West Beach Inn was absolutely wonderful! Great ocean front location within walking distance of the beach and downtown, comfortable rooms, complimentary breakfast and nightly wine and cheese happy hour, sparkling pool and hot tub and lovely grounds- everything exceeded our expectations. Best of all- the staff was super friendly and accommodating.
We stayed here on our way from solvang and decided to stay a night in SB. Walking distance to local restaurants , harbour and wharf . We enjoyed the spa and the welcome wine and cheese was a nice touch.. check in was easy, the property was well maintained and the rooms were comfortable . If you are looking for a nice place to stay and not spend too much this was it .
We can see the bay from our room. Room is very spacious and comfortable. The staff it was really nice. The breakfast bar was tasty and clean. The pool was a little cold.But the hot tub was great. Location to walking distance to the wharf and several places was perfect.
The room was outstanding with a view of the harbor that was fantastic. We especially enjoyed sitting on the balcony and watching the activities in the harbor area. The staff was accommodating and friendly.

Clean room, excellent staff, convenient location and access to the beach, restaurants, & shops!
I love the location of this place and the pool and hot tub. The rooms are nice and big. The only not as positive thing is that the bathroom and shower are quite small but we were fine with that.

Most everything stood out. Reception, room, location and view. Could go on. Continental breakfast was well done and fresh. This was our first time staying here but it will now be our every time spot.
