Grande chambre située au calme et proche de l'océan
Pros:

Nous avons séjourné dans une grande chambre avec des grands lits et nous avons apprécié que les lavabos soient séparés de la douche ainsi que la présence d'une cheminé, utile même en été!
Le logement est situé à 10 minutes à pied de la plage.

Cons:

Rien

Nice hotel near Asilomar beach
Pros:

This is a cute rustic hotel near Asilomar beach. They have a nice breakfast with good coffee, local pastries, fruit and hard boiled eggs. It was easy to check in and check out. The room had a fireplace and popcorn machine. We didnt use either but they were nice. We also had a refrigerator and a table which was great. We could walk to the beach which is why we picked the space.

Cons:

Our room did smell of strong scented cleaning products (one room did, the other did not). It was pretty expensive but comparable to other hotels in the area.

A contatto con la natura
Pros:

La struttura è davvero particolare e si integra perfettamente con l’ambiente circostante. È immersa nella natura, con daini e scoiattoli che fanno compagnia agli ospiti e spesso si avvicinano senza timore. L’esterno, rivestito in corteccia di legno come molte strutture della zona, contribuisce a creare un’atmosfera molto caratteristica e perfettamente in sintonia con il paesaggio.

La posizione è ottima anche per la vicinanza al mare e, a pochi passi, si trova un buon ristorante di pesce con cucina caraibica.

Il proprietario è schietto ma gentile, mentre le camere ci hanno colpito soprattutto per la pulizia impeccabile. Gli arredi sono piuttosto datati, ma forse è proprio questo uno degli aspetti più affascinanti: sembra quasi di fare un piccolo salto indietro nel tempo, pur rimanendo in un ambiente confortevole e accogliente.

Se cercate natura, tranquillità e pace, senza rinunciare alla vicinanza al mare, è sicuramente un posto da prendere in considerazione. Lo consiglio.

Vacanze in California
Pros:

La vicinanza all’ingresso della Scenic Drive

Cons:

Completamente da ristrutturare. Colazione scarsa servita in due ambienti diversi . Scomoda e con pochi tavoli. Avrebbe dovuto costare molto meno

We absolutely loved staying here and can't wait to come back! The staff was so friendly, the buildings were beautiful, and it was so special to have a fireplace and popcorn in the room. It was also just a quick walk to the beach, which was gorgeous!

Great location
Pros:

Location. Decent breakfast.

Cons:

The room was rustic and bed comfy. Didn’t use fireplace as the door wouldn’t close completely. The inner curtains need to be replaced or washed. The place needs some love…
