A perfect getaway.. We spent a lot of time on the rooftop area. We watched the sunset go down with a great ocean view by the firepit and then relaxed in the jacuzzi. Really close to a huge selection of excellent restaurants.

We've been going to the Cardiff Lodge every year since 2003 and will continue to go back as much as possible. We believe that a get-away is what you bring to it as much as what your environment is. We go there knowing that we'll have the beach right... read more

Innkeeper Response
We were saddened to read this review which contained so many negative remarks. We love our Cardiff by the Sea Lodge, and we take great pride in the property and the operation. We are sorry that the guests had what they described as such an unpleasant experience. They were here for two nights and on the morning of their departure they asked for a late check-out which they were given. Both Jane and Laurie who worked that weekend have told us that they had had pleasant conversations with the guests. Jane said that they came to the front desk with concerns which she addressed. She said hey were very friendly and seemed happy with the accommodations. Their reservation included a discounted rate and a dinner voucher to a very nice local Italian restaurant which they complimented. Trevor came on duty at noon on their departure day. Jane told him about their concerns and that she had given them a courtesy late check out. Their written description seemed to exaggerate what went on during their stay. We would never want our guests to feel that they had not been treated with respect. We all care deeply for the success and reputation of the Lodge. The Sweetheart room has recently been refurbished with new drapes and shutters which highlight the panoramic ocean view. We like to think that it is the signature room of the Lodge. Sincerely, James and Jeanette Statser
