small hotel, we come often and stay here because we have family in ventura. popular restaurant ( great food) that many locals come to eat lunch and dinner which is located by the hotel pool which we had to get used to… Views are fabulous, rooms very clean nothing fancy, beds comfortable , since small hotel and not many rooms therefore front desk has limited hours.

10/10 Exceptional

It is a unique waterfront property with excellent affordable restaurant. Quiet and area and friendly staff and continental breakfast.
Deborah, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

GREAT ocean views, but not much else.

Amazing views of ocean. Pool was nice and warm, but also next to restaurant diners (so not private). Nice breakfast, but no salt available. No elevator, and very limited parking. Far from Ventura downtown/city and other restaurants, but not too far from Carpinteria [10 to 15 min drive]. But if you are looking for ocean views and quiet, this place is great. No stores within walking distance, so you need a car, or bring your own snacks!
Tammy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cliff house inN! The location was splendid. The staff was cordial and very helpful. The pool was immaculate and the dinner at the restaurant was delicious! Continental breakfast was OK but could’ve been expanded a bit.
MARGERY, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Being able to relax and dine poolside with an ocean view could not be beat. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Landscaping around the property was lovely as well.
