I have always wanted to stay at White Water but unfortunately it was very disappointing. My expectation was high because of the room rates being higher than any other hotel options around. I thought you will get more an exclusive and exceptional experience. This is not any different than a good Cambria hotel but only polished from the outside and offer you “luxury” amenities such as Aesop hand soap, shampoo, lotion etc… that they also charge you for using them. They give a “breakfast basket” in the morning that includes coffee, orange juice and 2 small slices of banana bread. They have charged us $100 pet fee but we haven’t received any dog bed, bowl or treats that you usually get in a hotel that advertises themselves at this quality. They are “dog friendly” but they don’t allow dogs in the lobby area so you can only sit outside if you would like enjoy a drink or coffee. The rooms are very simple, they are not really made with good quality materials. The staff could have been more friendlier. I would say, have a look at other options before deciding only for the vibes that you see from outside of this hotel.

We stayed in a charming ocean view studio/cottage across from Moonstone beach for a few nights in December. The rooms are located across two adjacent properties - you will either stay in the site where the lobby is located or need to take a very short drive to the property next door. Our room was spacious and well-appointed. I enjoyed the coastal Californian decor and thoughtful touches, like a basket of Erewhon snacks for purchase, a retro Smeg mini-fridge, the cozy electric fireplace, and the Aesop toiletries. The hotel charged $17/night (plus taxes) for a breakfast basket with fresh orange juice, local coffee, and pastries (delivered to your room in the mornings), WiFi, overnight parking, and bike rentals. We didn't rent the bikes, but there was a fleet of cute beach cruisers on site. The area is quiet and sleepy, even during the holiday season. The beachfront hotels in Cambria are mostly all located along a dark stretch of road, a mile away from the downtown area. The roads are not well illuminated at night, so be careful walking or driving after the sun goes down. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay - it was a relaxing getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life. The only reason I am not giving them 5 stars is because the Orbitz booking site said breakfast for our specific room was included, but I still had to pay the extra amenity fee and taxes during check-in.

Cambria is a very friendly town, the view from the room and lobby is so beautiful and can’t describe with words. Just the ocean view room will be kinda noisy during the midnight cuz the sound insulation of the room is not that good:) ppl that’s sensitive to noise or sounds maybe can choose the room in the middle and cross the road, walk to the amazing seaside. The pastry and orange juice for breakfast are the best I’ve ever had in Cali;)

This stay was a dream. From the complimentary little breakfast basket to the ollaliberry hot toddy in the evening by the fire pit, everything was wonderful. The staff was always so wonderful and gave us many recommendations to eat. Took morning and evening strolls right across the street at moonstone beach. The front desk even let us know when sunset would be so we would not miss it. Its conveniently located and a great stay if your going to Hearst castle just 10 minutes away. We will most definitely be back

A sweet inn on Pacific Ocean in Cambria. Nice, 4 star, rooms. Beds are comfortable, rooms are large as are bathrooms. Decent robes, fireplaces. Nicely stocked minibar with drinks and snacks. They offer a sweet coffee service w/pastries at about 7:30 a.m.--but that usually means closer to 8:00. (Earlier would be better) Two EV Connect chargers available for a fee. Could use a few more amenities like: slippers, upgraded TVs that accept projection from PCs and phones, jacuzzi/hot tub would be really nice.

Perfect location to feel a world a way while remaining minutes from services and leisure. Spotless, across the street from the boardwalk and numerous beaches to explore. TV needs some updating with an update to Netfli which was un-updatable but minor issue. We were there to roam about.
