Location was convenient and close to restaurants on Moonstone Beach Drive. Hotel is located across from the ocean with easy access to a scenic walking path. The hotel is very well maintained. My room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. Coffee is provided in the room and in the lobby. The breakfast was phenomenal with several options offered. I would not hesitate to return and recommend it to my family and friends.

It was a nice facility. The check in was easy and the lady at the desk was very helpful. I drive a Tesla and the on site destination charger was convenient and worked well. We’d definitely stay here again.

Clean and newer rooms. Linens and bathroom amenities were nice. Great view and loved the sounds of the ocean at night. Having breakfast delivered to the room was a nice touch (just be aware if you pick 7:00 am delivery time they are on time lol).

Sweet little hotel
Wonderful hotel with sweet little details like cookies in the room and real creamer for the coffee. The lady who checked us in was a bit curt. But honestly everyone working in the entire town seemed annoyed by the large crowds. I think employees aren’t prepared to handle the influx of people coming in to their cute little Christmas town. Too bad…it soured the trip a bit. But we will return, perhaps just not during the holidays

This is the first time staying at the Sand Pebbles Inn. The property is clean, the rooms are very nicely decorated and comfortable. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. My only complaint was the pilot light in the fireplace in my room was flaming (so you could see it) in the fireplace. Apparently the pilot light remains on to heat the room with the wall thermostat. When I turned off the lights in the room to go to bed the flame was so prominent that it was flickering so you could see the flame dancing off the walls. For a person that needs a room really dark to sleep, this kept me up all night long. I regret to say that I hardly slept at all. Had I known that this was the case I would’ve asked for another room. I will definitely go back but I will never stay in room 200.

Amazing Inn! This property exceeded all of our expectations. We were graciously allowed to check in early. The room was tasteful and immaculate with an electric fireplace and a cute table and chairs allowing us to enjoy the stunning ocean view from the wide shuttered windows. We also took advantage of the tiered outdoor seating area with an unobstructed view of the ocean and beach area. One of the biggest surprises was the included breakfast that was delivered to our room at a time we specified. There were eight choices of breakfast burritos or breakfast bowls. Freshly made and hands down the best hotel breakfasts we've ever had. Started each day on a positive note. Front desk staff were friendly, helpful and added to the all around fantastic experience. We will absolutely be back to the Sand Pebbles Inn in Cambria. Visit this gem of a vacation spot. You will not be disappointed.
