“Very Nice Pet Freindly Place”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 23, 2012

We took a last minute trip here to enjoy a couple days with our Navy Sailor home on leave and our Labrador. I really can't imagine being any happier. The room was very nice...not super fancy, but very nice. Only pet smell came from our own dog, happened to rain while we were there :-). The place is right on the beach...great coffee shop just across the street and lots of pet friendly restaurants nearby. This would be a very good place regardless...but, if you have a dog in tow, it is perfect. The service was excellent...room nice and location is perfect! Worked great for us.

Room Tip: The rear building has the best views...but anything is good and the people at the desk are really he...

Thank you for your review of the Shoreline Inn. We are glad you and your family had a wonderful time and that you enjoyed our rooms. Many of our guests enjoy bringing their four legged friends, since Cayucos is a great pet town with lots of pet friendly restaurants and of course, the beach to play with. Please thank your Navy Sailor for his/her service to the good U.S. of A. We hope to see you and your family again…on the beach.
Sincerely,
Laila Kollmann

“Can't Ask for Much More”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 22, 2012

We used to stay in Pismo every year just before the holidays start but once discovering Cayucos no need to drive further. The hotel is right on the water and the rooms are good sized with ocean views. As others have mentioned dog friendly, reasonable rates and friendly staff all in a centrally located spot make this a winner. Park the car cause there's no need to drive once the sun sets, We'll be back.

Because of its mild climate, quiet towns and beautiful beaches, the Central Coast is the perfect Winter-Getaway place. Thank you for mentioning our ocean views and staff. We are very glad that you had a wonderful time and will see you again soon

“A would rather keep this place a secret.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 21, 2012

I almost don't want to tell my fellow travelers how good this place is...but I will (and will keep it simple). Perfectly located on the beach, unobstructed sunset views, clean and remodeled, friendly staff, reasonably priced, dog friendly with treats, breakfast in the morning, warm cookies and coffee in the PM, walking distance into town for dinner.

I have found my new favorite hotel on the Central Coast and can't wait to come back.

Cayucos is one of the last secret getaways in California and we are glad you found the Shoreline Inn. Cayucos sunsets, especially in the winter, are wonderful and our guests love them. Thank you for not keeping us a secret. We will see you on the beach.

“Great Value”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 12, 2012

Cayucos is a sleepy little town. We love it! The Shoreline Inn is right on the beach. Price is beyond reasonable, almost cheap for what you get. Clean rooms. Most have been updated. Friendly staff. Most rooms have a full ocean view.

We are so glad that our different room types fit your needs. The beachfront rooms are smaller as they are standard size, but they are right on the beach. We do have larger accommodations that are loved by many of our guests that are set back just a little bit further with varying views and number of beds. Come back soon to enjoy another vacation in our little town
