Top The Spa at Dolphin Bay Hotel Reviews

Cottage Inn By The Sea

8/10 Good

"It is a beautiful place to be; right on the bluff! I like the fact that you can walk along the bluff and go down to the beach via stairs. The stairs are pretty easy to maneuver so need for worry there. The pier was within walking distance as well. There were some really good restaurants in Pismo Beach. We recommend the Italian restaurant for sure. the name is Guiseppes (not sure on the spelling). And you have to have one of the cinnamon rolls at The Old West Cinnamon place. Delicious!! It's very relaxing place and that's what we went for. I would stay there again. I recommend a first floor room as the fire pits are outside your room and you can hear the waves all night."

Main & Salt

8/10 Good

"The mattress moved around when we moved. The staff was great and helped me out by giving me a converter to charge my hearing aids."

Inn at Avila Beach

10/10 Excellent

"great stay"

Edgewater Inn And Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was well maintained. Staff was friendly. I left an expensive item in the room. I received a phone call. I was very glad for that phone call. I got my property. It could have been really bad. Very pleased."

Sandcastle Hotel on the Beach

10/10 Excellent

"The room was great, the staff were awesome, to purchase drinks and breakfast was very expensive, better variety on the menu would be good also ."

Avila Pismo RV Resort and Campground

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely property, friendly check-in staff. Great location right near the Bob Jones trailhead. My only notes are that the cabin i stayed in is a bit rundown - the mattress could be replaced, the bedside light had no outlet, so was just ornamental, and the tv in the bedroom didn’t work. Other than that, great stay!"

Spyglass Inn

8/10 Good

"Older property showing its age outside but interior of room was clean and well appointed. Outside asthetics were a bit disappointing as the Front building of property was under renovation but not disclosed at the time the reservation was made. Motel is in a good location on Shell Beach. FIREPITS by the bluffs were a BIG plus and are available on first come first serve basis."

Shell Beach Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean and in place. Not a giant room but perfect for the one night stay of us. Property was nicely maintained and landscaped. Front desk called us and set up our check in, went very smooth. Walking distance to restaurants and the beach. Would stay here again."

Avila La Fonda Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were exceptional. I hoping this means they are treated well. They have perks all day long! Croissants and coffee every morning, nachos at lunch, wine and cheese and meats at 5 and pies at 8! We never went hungry."
