Besides the wonderful view, the best part of the Spyglass Inn was the wonderful office staff. They were very welcoming and helpful, and Heather even gave us clean wine glasses & bottle opener to take to our room. I highly recommend this hotel, and be sure to enjoy the fire pits overlooking the ocean waves!

Bed was very worn, carpets very frayed where it meets the tile. No dining or bar on site was a bummer. LOVED the pool n hot tub!!! Pool was heated n felt wonderful even in the morning. Next time would prefer the 2nd level only to avoid hearing every step from the room above
