My family traveled here for a family reunion. We were coming in from different parts of the country, and there were 22 of us all together. I can say, without going into tons of detail, that we felt that we were met with hostility and a nasty attitude from the moment we walked in the door, as if we should... More

We stayed for one night on a trip from San Francisco down the coast to Los Angeles. It was a great place to stay, located right on the edge of the rocky coast where you could walk down to a private beach. The views were breathtaking - worth staying just for this. The lighthouse is also still a working lighthouse... More

Great hostel. Stayed multiple times. Nice common area and kitchen. Well run. Clean as a pin. Great option for a trip down the coast. Popular with bicyclists too. Highly recommended. Good staff. Will return again!

Best location EVER. Best view from the room EVER. The hostel is situation right on a cliff next to the ocean, with its own private cove and beach. Breathtaking! We had a private room: tiny, but well maintained, and (astonishingly) with a Tempur-Pedic mattress. We made good use of the full kitchen -- we bought a cooler of food with... More

How many places can you stay with your own lighthouse? The grounds were beautiful, the beach at your feet and our room was very small but adequate for our needs. The three of us shared a private room--double bunk on the bottom, twin bunk on top. Outside our room was a little entry way with access to a single shower... More

I stayed here 3 nights in the dorm - and was happy to call this home. The locaiton is great - right on the ocean and i saw a whale spout the first day i was there. Lovely grounds, big kitchen. Even when there are lots of people staying there you have room to move around. Excellent coffee - espresso... More

I have not stayed at the hostel but here I find a small beautiful beach. If you drive in this area you can have a bed for only $22 plus tax.

Could not have been more pleased with this hostel. Gorgeous view with private beach. Rooms super clean and very peaceful. Small, but inviting staff! Very worth it!

Youth hostels are not what they used to be when it is time to saving money. We paid 105$ a night for a tiny private room that was very clean and comfortable, but it was basically 3 beds. There was a well equipped kitchen and the view of the light house and the coast was fantastic. Free Wi-Fi Internet. The... More
