Overall everything was perfect. Property management is very proactive with text messages. The only glitch was a non working tv. Maintenance fixed it and worked perfect. Cambria is a pretty little town and the beach is gorgeous.

We were very pleased with the service and the room we received. We had requested an ocean view and received just that with a simi private patio looking across to the ocean. The room was very clean and updated. Staff were helpful.

Great Stay
Our family loved the Sea Otter Inn. The location is perfect. Just across the street from the beach and walking paths. The staff was so friendly and helpful. The morning breakfast basket was a hit with our kids, they were so excited to dig in! We plan to stay here again when we drive through Cambria!

Perfect location in Cambria, friendly staff and lovely breakfast basket. Rooms were very clean and beds comfortable. The fireplace took the Pacific chill out of the air at night.

Cute and convenient
Needed a pet friendly hotel in Cambria and chose Sea Otter Inn die to location on Moonstone Beach This is a cute little place that is extremely convenient to the little town of Cambria and just across the street from a gorgeous walking bath along the Ocean. Our room had a fireplace and was a great size. The property is small but cute. Breakfast delivery was included and the b-fast buritto was amazing! Bummed that our room wasn’t ready upon arrival time (3pm) had to wait as they were behind cleaning. Soda machine was broken and Mgr. Could care less. Door Dash unavailable to the area, so grab food before you arrive. Bathroom and fireplace are old and need updating but bed was comfy and linens nice. TV worked great, room was clean and the place was in a great location. We’d stay again .. but would bring an ice chest with beverages lol.

We had a very nice room, an ocean-view where we enjoyed looking at the Pacific Ocean. The walking distance from our room to the water was nice and short. Parking was great and safe. We definitely will return to this place again in the future.
