My husband and I traveled to Avila Beach for the first time for a wedding and thought the cute, little beach town was beautiful! We drove from Huntington Beach without our 3 kids and arrived at 1:00 p.m. and even though check-in isn't until 4, we were able to do early check-in, ate at the restaurant next door, The Custom... more

I booked a one night stay at Avila Lighthouse Suites upon recommendation from a friend. When we arrived at noon, I was able to check in (normal check in is 4:00 pm) and much to my surprise found they had upgraded us to an "Owner's Suite." On the map of the property, it is by far the largest room in... more

The grounds are very well maintained, The pool is small but nice.There is no place to rent umbrellas,chairs..Bring your own..The beach is great. This was a very quiet place that is... more

If you are without children and looking for a quite getaway you may want to think about other... more

Even though we were a couple of months before that in booking, everything was booked, and we ended up getting the rate through Expedia, but it was the same rate that was on their website...anyway it was extremely expensive for what it is, although what it is certainly is clean, roomy... more

We stayed at this resort the last week of July. We found the hotel staff pleasant upon check-in, easy parking in the garage and it was no problem getting our luggage to the room. However, I was not pleased with the room we were given. I reserved an 'oceanview' room for the week but our room was more 'partial view'.... more
