Great location (cross from Moonstone trail). The room was clean & updated. Front desk crew were very friendly. You pick your breakfast the night before and they deliver it to your room in a basket following morning. Very cute gesture. We will definitely go back.

Nice small hotel, friendly staff, easy and quick checking in/out. Love the morning basket breakfast delivery in front of the room but wish there would be more choices (ex. Scrambled eggs instead of just hard boiled eggs). Comfortable bed, clean bedsheets and bathroom, wooden floor so no old carpet odor. Although we don’t use the pool and hot tub since it’s a bit chilly they need more maintenance. Convenient walk to the beach (less than a minute). Quiet, relaxing and beautiful scenery. Will definitely be back.

We loved everything about the Sea Otter Inn. The picnic basket breakfast delivery was adorable and the food was just as good! I think the only negative thing I could say about it is that the bed we had was a bit uncomfortable.

It is quaintly charming, old-fashioned, but well-kept. The Pacific Ocean is across the street with a wonderful boardwalk to enjoy the scenery. We love the funky fireplace that is thermostatically controlled! We slept almost ten straight hours so that tell you about the quiet and peace. A lovely breakfast burrito arrived in a hanging basket outside our door. We are going back for our anniversary.

The property is nice, older, but acceptable. remodel of bathroom, the cupboards were missed but that is understandable as I am familiar with remodel. They could be improved, painted, our had lots of nicks. Shower turned on the rain down with cold in beginning, understand, limited options in older place.
