Lovely, newly renovated room. Clean, quiet and comfortable. Gorgeous view of the ocean. Good value for what you get. There was a big bag of trash in the hall, which was odd. We would definitely stay here again.

Obviously mid-construction. Pile of materials in the parking lot near the entrance off Moonstone. Seems this could have been stored elsewhere. Broken blind in my room. Outside lighting glaring in the window all night. Blackout blind would have been appreciated.

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It is one of the nicest locations on Moonstone Drive. The staff was very accommodating and helpful. Make sure to take part in the wine tasting on the property if it’s being offered - great wine! Would come back to the same place the next time we visit this area.

Beautiful seaside retreat
I love this place & especially the rooms that have a walk-out private patio that gives the guest a view of the ocean & the sky any time of day or evening just across the street, where a seaside boardwalk is enjoyed by all. The grounds are a beautiful bouquet of fascinating succulents. The staff is generous, welcoming. I will return often.

This was our first trip to Cambria. We were pleasantly surprised that the partial view was VERY unobstructed. We enjoyed the living area to be able to relax during some down time. The noise factor from any other guests was never an issue. There were a couple SMALL dings in the ceiling and wall but nothing that couldn’t be overlooked. We look forward to coming again and would love to make this a regular place we stay.
