Blue Sail Inn

456 Embarcadero Inn & Suites

"Love it"

Pacific Shores Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic property. We were on the third floor and had an unbelievable view of Morro Rock. Manager was welcoming and a delight. A real gem!"

The Landing at Morro Bay

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our two night stay. The room was clean with a nice mix of unique amenities. The pour over coffee system was artsy and functional. Since it was unseasonably hot it was great to have an ac unit. The only shortcut I noticed with housekeeping was the short sheeting of the second queen bed. This is minor and wouldn’t prevent me from staying again. Lastly, super chill outdoor sitting area was a nice touch."

Back Bay Inn

8/10 Good

"Pretty little spot by the water!"

Sea Pines Resort

8/10 Good

"Decent place."
