Amazing views and nice room. The only issue we had was the bed was the firmest I have ever encountered. Not good for side sleepers. Won’t be booking again for that reason alone.

Loved it!

First time there. Loved our Ocean Front room. Slightly disappointing was the small breakfast eating area. Also, I told the staff lady that the oatmeal was gone and she didn’t do anything about it. Other than that… great stay!

The place was wonderful! The room was well appointed. Plenty of room to store luggage. However they were having issues with the coffee maker and the coffee in the thermos was just warm not hot. Otherwise everything was fantastic!

Hotel is very quiet and clean, rooms are decent size, small pool and hot tub area. If you are looking to be able to walk downtown Pismo for restaurants and activities I would not recommend.

The views from the rooms are amazing. Access to the cove with smaller private beach for guest is also a plus. Only thing that would keep me from rebooking here at the beds, solid rocks.

Great Location

Stopped to stay one night here in our drive back home to Northern CA. We live to stay in Pismo and this was our first time at Inn at the Cove. We lived our ocean view room AND the comfy bed. This place is awesome! It offers a great breakfast and wine tasting in the afternoon. The staff are very friendly too! I lived the walkway along the cliffs overlooking the beach below.
