Please read the guest reviews below to experience our resort through the eyes of your fellow travelers. 

My wife and I stayed here for 2 nights from Boston to celebrate our 25th Anniversary. This was our second time visiting Pismo Beach. Last year we stayed at the Inn at the Cove (also gave it 5 stars). The Seacrest was perfect, staff was very friendly, rooms were clean and modern, balcony had amazing views and the self-serve breakfast was great.

  • Loved that it had stairs that access the same beach where the pier was.
  • Firepits were awesome for the April nights.
  • Rooftop lounge area was really cool and private.
  • Deluxe king with ocean view and balcony is worth the extra money.
  • Acknowledged the temporary credit card fee and praised the beautiful place.

This is an amazing hotel with the best views on the coast! The rooms were large and very clean and modern and reasonably priced (especially for the views you get!).

  • Private balcony with incredible views of beaches, city pier, and rocky coast.
  • Perched on a cliff with stairs leading directly to the beach.
  • Walking distance to restaurants.
  • Favorite hotel on the Pacific Coast highway journey from Napa to San Diego.

We could hear the waves crashing on the beach and never shut the balcony door unless we left the room. The property is gorgeous, our ocean view king overlooked the pool and the ocean beyond.

  • Upstairs balcony with a perfect view for sunset take-out dinner.
  • Comfy bed, spacious room, and retro-style bathroom.
  • Helpful front desk, especially Aaron.
  • Despite late reservation, an amazing experience.
