Only place to stay in the Half Moon Bay area.
The only place to stay by Half Moon Bay. Such a comfortable room, bed, bathroom & living room sitting area with a real wood fireplace. Great outdoor patio sitting area, heated pool & large spa. Walkable to some restaurants, the beach & bike/walking path. Great continental breakfast. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

The area around has lots of wildlife to see birds, seals and bunnies! The ocean water was not safe to swim in due to high bacteria levels. There are great restaurants and shopping nearby. Nice walking trails and destination.

I really loved the ocean view rooms, because you really were able to look out and just relax while watching the ocean. Rooms were very nice and came with nice amenities. I would return back to stay here again.
