Finding a Hotel in Pismo Beach
• A WorldWeb.com Travel Guide for Pismo Beach, California.
Pismo Beach is a California coastal town, located about 180 mi (290 km) north of Los Angeles and 240 mi (390 km) south of San Francisco. The California central coast has a couple of small towns in this area that provide places for visitors to soak in the balmy temperatures, warm sunshine, soft sandy beaches and cool ocean waters. Those choosing to spend a weekend, a few days or an extended vacation will find a good range of hotels and motels to choose from as well as several vacation rental properties, and some inns and camping options too.
Pismo Beach has a couple of smaller neighboring towns to the north, Shell Beach and Avila Beach, which also provide lodgings along the seven-mile stretch of accessible coastline.
Pismo Beach has over 2000 rooms, RV and camping sights to entertain the sizable number of visitors to the area, especially during the warmest months of the year—from July to October—when it needs this range on weekends. Visitors will find most hotels in the town dotted along and around Cabrillo Highway (also known as Dolliver Street) between the ocean and Highway 101, and there are numerous restaurants as well in this area that visitors can stroll to from their hotel or motel of choice.
PISMO BEACH HOTELS & MOTELS
The town is known for its pier that stretches 1300 ft (396 m) out into the ocean and several hotels in the town are located within just a block of the famed boardwalk, which sits at the end of Pomeroy Street. These include mid-range places that offer hot tubs, a swimming pool and budget options that give guests a comfortable bed to rest their heads without breaking the bank. A little further away from the pier but with a hot tub that offers views of the ocean lies the Sandcastle Inn. This hotel has both rooms and suites, some of which have views of the ocean. Additional economically priced lodging choices can be found several blocks away from the beach and closer to Highway 101.
The area also affords visitors with lots of outdoor activities like golf, fishing, hiking and surfing, as well as the opportunity to visit the nearby wine producing region that lies just a few miles inland from the city. Many hotels in the town lie within walking distance of equipment rental stores and some even provide guests with on-site bike rental. Additional hotels and motels stretch north along the highway towards Shell Beach. The SeaCrest Resort is one of the closest to Pismo Beach and has an outdoor heated swimming pool with ocean views and three hot tubs, while the Kon Tiki Inn features a full fitness center, sauna and massage service.
There are a couple of mid-range chain hotels further along the highway, one that provides cliff top views and the other, half way to Shell Beach, has its own private cove. The Pismo Lighthouse Suites in this area offers a swimming pool, badminton court, a life-size chess board and putting greens.
