We really enjoyed our stay. Its a very good location and the staff is terrific staff (very helpful and sincerely nice). Room was large and we had a balcony that looked over the property and ocean. Nice spot to have a glass of wine before walking to dinner. Lots of excellent eating spots within a 10-20 minute walk.

First time stay. Sometimes you hope that what you read and see online will meet expectations. HarborView exceeded those expectations. Quiet charming hotel rooms, great pool. We dont get to SB much, much Harbor View is at the top of our list even though we commonly stay at one of the largest national chains. We were 6 adults in total including two over age 80 who found the hotel convenient given their limiting walking abilities. We will return.

Wonderful 1 night stay on our PCH road trip! We stayed in the North building of this hotel complex, which was furthest from the beach but still only 2 blocks away. We parked in a private garage on the lowest level, with a convenient elevator to our room. This is the newest building, and lovely In appearance. The decor is beautiful, and our room was clean and spacious with all modern amenities including a Keurig and a spacious waterfall shower. Our hotel was within walking distance to the beach, restaurants, and the wharf. We especially enjoyed our breakfast at Jeannine’s which was a short walk from the hotel. The pool was a little underwhelming, not as nice as the website pictures, and the lounger cushions are in need of replacement. And we did have to pay for parking. But all in all, we had a very nice stay.
