On the property
“The “fireplace” is electronic (so no real fire) and if you book the ocean view upstairs there is no outside space (the ocean view on the lower level has a little sitting area outside.”
What couples highlight
“Our room was beautiful, I was able to walk my daughter over to the beach, staff was on point, and the breakfast was so good!”
“We stayed one night, walked on the beach in the morning, went on a tour of the castle, then went to see the elephant seals.”

From the reviews
First time staying at this adorable little motel and highly recommend. It's situated right on the ocean and each room offers a beautiful ocean front view. Staff was friendly, room was very clean and very spacious. You could tell that the rooms had recently been updated.
Getting married at Sand Pebbles Inn
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
