“Super experience!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed April 1, 2012

I just returned from a one night stay at this gem and will definitely make plans to return. I especially liked that it is quiet and out of the way but also within walking distance to the beach and the Miramar restaurant as well as the Bach Dynamite Society place (probably got the name wrong). Breakfast was just perfect and also having a Keurig machine in the room was a nice touch. I really am just echoing what others have said...
The owners are very interesting people and authors as well! They have so much enthusiasm about the area it is infectious.
Truly a gem in bed and breakfast land.

Room Tip: We were in the Mountain room and it was very pretty - decorated in burgundy tones. I imagine the ot...

“A really solid B&B, very well executed”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 20, 2011

We found the Pacific Victorian to be even nicer in person than in photographs, and all the major elements were really solidly done. When we were there, the weather was cold and rainy; but the Inn is warm, dry, snug, modern and comfortable. Rooms were great for sleeping comfortably. (OK, so we always bring our own pillows and blankets for local/car travel.). The hosts have a great hosting personality and were quite thoughtful. Breakfast, while not fancy or glamorous, was just what we wanted: healthy and tasty. Location was very nice. A short block walk to the beach. No noise from the foghorn that you might read about for some of the other places in the area. Also, the other Inns nearby on the oceanfront required 2-night minimums while Pacific Victorian did not. Just really well-executed and we felt that what we got for the price was a very, very good value. One could recommend to a friend or colleague and feel they were in good hands.

Room Tip: If traveling during the time of year of longer daylight hours, ask which rooms are in the back versu...

“Cute place, great location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 16, 2009

Pacific Victorian is an adorable little bed and breakfast just a block from the beach. My girlfriend and I were offered wine upon our arrival and cookies later in the evening. The owners are really friendly and extraordinarily helpful -- we were loaded up with maps, brochures, etc. The rooms are also loaded with perks, such as satellite tv, a tub with whirlpool jets, robes, a mini fridge and the fanciest coffee maker I've ever seen. It's even got wifi access, which allowed us to plan our weekend better.
It's not in the downtown area, which we actually liked because it was more quiet and closer to the beach. Highly recommend it!

“just an OK place”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed September 13, 2009

We spent a long September weekend here recently. The owner, Jeff, and his wife were great. They were very helpful in pointing us to day trip sites and even kindly lent us a field guide and binoculars for our bird watching trip. There is an extensive DVD collection and lots of movie channels offered on the tv. The location is great in that it is blocks away from the ocean and within walking distance to an oceanfront restaurant, however not so great in that our room lacked a good view and the noise from the highway was evident when our windows were open. The room was clean but somewhat small and the common areas kind of small. Breakfast was average (great seasonal fresh fruit, but main dishes were somewhat simple).
