Top The Spa at Dolphin Bay Hotel Reviews

Inn at Avila Beach

10/10 Excellent

"It had a lot of things to keep you busy and the staff was friendly"

SeaCrest OceanFront Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing perfect"

Main & Salt

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay. Everything matched the photos online. Ian was incredibly helpful every time we needed him (he helped us park when it became tricky; he gave us a key before we had finished check-in so that my daughter could use the restroom—he was just helpful in every way!). We loved being so close to the beach. We'd definitely stay here again!"

The Tides Oceanview Inn and Cottages

8/10 Good

"It was nice, quiet and clean"

Avila Beach House

8/10 Good

"Great location to beach, wind protected pool and Jacuzzi, great free breakfast, well designed and functional room and bathroom. Decent balcony with chairs and small table. The second floor view of the ocean is much better and for those thinking the first floor has better access to the pool, they have large walled flower beds in front of the patio with signs don't walk through."

Pismo Lighthouse Suites

8/10 Good

"We upgraded to a two bedroom suite in the old Shore Cliff side of the Pacific Point hotel - the newly refurbished room was beautiful and our balcony had the best view I've ever seen anywhere in the world - absolutely spectacular. Loved spending time on it and saw dolphins and whales. Beds were comfy and we slept well. On the downside, the kitchenette wasn't well equipped or easily useable - it had a microwave and large fridge but loads of practically empty cupboards (no cutlery, very few pieces of crockery) and - most bizarrely - no sink to wash up in! We'd brought some deli food for dinner but as there were no plates we had to eat out of some small coffee cups we found and when these were taken away by housekeeping the next day, they weren't replaced. When we requested cutlery from reception we were given plastic knives and forks which were pretty useless for chopping and not great from an environmental perspective."

Avila La Fonda Hotel

10/10 Excellent
