Inn Details

The Inn at Moonlight Beach is San Diego's Pacific Coast Bed and Breakfast Inn. We're located on a hillside just above Moonlight Beach overlooking the Pacific Ocean in the quaint little beach community of Encinitas.

Each of our 4 lovely "boutique" guest suites are ultra-fresh-and-clean with plush linens, fresh ocean breezes, private bathrooms, wi-fi, cable TV, refrigerator and coffee maker with Starbucks coffee.

We're closer to the beach than any Bed & Breakfast or Inn in North County San Diego, so we have beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, boogie boards and a surf board for you to use – free.

Each morning Ann prepares home-made fresh-from-the-oven breads, muffins and croissants and has them waiting for you with fresh sliced fruit, crunchy premium granola, warm hard-boiled eggs, delicious yogurts and fresh-ground Starbucks coffee.

    Photo Album

    Your hostess, Ann Dunham, is known far and wide for her scrumptious homemade bread, muffins & rolls and her fresh-ground Starbucks coffee. Ann loves to entertain our guests and keeps a perfect inn. The Inn At Moonlight Beach is perched on a hill above Moonlight Beach, surrounded by lush tropical palms, a soothing waterfall and views of the Pacific Ocean.
    Moonlight Beach is beautiful. On clear days you can see Santa Catalina Island 64 miles away. Mouthwatering free continental breakfasts with fresh-from-the-oven home-made baked goods are served in the Sunroom every morning from 8 - 10 a.m. and includes tea or fresh-ground Starbucks Coffee.
    Sunset at Moonlight BeachThe Oceanview Room sleeps 2 in a queen-sized bed. Guests tell us that our rooms are clean, fresh and plush. Ann's goal is to exceed your expectations.
    Mouthwatering free continental breakfasts with fresh-from-the-oven home-made baked goods are served in the Sunroom every morning from 8 - 10 a.m. Enjoy tea or fresh-ground Starbucks Coffee. Three is nothing quite like boogie boarding on a warm sunny day at quiet, friendly Stone Steps beach. We'll loan you our two boogie boards and you can have more fun than a barrel of monkeys!
    Learning to surf at Beacon's Beach with Kahuna Bob or one of his great instructors can be the thrill of a lifetime. Google "Kahuna Bob" for his website. Moonlight Beach is the place to watch for surfers, dolphins, whales and fantastic sunsets.
    We recommend a morning walk on the beach, or anytime to swim, body surf, use our boogie-boards, play volleyball, or just relax and watch dozens (or hundreds!) of world-class surfers. Keep an eye out for Gray Whales and Bottlenose Dolphin. Ann serves a fresh, delicious breakfast of fresh pastries, fruit, granola and yogurt each morning from 7 a.m to 9 a.m. in the Sunroom. If you enjoy Starbucks coffee, you'll like the way Ann fresh grinds her Starbucks beans for you!
    Sunsets from Stone Steps Beach rival those at Moonlight Beach. Yes, the sunsets at SeaBreeze are amazing.
    Inn at Moonlight Beach is located less than 2 blocks from Moonlight Beach. The Beach Room sleeps 4 with a queen-sized bed and a daybed that turns into two twin-sized beds. SeaBreeze rooms are always ultra-fresh and spotlessly clean with plush linens, modern private bathroom, wireless internet, refrigerator and cable TV. Your hostess, Ann Dunham, will make you homemade breads, muffins and rolls for breakfast; plus, you'll enjoy her fresh-ground Starbucks coffee every morning from 7:00 to 9:00 a.m.
    Swami's Beach, made famous by the Beach Boys, is just 8 blocks south down historic Highway 101 and is surfed daily by the top surfers from around the world. The Penthouse Suite is private and romantic with a king-sized bed and private deck and private hot tub.
    Read a book or enjoy the waterfall in our meditative gardens. Enjoy watching the top surfers in the world are at Swami's every morning.
    The waterfall in our gardens will put you to sleep at night if you leave your windows open.
    Sunsets are great from the private deck in the Penthouse Suite. Other guest enjoy sunsets from the front porch of the Inn.The second floor Penthouse Suite sleeps 2 in a King-sized bed. It has its own private deck with romantic hot tub that commands a wonderful view of the Pacific Ocean. From the hot tub you can actually see the curvature of the earth on the ocean's horizon.
