We stayed at San Luis Bay Inn with our timeshare and had a great time. The staff at the hotel were friendly. The grounds well kept. A large selection of activities at the hotel to occupy our time. We tried to spend as much time out and about as possible but we have an 18 month old son so at... More

We exchanged thru Diamond for a 4 nite stay. If we aren't sure of the area, we don't go for the whole week, just in case. We were very pleased with the resort and the unit. Too bad the weather didn't cooperate, but we can't control that. The Barn by 101 had lots of fresh fruit & veggies (bit pricey)... More

Beautiful grounds. Room was very clean, comfortable and well-decorated. Views were spectacular IF you own a timeshare. If you're just booking a stay as a guest, you're put up in a room facing another wall with zero view of anything! Very disappointing and we were not informed ahead of time that ocean view rooms are for timeshare holders only. That's... More

Be sure to bring your swimming suit, you will want to sit in the heated jacuzzi or swim in the pool overlooking the bay. The room was very clean and quiet and the king sized bed was very comfortable - so much so that we decided to spend another night. The staff were all very friendly and made you feel... More

....arrived three nights ago exhausted with the intent of sleeping and napping with light exercise and freedom from thought of the swirling world outside. The room was sparkling; the kitchen and bath well stocked with tools and amenities; the view from the little patio was of the bay and the pier. ....slept well, did a walk around in the morning,...

We stayed here for a week in a 1-bedroom condo. Our room faced the beach so we could hear the waves hit the shore and see a great sunrise. The rooms were spacious and the staff was friendly and helpful- especially Kevin the concierge. Our daughter came for 2 days and stayed in one of the studio units which was... More

We had a one bedroom suite with a nice view of the beach and pier. We enjoyed watching the sunrises and sunsets. We had no complaints about the room but it would have been nice to have been on a higher floor. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. I enjoyed the jacuzzi tub on several occassions. We all enjoyed... More
