My wife and I stayed here over our Honeymoon weekend and the hotel itself was everything that we had expected and more. The room was absolutely amazing. We loved the in-room jacuzzi/ tub and the overall ambiance of the hotel was very unique. The service, however, was a very different story. It just wasn't there, especially when it came to... more

I was fortunate to stay at Avila's La Fonda Hotel. We stayed in a first floor jr. suite, which came equipped with a jacuzzi tub, king sized bed, fireplace, microwave, mini-fridge, DVD player, and large flat screen television. The room was absolutely lovely, with soft lighting and Latin American inspired decor. This was the first time I had every stayed... more

La Fonda has some nice amenities but no air conditioning. It was 104 degrees outside when we checked in, and it wasn't much cooler in the room. We slept with the balcony door open but that didn't help much, and it was noisy. If you're certain it's going to be very cool you're probably ok, but at $350/night it's quite... more

We just spent two nights at Avila La Fonda and, sorry to say, were slightly disappointed. We had stayed at the Avila Village Inn several years ago and were extremely impressed. Expected the same of this hotel. Pros: Friendly service, comfortable/clean rooms, free wine & snacks in the lobby, complimentary basket of snacks in the room. Great location. Cons: Noisy.... more

There is no denying that all the other reviews are correct about comfort, romance, and the wonderful staff, BUT when it is 65 degrees outside and 90 in your room with no Air Conditioning something is wrong! So here is the story. The building DOES NOT have any air conditioning throughout the entire hotel. Why no one has mentioned this... more

I was blessed to stay at this Hotel for an extended period. I haved traveled the world and must say, this is the best staff of ANY Hotel anywhere. They are not employees, they ARE your hosts. The rooms have every convenience possible, and let your mind think you never want to leave. Avila Beach is a hidden treasure of... more

This sister inn to the nearby Inn at Avila Beach is a little gem. The architecture is Spanish colonial, as is the decor. The owners missed little in carrying out the theme. We spent the night after attending a concert in Avila. I had been attracted to the inn by Tripadvisor ratings + advertised 30% off for Costco members. As... more

Wow, what a gem! My wife and I were anxious to see the central coast and attend a wedding at a local winery, but we had a difficult time leaving the room. James and Fred were terrific and very helpful with getting situated and made the experience even better. We plan to be back, no matter where we stay on... more

I live 10 minutes down the road from La Fonda, but wanted a relaxing weekend 'away'! It doesnt even seem right to call this a HOTEL... more like a home away from home...but nicer. The front desk is literally a DESK, very easy and comfortable. Checking in was easy, they have a great discount for any one with a costco... more
