Inn. The property is quaint, peaceful, and has that classic small-town charm that makes Cambria so special. It’s directly across from Moonstone Beach, which made morning walks and sunset views absolutely beautiful. The location is a huge plus. The room itself was very clean, which I really appreciated, though the property does feel a bit outdated in places. Parking was easy and stress-free, and the overall atmosphere is super quiet and relaxing, perfect if you’re looking to truly unwind. They are also absolutely pet friendly, which is a huge bonus. That said, the WiFi could definitely be stronger, and the amenities are fairly minimal. But if you go in expecting a coz stay rather than a luxury hotel, it really delivers. Overall, a charming spot in a beautiful location. I’d absolutely stay again. "
