It was okay. The best part was we were 1 minute walk from the beach and in the room we were able to see and hear the waves from the room window (it wasn’t ocean view), but the cushion to see out that window wasn’t to clean (so I asked my husband to go to the car and grab our blanket from the trunk so I can sit down and read with that beautiful view and sound) and the fireplace wouldn’t turn on.

The property is in need of an update and major repairs. The carpet outside our room was so stained and dirty. We went pleased with housekeeping. They forgot us the first day and the second time didn’t refill the coffee. I was very disappointed.

More than I expected - truly delighted!
This charming beach side hotel was a true delight. It is exactly what we were hoping for...quaint exterior, fresh and clean with beautiful landscaping. The front desk staff was very friendly helping us learn a little more about the area. The room was spacious, the bed was quite comfortable and my room even had a fireplace!! I was thrilled with my choice and would definitely go back! You won't be disappointed!

HOW is this property rated at 8.4?! That is absurd! What kind of snobby, overly picky guests are writing this crap? My girlfriend and I found Pelican Inn clean, welcoming, comfortable and a perfect place to enjoy the quaint town of Cambria. If you are planning on traveling to Cambria and are considering Pelican Inn but are a little reluctant because of the low rating, take the risk. It's not the Four Seasons, but Pelican Inn should easily be rated 9.4. Thank you for such an amazing stay!

I didn’t feel the front desk was friendly! They are so concerned about the 4:00 check in. One of the front desk employees didn’t really make eye contact he was just too busy! The window seat covers were really stained and dirty. I asked the front desk for wine opener or glasses I could purchase. There weren’t any on site nor did they recommend where I might find the items. I walked next door to another hotel of which I was able to purchase glasses and wine opener. I have stayed at this property before the front desk staff were always pleasant and helpful.

I had ordered a room with a balcony with ocean view.. but I got a room with a window ocean view.. ask front desk to try to accommodate and find with balcony with partial full ocean view and I would pay extra but they said they couldn’t accommodate me.. I came from the Central Valley where it’s been triple digits and really just wanted to relax on a balcony with ocean view and feel the breeze and clean air
