The place is very cute, rooms are roomy with very stylish furniture and comfortable bed. The staff is super friendly and helpful from the front desk attendant to the cleaning staff everyone was very nice. The place feels very personable. I have to say the front desk is located in a room surrounded by big windows with excellent view of the ocean, great coffee maker that grinds the coffee beans and a comfy seating area where you can enjoy your coffee and breakfasts which consists of a natural juice (amazing choices loved the green and the carrot turmeric one) and a muffin. Loved the place dream of coming back ❤️
I had a wonderful stay at Cardiff by the Sea Lodge. The rooftop is incredible with a lot of seating options and the view can’t be beat. I loved the extra touches like a record player in the room and vinyl to borrow at the front desk. The newly remodeled rooms are very nice, stylish and comfortable. I appreciated the fresh juice options with a muffin in the morning and unlimited coffee/tea in the lobby. All in all, I hope to return again sometime soon!
The rooftop deck was a fantastic place to watch the sunset. Without firepits or heaters, it was a little chilly, but it was beautiful. The room was wonderful, and the staff members were friendly and helpful.

Our stay was very much tainted by the noisy gate that was directly below our room. Every time someone came in and out of the gate we could hear a horrible noise. We asked to move to another room. This new room was located over the “Shanty” which is a restaurant/bar for the local area. It was also noisy because of the music playing until at least midnight.
Our first room was also disappointing as the shower did not drain. For some reason the tv wasn’t working either.
We were booked for two nights ,but we didn’t stay mostly because of the noises.
