Sound proofing was poor and sounds from units on both sides and above could easily be heard, disturbing our stay

Room with a view.

Ett fantastiskt ställe. På parkeringen möts du av en av ägarens hundar som är överlycklig över att få träffa dig. Vägen dit är smal och backig men utsikten är fantastisk när du kommer fram. Rum med skjutdörr som du öppnar mot gräsmattan och bortom den ser du havet och soluppgången på morgonen. Acceptera erbjudandet om middag. Två anledningar. Dels riktigt riktigt god och dels vill du inte köra fram och tillbaka till något annat ställe i mörker.

Owner passionate abt the place and has made improvements to grounds. Internal area of unit dated but adequate. Loved the food. Only sound in the evening was the waves breaking on the rocks below.

Rooms were quite basic but the venue was spectacular. Sitting outside our room to have dinner was magic.

The view from the hotel is incredible! There is no direct beach access, however. The room was clean and well-appointed with a refrigerator, fan, private bathroom, and sitting space on the deck. The bed was comfortable. The resident dog and cat were incredibly friendly and well-mannered. The owner was very friendly and helpful. It would be a good idea to bring your own food and drinks as the owner doesn't open the Bistro every evening. However, I did not bring my own and the owner offered (and did) whip up delicious food in a very short time.

A very nice and contained Motel set at the end of an easy lane of the main road. Quiet and secluded, perched on the cliff top above the Pacific .. you see for miles. We roamed all over the site and down to the beach. Remember that the cooking facility is a set of rings kept under the sink

Magnificent location, connecting with nature, beautiful outdoor charcoal cooking back to basic entertainment area, waking up to beautiful ocean view and watching the sunset. Yes cooked outdoors, kids collected sticks to start the fire, we bbq our dinner and we played cards. Yes - seats and table are available there. Just be prepared to take your own groceries, shops are far away and expensive being remote. Roger - easy going and very accommodating owner of this motel. Hospitality is awesome! Absolutely recommend Lottin Point if you want to break away from a busy lifestyle and recharge. Yes we’ll be visiting Lottin Point again during the holidays ahead.

Fantastic hosts, fantastic stay!
