Summary: Cute little inn in Pismo Beach with a wonderful pool! Very clean, comfortable, quiet...and my room even had a library in it! I added a good book I had just finished to the library!

Summary: Pismo Beach has always been our choice when visiting Santa Barbara and the central California coastal areas. The hotel is a remodeled motel. The management took extra care to add a number of upscale amenities to make their guests comfortable. The rooms were small but well equipped and thoughtfully decorated. Quiet and convenient.

Summary: Cute rooms with comfortable beds and pillows. Not far from downtown and close to the park and beach for kids to play. Heated pool and ambiance was a plus

Summary: A hidden gem. The Shell Beach Inn provided a warm welcome and quirky decor with some nice extra touches such as popcorn and complimentary water. Nice location for sunsets at the nearby coast. Would stay there again.

Summary: This was our 2nd time staying at this property. We love the location and overall, it’s an old property that has been well renovated. We love the pool area and extra touches with complimentary bottled water, popcorn and playing cards. Check in was very easy but there is no staff on the property after 6:00. We were in room 9 which had a deck facing the trash cans and did have an odor of old hotel and we had issues with the old TV. We appreciate the cable tv but there was no remote for the actual TV and it was not a smart TV so we couldn’t get back to the cable when we accidentally pushed a button and we couldn’t stream anything. The ironing board was also broken and the room was very dark. I would recommend a different room if you want to be able to see and not have the odor of old hotel. We had previous takes in room 2 or 3 and had no issues.
