Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were cozy, clean, and had all the essentials I needed, like a big TV, mini-fridge, microwave, and USB ports on all the power strips for my daughter's devices, which she absolutely loved. While the room might be a bit small for larger families, it was just perfect for my partner and me. The service was exceptional, with the staff being extremely helpful and even going the extra mile to clean our car, which was a nice touch. The location was ideal, just steps away from the water with beautiful views, although we couldn't fully enjoy the beach due to the cold weather. The dining experience was delightful, with breakfast being delivered right to our door at the specified time. Overall, a great value for what we received.
The hotel offers cozy rooms that might be a bit small for a family with more kids but are perfect for a couple. The service is exceptional with a delightful continental breakfast delivered to your room, and the location is pleasant for exploring Hearst Castle and the surrounding area. The dining experience includes a generous breakfast brought to your room every morning. Overall, a good value for money stay.
This B&B is a gem, with ocean-facing rooms and delightful in-room breakfast service. The rooms were impeccably clean and exuded a charming atmosphere, just steps away from the beach road. However, the dining options had some room for improvement in terms of variety. The staff went above and beyond to ensure a royal treatment for all guests, making the stay truly special.
My stay at this hotel was fantastic. The rooms are like little cottages, all on the ground level, so there's no noise from people above. They were clean and cozy with a beautiful view of the water, but the front-type door to the outside was a bit strange with some glass. The friendly service and comfortable room made my experience enjoyable.
Staying at the Windrush was a delight! The rooms were spacious and nice, right across the street from the main boardwalk and ocean, making it one of our favorite aspects of a B&B. The service was exceptional, with extremely clean amenities and a lovely continental breakfast brought to our room. The location was spectacular, offering beautiful sunsets and close proximity to the ocean, though the aggressive squirrels along the boardwalk were a bit of a nuisance. Overall, a great value for money stay with a few minor drawbacks.
