Great place to stay. Super friendly staff at the reception. Beautiful decorated and clean room. Free breakfast to your room. Free parking. Located at the beach with boardwalk. Enjoy the beautiful sunsets. Great restaurant just 3 minutes away by foot. Hearst Castle only a 10 minute drive. I recommend the Blue Dolphin Inn and definitely would stay again.

Shopping in Cambria and restaurants were excellent. Well definitely be back to this area. Our room was very nice. The only downside was delivery of breakfast in a bag with nowhere to eat it, a bit odd.
