My boyfriend and I visited and the location was beautiful. The staff was kind, and the free breakfast was nice. The view was perfect and Danial was very knowledgeable about the location and gave good directions.

Great find. Well priced, remodeled, hotel. Rooms are nicely furnished with a contemporary style. Awesome property with stunning sunsets. Lots of breakfast choices. Casual, evening wine tasting in the lobby. Great walk down some stairs to the cove for swimming, weather permitting, and tide pools.

This place is amazing! It’s located right in between Pismo Beach and Shell Beach. There’s many places to eat within walking distance. The rooms are very clean and well stocked with everything we needed during our stay. The robes were a nice touch. We had a great view from out balcony. Since it is a small hotel, we were able to conveniently park directly in front of our room. There’s swing chairs and fire pits in different areas on the hotel’s property. There’s small walking trails and even a private beach, which was a surprise as we weren’t aware of it prior to booking our stay. The breakfast was a full breakfast and the food tasted great. The breakfast room was not overcrowded. We didn’t take advantage of the pool or jacuzzi. This place has everything that you need for a perfect getaway as a couple of even with kids. We have stayed at many hotels and the price we paid for this room compared to what we’ve paid for similar rooms is a great value.

Inn at the Cove is a beautiful place to stay. The staff was very nice & our room was just like the picture. View of ocean is breath taking. I think every room has an ocean view. The grounds have lots of seating areas with cute rocking chairs to enjoy the view. You can walk down to the beach or enjoy the pool & hot tub. We had great time, look forward to staying here again. Oh, it was our anniversary & they gave us a cute personalize card & chocolate candy. That was so sweet! Our room had a microwave, little fridge. coffee maker with coffee pods and two wine glasses. They also have wine hour in the lobby and sell beer & wine. Continental breakfast was a very nice way to start the day.

Friendly staff, clean, views that go forever - what more could you ask for. My only complaint, and I'm nitpicking here, is the towels which could be softer and larger. Always enjoy our stay at this hotel. Away from the hectic pier but close enough to downtown. Definitely worth a try next time you're in the area.

We’ve stayed at the Inn three times so far and it will continue to be our choice for trips to this area. We like proximity to beaches for shell collecting, ability to walk on trails directly from the Inn, cleanliness of rooms and grounds, room amenities like coffee maker, mini fridge and TV, patio with high top and two chairs. Very modern and perfect for the beach with easy care flooring and large sliding doors very friendly staff and complimentary glass of wine between 4-5pm. Parking right in front of the rooms. Love the reclined swings around the property and weather dependent, the heated pool and hot tub.

Such a beautiful site and everyone so friendly. Our usual place just got too big and expensive, trying to be too fancy. This place is beautiful and still retains its smaller character. Not too fancy, doesn’t have the old world knick knack designer look. Just clean, polished and fresh feel, which suits us fine. Nothing beats sitting on the balcony overlooking the ocean with my love and a bottle of wine. Also the grounds are lovely and kept up so nicely. A real pleasure to stroll around. We just had a marvelous stay. Cannot recommend enough
