Ragged Point Inn

You're paying for the view Look, you're paying for the view. So make sure you get a room with a view. Otherwise you're just paying for being at the only place in the area. Now the views are INCREDIBLE, once in a lifetime. Beautiful, well maintained property. However, the rooms are dingy and old, our bathroom faucet didn't work and had to be repaired twice in one evening. The food is good but budget for it, it's very pricy. Be aware that if you don't have ATT you may not have any cell service at all, and the WIFI is patchy. It's worth doing it just once, that's for sure, but don't expect the type of room you'd typically get for this price.

Bad Customer Service I have worked in hospitality for many years and Chris at the front desk is the most unprofessional front desk agent I have experienced. Too bad a cool resort like this has an employee that does not care about customer service. The disregard for the resorts reputation is astounding. His words were: we are taking your money the road is closed and we need it. Unbelievable on how you can let this kind if service happen, poor job on management.

5 Star view!! A fun place to stay the night with a 5 star view but a 4 star hotel. Enjoyed the trip up from SLO arriving early afternoon. Rooms were ready early so we checked in and did the hike to the beach below. It was short but steep and slippery. With good hiking shoes and poles it was doable but challenging. Sunsets are great and views both directions are breathtaking! Rooms had very comfortable beds and were clean but getting a little rough around the edges in spots. We ate dinner and breakfast at the Inn and both were very good (but not great). Highly recommend the Halibut Fish and Chips if you like that sort of thing. Big crowds at lunch from day trippers but Highway 1 closure seems to have killed the overnight crowds. Dinner and Breakfast was just us and a handful of guests. Overall a really fun experience and I would recommend but don't expect a five star hotel or you will be disappointed.

The Perfect Get-Away for a Restful Few Days My husband and I recently celebrated our 50th Anniversary. We boarded Amtrak in Portland, OR, and traveled down the CA coast to San Luis Obispo. From there we rented a car and drove the coastline north to the Bay Area. One of the highlights was our time at Ragged Point Inn. The 2 nights we stayed were exactly what we needed ... food for the weary soul. It was cold, foggy, and romantic. The view, well it's the ocean! Does it get better than that? Our room had a cozy cabin feel, the bed was comfortable and the jacuzzi tub was a pleasant surprise! Sitting next to the fireplace with a nice glass of wine was perfect. The next morning we had a wonderful breakfast in the dining room, the Cinnamon French toast was worth the drive! We spent the day in Cambria, not near enough time to take in so many unique shops, boutiques, antique stores, etc. We managed to do some wine tasting and then headed back to Ragged Point for dinner. I ordered crab cakes, which are made in-house, and amazing, and my husband had the Ribeye steak, and it was cooked to perfection. The wait staff was great and very attentive. To wrap up our stay, we enjoyed an evening Christmas tour of Hearst Castle. I think it was the last one of the season, I'm so glad that worked out, it was all perfect. Ragged Point, we will be back! I need more time in your gift shop!

Try elsewhere because they're not trying This place is a hard avoid. The only thing it really has going for it is the view, everything after that was disappointing. Rooms are dated and expensive for the quality. We had booked two double rooms however they gave us one double and one king. When we raised it they were not very helpful - basically said they were full and it was the booking company's fault for getting it wrong. Wifi did not work in our rooms - again when we asked about this they just said that that is what happened when they were fully booked. Finally - the food in the restaurant (dinner) was average - overall not a great experience.
