10/10 Excellent
"We really enjoyed our stay at this property! The value for the price was remarkable. The beach was directly across the street, and we even had a lovely view of it from our ground-floor room. It was exceptionally dog-friendly, which we really appreciated. There were poop-bag stations throughout the property, and the restaurant offered outdoor seating where dogs were welcome. They even brought our dog a bowl of water at the table—a thoughtful touch! We were also pleasantly surprised to receive an upgraded room and were given the choice of staying upstairs or downstairs. We would highly recommend this wonderful spot in San Simeon. It was a great value, in a fantastic location, and made traveling with our dog especially easy and enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again!"

10/10 Excellent
"I was very impressed with this hotel. From the moment we checked in, the girl at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. She also gave me a list of recommendations on dinner and other useful tips about the area. The hotel rooms were very clean and the bedding was nice and comfortable. We had asked for hypo-allergenic pillows which came right away which was appreciated. The hotel also has EV charging. One of the things that really stood out and made me write this review is they gave us a free breakfast picnic basket which had the best freshly squeezed OJ and sparkling beverage (forgot name as I didnt use it) for mimosas if you wanted to make, some fresh pastries from a local bakery, a fresh thermostat of hot coffee and a to go kit for the cream/sugar, and a blanket all inside the basket! We walked like 2 mins down the boardwalk and had an oceanfront picnic on a table. This was something I was not expecting but was a nice touch and something we felt went above and beyond. The hotel also serves smores at night, had some free wine, and had fresh baked cookies which were amazing! The hotel is also right across from the ocean where there is a nice boardwalk you can walk along the beach. They are also dog friendly which is big reason why we stayed there. I highly recommend this hotel for a nice get away! You will not be disappointed. Thanks for a great trip White Water!"
