Friendly and helpful staff members, breakfast was good, room was well kept and organized, great view of the beach and easily accesible, amenities offered were exceptional
This is the best hotel I’ve stayed at in Pismo. The views are breathtaking! Celebrated our 10 yr anniversary here and enjoyed every moment. The staff was awesome, the room was clean, we had a great time in the pool and easy access to the beach. I will definitely stay here again!
There's no other property as unique as this one.And it's the only one that you can walk down to the beach.We keep coming here year after year.Amazing place and you could bring your four legged family members.
This hotel was a most pleasant surprise, the ocean view, the beach walk, the weather, all a perfect October trip.
Nice sized room, with all the amenities, overlooking the cliff to a beautiful walking beach. Perfect for fishing the surf.
Did i mention a free breakfast?
The SeaCrest is our place to stay whenever we plan a visit to Pismo Beach. Great place to stay, friendly and polite staff, clean rooms as well as the entire property.
We had a great stay the room and grounds we're clean the pool and hot tub we're great the beach was wonderful. The stairs to the beach we're a bit of a workout but we needed that anyway
The location is perfect. It was simply gorgeous while we were there.
The only downfall, and not the hotel's fault, was the people above us made so much noise. It sounded like there was a herd of cattle above us that kept pacing back and forth. Again, not the hotel's fault.
Lovely place to stay!
We stopped on a whim for a night in late September and just loved it: walk on the beach, dip in the pool and hot tub and sunset glass of wine around a table with a fire pit. Just lovely. Room was clean and comfy and off season made it very affordable.
