Capistrano Surfside Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Every staff member I interacted with was friendly and helpful. The suite was beautiful and clean and provided everything we needed for our stay. We lucked out and got a suite with an ocean view, which I understand is rare since those rooms are reserved for timeshare owners. Luckily, one was available and we got it. I would definitely come back."

"Very nice, boutique hotel to stay near the beach . It was amazing to hear the ocean when you wake up. The room is small, but the bed is king size and comfortable . Perfect for a relaxing staycation.
