Top Central California Hotel Reviews

Cavalier Oceanfront Resort

Cavalier Oceanfront Resort

10/10 Excellent
"This was our second stay here! The rooms face the ocean and it is a beautiful view! This is not a new Motel, however they have done their best to update it and it is very clean. One special note is they provide binoculars in the room for your use! Amazing! They also have a large grassy area with volleyball ball nets, huge checker/chess boards, outdoor fireplaces and a way down to the beach. We watched a surfer for a while along with people beach combing. Yes, you may see some rust, or wear and tear because of the coast exposure…..but it is worth it 100%."
