You have to talk to an actual person to book here. So worth it. My mom, my 11 year daughter and myself stayed here for our spring break and had the best time. My mom was recovering from a serious illness and this was just what the Dr. ordered. The staff leaves you alone and lets you enjoy your holiday.... more

Gorgeous! Excellent location, beautiful rooms, close to all beach activities and shopping. If you've never tried it, you have really been missing out. Totally worth the price. more

We stayed at the Crystal Pier last year. It was a memorable experience falling asleep as ocean waves gently rock you to sleep. Your cabin is piered right into the ocean, so the whole room kind of vibrates when the waves crash below. Beautiful views; clean but plain accommodations, and it was fun to watch the surfers. There are several... more

The perfect escape! My boyfriend and I spent 4 nights in the hotel, number 25 on the second floor. We had a perfect view of Pacific Beach and watched the sun set from our balcony every night. The location is perfect. There are plenty of restaurants, shops, and the beach right there. The staff is so wonderful. The only complaint... more

My teenage son had been bugging me to get a cottage on the pier for quite some time. He frequently goes to the pier to fish & wanted to be a guest so he could go night fishing.

I loved the views, the room, the experience! We were walkin guests and were shown two choices, one of the cabins over the ocean on the pier and one of the much larger rooms on land with full on facing of the ocean, same price. We chose not to stay on the pier to get the full views offered by... more

Here it is in a nutshell... If you want a resort with lots to do, bellhops, room service, etc... than this is not the place for you. HOWEVER.... If you are the type that gets a whole day off every 2-4 years and want a place to get away... a simple place with all the right things... this place is... more

I stayed here three wonderful nights. Although I am not a relaxed traveler, and I was by myself, I felt completely safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I was in a room perpendicular to the pier and had total privacy and a perfect view. I can't imagine staying anywhere else! more

This was the last leg of my honeymoon and I stayed here for 3 nights mid-September based soley on the reviews on here as it was #1 and had been for some time. The room was very nice - quaint and basic. The views over the ocean were spectacular and that alone was worth it as was hearing the sound... more
