Find another place!
When we arrived, there was no power anywhere in Cambria. The manager (at least she said she was) was sitting in the dark. It was a chilly night and power wasn't expected until 3am so we didn't want to stay if there wasn't going to be heat. She promised she would refund the money but it never happened. They can't seem to be reached by phone. No one answers and there is ability to leave a message. Highly disappointed in them and I don't have any recourse because I booked through Expedia and they can't reach anyone there, either. I would NOT recommend. They have disappointing reviews for other reasons as well. I should have taken those as a warning to stay away from this place. If you are reading this, you have been warned.

We were initially disappointed with our room, as it featured a jacuzzi tub positioned adjacent to the bed with no privacy, open to the main space. When we asked about room service for the following day, we were informed that it must be requested at check-in—a detail we hadn’t been made aware of. However, Kerri went above and beyond to assist us. She kindly offered us an alternative room (with a tub) that had a fully enclosed bathroom. Her extraordinary accommodation and helpfulness turned what could have been a disappointing experience into a truly enjoyable stay.

The stay was amazing. Greeted immediately by staff. They advised me that the elevator wasn't working, but luckily I didn't mind the stairs since my room was by the stairs on the second floor. Also on the second floor is their Wellness Center, it includes a steam room, showers, hot tub, and massage rooms. You need an appointment for the massages, but the rest of the amenities are first come first serve. They were amazing, the steam room felt wonderful and the hot tub is great with a view of the night sky. My room was clean, very spacious, comfortable bed, the fireplace gives a beautiful ambiance and heats the room up. The bathroom was clean and roomy, shower has shampoo, conditioner, and body wash if you forgot yours. The tub was huge, you can fit 2 average sized people in it. In the lobby you have beer and wine on tap, you do need a separate key card and are charged per pour. I didn't get one, but it looks cool. Now the breakfast in the morning is coffee, oatmeal, pastries. Nearby, there is a boardwalk that leads you to the beach, which the walk alone is scenic. Overall, my stay was relaxing. A good mental and physical recharge.

The power went out about an hour after we checked in. No light or power to finish getting ready for a night out. Can’t go out with wet hair in November. Could not use the spa or anything else without pier & could not order food for dinner or go out to dinner. Room was a complete fail! Places like this should have backup generator’s for their customers or give a partial refund or free night stay.
