We had a wonderful time for two nights at the Spindrift Inn, the location on Cannery Row is perfect. The valet parking was great as we had been traveling for over two weeks and had accumulated quite a bit. The staff was amazing and whenever we needed the car it was really quick. The daily wine and cheese was a nice touch as was the daily breakfast delivered to the room each am. Would absolutely stay again.

Our corner king room with a fireplace was perfect! Falling asleep to the waves was just what I needed. The room was perfect & a charming hotel. I do have to say though, the outside and the beach were underwhelming.

We have been to the Spindrift several times and enjoy the location. The staff is friendly and helpful and the rooms are clean. We enjoy 4:30 wine and cheese in the lobby and meeting other guests. It’s also nice to not have to worry about parking your vehicle as they have valet parking.

This is a nice hotel with great views (ocean view side). I took off 1 star due mainly to the breakfast being a little disappointing. The pastries were small and seemed like the plastic wrapped kind you might get at a convenience store, and overall the options were pretty limited.
