“The positioning on the water is undeniable, offering captivating views and the unique soundtrack of resident sea lions. While the rooms themselves are thoughtfully designed with cozy fireplaces and a chic nautical feel, the comfort of the beds might lean towards the overly soft for some. Still, being able to walk to town for dining and enjoying the waterfront atmosphere makes this a compelling choice for a relaxing escape.”
