The Cliff House Inn provides an experience worth the driving it takes to get around! The restaurant has great tasting food and the continental breakfast was perfect for what it is. The warm pool and lounge chairs situated at the oceans door can’t be beat. Actually sleeping with the waves crashing all night, no better sound machine on Earth! Thank you for the memorable weekend!!

What an amazing ocean front hotel for a minimal price. Enjoy the ocean sunset with a glass of wine. Keep your window open for an ocean breeze and the soft crashing waves. And enjoy a seafood/steak dinner at their little restaurant. Charming rooms and staff.

We love this place we almost don’t want to tell anyone about it! I do wish they had a hot tub though so that when visiting and the weather happens to run fresh there would still be an amenity to enjoy. It would also be nice if they offered a burger or something a bit more chill on the dinner menu too so that if you’re staying more than one night you don’t get bored of the same seafood fancy food! Like, we love fancy food, but sometimes you just want a burger 😂
