What a terrific location! On the bluff overlooking the beach and the breakers...112 steps to the sand...very pleasant grounds. Walking distance to several restaurants and a nice dive bar. Wonderful staff! EVERY room faces the ocean and the sunsets are spectacular! There is a small refrigerator in the spacious room! More

Each room has a great view of the ocean, could hear the surf all night and this is a plus for me. Beach access is through a long stairway. Older hotel but well maintained. Great grassy area around pool and hot tubs. Rooms are a little small but if I stayed for several days would only sleep in the room... More

Unsurpassed ocean view from atop the mesa. Beautifully maintained grounds. Older motel very well maintained. Nice, clean rooms. Well priced. Great outdoor pool with 2 hot tubs, comfortable even when weather in the 60s. Free light breakfast. Free access to adjacent health club complete with weight rooms, indoor lap pool, indoor hot tub, racket ball courts, outdoor tennis courts. Very... More

The view from the room is amazing, the gorgeous sunset and the sound of the ocean - fantastic. The staff was very friendly. The room was clean and the bed was comfy. However, the hotel is older and the decor is outdated. The water in the shower did not get hot, they provided a teeny bottle of shampoo for 3... More

Every winter we leave the Oregon coast and go to Pismo for warmth and sun. We always seem to find it, and we always stay at the Kon Tiki. We have stayed in different rooms over the years, and all offer spectacular views, and private sun balconies facing arguably the best cliffside plateau view of close-by Pismo Beach pier and... More

I stayed 2 days in this wonderful hotel with my family in December 2011. Everyone agreed that Kon Tiki Inn was the best hotel we stayed during our 3 weeks vacation. The hotel looks like a motel but in my opinion it has the standard of a 4-star hotel. It is located right off the beach and every room faces... More

SO GLAD WE STOPPED HERE. We checked several oceanfront hotels and they were either too expensive or not friendly or didn't have two queen beds. We decided to check just one more and WOW. The Kon Tiki Inn is the BEST place we found on our whole 3 week trip to California. It was so nice, that we stayed 2... More
