Summary: Room and bathroom were great, loads of space and a great view of the beach from the balcony. Staff all polite and friendly and the valet parking works like a dream. Breakfast was quality and plentiful. Would prefer a proper bean to cup machine for coffee rather than gas station filter coffee, but apart from that 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Summary: We had a wonderful stay at El Caminante. We were warmly greeted and allowed an early check-in, which was much needed. The location was perfect and free of any traffic issues. The rooms were smaller than a normal hotel room but had the character and class that we were looking for. The porch was really neat with a view of the Pacific, nice patio furniture, and a firepit. The bar had great coffee, and while we didn't try the food, the menu looked great. The only reason we didn't give it 5 stars is because the fire alarm went off one night (probably a fluke but just bad timing), and we also did not receive a park pass as stated in the reservation (they said they had been stolen). The staff accommodated this and gave us a credit back on our bill to compensate. Michael at the front was especially great - so helpful, answered all of our questions, and was a jack of all trades. Loved this place and would definitely go back again!

Summary: Room was quaint but is very small, barely enough space to get around bed., no closet, no shelf space in bathroom. There were 2 drawers under bed but difficult to access. Property is very pretty with lots of flowers and a chimanea on the patio. It seems that the patio is to make up for the lack of space in the room.

Summary: This is the 2nd time I stay here. The place is gorgeous and super comfortable. I had an ADA room and it was much roomier. I have a bad hip and the extra space made it easy to get around the room. Everything was clean and the room smelled great. I love the toiletries. Plush towels and perfect bedding. I put on my jammies and wrapped myself in the robe and sat by the chimney in the patio. I read for hours with the sound of the waves and the fire. El Caminante is a great getaway.
