Top San Simeon Hotel Reviews

Cavalier Oceanfront Resort

Cavalier Oceanfront Resort

10/10 Excellent
"The staff was very friendly and accommodated all our needs from towels for the pool to restaurant recommendations. They were wonderful. . We had a very nice time. Being able to walk to the beach from the hotel was a great bonus. There was no AC in the room so we ended up leaving windows open to get cool outside air in to stay comfortable overnight. For reference, our stay was over Labor Day weekend, so it still warm during the day. The fire pit in the evening was really nice. We sat and made s’mores while listening to the surf, which was a wonderful fun thing for our last night there."
