"Lovely people, food and stay. The location is out of this world and take the time to visit the hot tubs on property.
Side note: if you’re not staying in one of the ocean front rooms, I probably wouldn’t pay the price. "

"Have been staying at the Plaza a few years now and its always been my favorite. It's quiet, the scenery is gorgeous, it's clean and the staff is great. The restaurant inside is not that great but everything else is. "
"Cute little property with nice outside fire pits and great hot tub. Room was cozy and loved the breakfast each morning in the lobby. Staff was super friendly and accommodating, especially Anne. Walkable to everything in town. "
"Great stay at Big Sur Lodge! The room was convenient for our family of 4 to have space and sleep comfortably.
We only had one night, so appreciated the rest located to the park and trails. Free access into the park was a nice touch as well!
Restaurant was amazing - both the food and location above the river were great. We enjoyed the rib eye, salmon pasta, and the beet salad. We enjoyed a little river walk after dinner.
Will be back! "
"Staff was friendly. When the toilet was backed up someone came to fix within 20 minutes. It's an older quaint townlike feel and had a fireplace in in."
