Peaceful and charming

It was so peaceful and charming. I highly recommend if you need a retreat from your busy life. Across the street is the most beautiful ocean views and walk path. I took three walks a day.

Cambria CA Stay April 2025

Our stay at Sea Otter Inn was a good one overall, with a few hiccups due to miscommunication. When we checked in, we weren’t informed that room cleaning had to be requested a day in advance. As a result, our room wasn’t serviced while we were out, and we returned to find breakfast items left behind, which we had to clean up ourselves. We also had to request additional towels since none were replaced. Despite that, the room itself was comfortable and very clean upon arrival. The location is excellent—just steps from the beach, with easy access to hiking trails and great dining nearby. One big plus for us was the electric car charging on-site, which was super convenient. The breakfast, delivered to the room each morning, was a nice touch, and having coffee available throughout the day was appreciated. The staff was friendly, and aside from the room servicing issue, everything else went smoothly. I would recommend Sea Otter Inn, especially for those looking for a cozy stay in a beautiful area; just be sure to ask ahead about housekeeping!
