Top Elephant Seal Vista Point Hotel Reviews

Cavalier Oceanfront Resort

Cavalier Oceanfront Resort

10/10 Excellent
"The room was a little dated, but clean and spacious, the views were spectacular. The broken edges of the fireplace are a safety hazard and i scraped my toe when shutting the door around midnight. There are not too many choices of oceanfront hotels in San Simeon. Everyone was nice, the food at the restaurant next door was great. The hotel gave us a bottle of champagne after we checked in, a nice surprise."
