The Sand Pebbles is a beautiful hotel. Breakfast is included and coffee is available at the front desk in the mornings. There is a refrigerator, microwave and in room coffee maker. The beds are comfortable and the room is neat and clean.
Beautiful location and wonderful staff and service. The breakfast was great as it is served in your room. Fresh and very tasty. Clean and well kept. We will return for another fabulous stay.
Beautifully maintained and charming with amazing location on moonstone beach. Delicious breakfast and water/coffee options. Easy parking. Would’ve enjoyed a hot tub and an outdoor fire pit option, but that’s being picky.
My sister and I stayed one night at the Sand Pebbles Inn. The view was amazing!! So close to the Hearst Castle..less than 15 minutes. We were able to take in a tour the day of arrival and again the next morning. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. We had a partial view of the ocean in room 207. Breakfast was brought to our room the day we checked out. Definitely one of the best places to stay on the Pacific Coast! We will be back again for future sister trips.
Amazing! we upgraded to an Oceanview room, everything about the hotel is wonderful!
The check in made us feel very welcome, the hotel is beautiful and very clean. . . .breakfast was delicious and brought to our door!

Liked: Staff & service
The entire staff at Sand Pebbles was great. They are friendly and helpful.
The room furnishings are sadly lacking in comfort. There is virtually no storage for clothing.
This place is awesome for some quiet time with beautiful sunset and sunrise. The room is clean and everyone is super nice. Will definitely come back here for a quick RR.
Just as described, nice hotel across the street from beautiful Moonstone beach. A tasty breakfast burrito delivered to our room included with our stay. Coffee maker and supplies in our room. The top sheet was missing with our bedding which was odd. Front desk clerk was friendly. Delicious Moonstone Beach bar and grill a few doors down served us a delicious ribeye steak.
