We stayed here over Memorial day weekend and had a wonderful time.The views from the rooftop terrace are spectacular. The fire pit takes the chill out of the evening breezes. Nice breakfast to get you started on your days at the beach.

We stayed at Cardiff by the Sea Lodge on a recent visit to Southerner California. This was one of our stops on our PCH drive. We arrived early around 10:30 am and stopped by to see if we could park at the inn (check in time wasn't until 3pm). The staff was so friendly and welcoming. We were told our... More

Made a last minute choice to extend a business trip and got a nice room here. Its a quaint inn with ocean views, decent rooms, jacuzzi and fire pit on the rooftop deck for watching the sun set over the ocean, or the surfers catching waves. While the overall experience was very good, I notched down my rating because the... More

This location is very nice to stay with your spouse. It is cozy and affordable. We stayed using a Groupon February 9th and 10th in the Garden View room. Originally we booked the Lattice room, but we called ahead and asked if it was okay to view the other deluxe rooms and premium rooms if available upon arrival to upgrade.... More

We had a horrible experience. We checked in, and lobby was seriously lacking as was the front desk service. Once shown to our room, we found a dingy and extremely outdated space. I wasn't so turned off by the outdated aspect as I was the dirt. When my husband and I went to bed we both felt as though we... More

We were only able to stay one night but wish we had planned to stay longer. We had a very relaxing stay at Cardiff by the Sea Lodge. The room was unique and was very clean. The lodge was very quiet. We enjoyed the rooftop hot tub, the rooftop fireplace and the rooftop views of the ocean! Breakfast was great.... More

We retured, 7 years later, to our Honeymoon Hotel, and it was still delightful and a romantic place for us and others there at the same time. Rooms are quirky but delightful, everything is clean, but there is a small lack of attention to the details that shouldn't be there, given the prices. A light bulb out in the room... More

My wife and I had high hopes for Cardiff by the Sea Lodge but the website and our experience failed to live up to our expectations. The Pros: The beach: The only reason this hotel (not really a B&B) did not get 1 Star as apposed to 2 Stars is the proximity to the beach. The hotel is about 2... More

Interesting place; room was okay, certainly large enough. Bathroom was weird; it had a floor drain that gurgled while you used the sink. On site underground parking is great but tight.........No Suburbans here! Roof-top deck was great....fire-pit and super views; a great place to unwind with a glass of wine.....on second thought, bring the whole bottle. Easy walking distance to... More
