The location is amazing situated right next to the ocean with a large pool and good restaurant on site. The room was spacious and comfortable although it could use some touch ups and updating. We needed a microwave and hair dryer as well as some toiletries like lotion.The complementary breakfast on Sunday was a freshly prepared, complete meal. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

We spent 2 nights oct 2025 for our Anniversary. When you walk in to check in the ocean view is incredible. Yes its an older Inn. I do wish they had a microwave in the rooms. But the view was jawdropping. Seeing dolphins and seals was a joy. Heater worked fine and it was wonderful to sleep listening to the ocean. We cant wait to come back.

Total hidden gem just off the 101 in Ventura. Feels like a time warp in the best way—think ‘60s beach motel meets vintage Hawaii. Super peaceful, no road noise, just ocean waves right outside your window (which you can actually open!). Rooms are clean, vibe is chill, views are unreal. Great dinner spot downstairs and free continental breakfast. Only gripe: no in-room coffee and none available till 7:30am. Still, I’d come back in a heartbeat.

Ocean visible from room. Due to shared parking with restaurant, it is somewhat an issue. Second time staying here. Second time dealing with power outage and internet issues. Guests sat outside until 7:30 when power was restored. Some guests reported that power went out at 10:30 a.m. we checked in after 3:00 and was told the power was out but expected to be back on any minute! Obviously, that was not the case. Front desk staff does not seem able to handle these issues. Cleaning staff and restaurant staff friendly. Pool is heated but temp is too high. Not refreshing! It’s a nice place if you want to get away and relax but be prepared for anything!
