Jade Cove Tours

Jade Cove is a worthwhile place kick off your day in San Simeon. This inlet along the shoreline comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it's not the only spot to see here.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (929 reviews)
The room was super cute and updated. The staff was really nice. The only downside was the super thin walls. It sounded like a grizzly bear in cement shoes was in the room above us. Not only loud clomping feer back and forth but the snoring sounded like he was in the same room with us.

9/10 Wonderful! (1,233 reviews)
The view of the ocean and gardens were beautiful. We were disappointed in the room. Furniture was outdated and bed was so-so. The price of the room was too high. The check in went smoothly and was efficient.

8.8/10 Excellent! (1,724 reviews)
My husband and I here stayed one night on a west coast roadtrip and we loved this place. You can tell its old but they keep it updated and in fantastic condition. We had a downstairs room with a porch facing the ocean. The wood burning fireplace was a nic esurprise as was rhe size of the room. There were lots of things out on the lawn to do, pool/hot tub, and areas to just sit and watch the waves from above, and it was a very short walk down to the beach. We loved the little restaurant next door too. Breakfast was great and staff was sweet.

If you're travelling the California coast around San Luis Obispo stop on the highway and experience this Elephant Seal Sanctuary. The Elephant Seals come ashore and sun themselves. It's a spectacular and natural way to view them. It's well worth the stop. #california #nature #beach #nikon
