Top Elmar Beach Hotel Reviews

Quality Inn Half Moon Bay/Miramar Beach

10/10 Excellent

"👍"

Montara Penthouse — Elevated Comfort Above Downtown Half Moon Bay

10/10 Excellent

"The property was beautiful and very clean. The windows made it very bright and open. At night however the moonlight kept it bright making it a little difficult to sleep. Thank you for the two fans they were critical as there was no AC and it would get hot and a muggy in the room. We would air out the place when would return as it did not take long to heat up. The soaking tub was amazing. We both were able to sit in it together. A recommendation would be to add some dimmer switches in both bathroom areas. Then we can dim the lights either at the two sinks or when soaking in the tub. Set some mood lighting or not blind myself when brushing my teeth. 😀 The windows by the bed were difficult to open and close, so you may want to check those out. It is a good location, greatly appreciated the parking space. Although, people tended to ignore the sign and park tgere anyway. The restaurants near the room were fantastic. You cannot go wrong there. The Mediterranean cuisine, the deli, Chinese food to the breakfast options all tasted delicious. For two people the prices were easily over $70+ a meal, but we are on vacation. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would recommend this location to anyone."

Cypress Inn On Miramar Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Right on the beach with pacific ocean views and access to a wonderful seaside walking/bicycling path. Amazing sunsets and quiet and access to some casual seaside restaurants. Friendly staff and a cozy, albeit small room. But perfect for the stay i wanted and the amount of luggage i was travelling with :)"

"The location is great. Nice little place for a beach getaway. The host responds quickly. If I had any suggestions, I'd make a few modern upgrades."

Seaside Home: Modern Retreat with Breathtaking Views and Beachside Charm

8/10 Good

"Satisfied although I would suggest cleaning the dining room chair seats. They were stained and a steam cleaning would make them more presentable also it appears the shampoo in the master bedroom on the first floor was mixed up with the conditioner, the outdoor couch on the deck was broken under the cushion unable to use to sit on. Overall, it was beautiful house and the stay was enjoyable. Lovely and convenient area"

Charming Garden Cottage- steps to historic Old Town Half Moon Bay

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location and very comfortable beds!"

Beachview Holiday Family Retreat | Steps to Sand

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and great property for our group!!"

Miramar Penthouse – Coastal Elegance in the Heart of Half Moon Bay

10/10 Excellent

"We happened to be there on a warm weekend (rare in Half Moon Bay), and air conditioning would have made it more comfortable. However, on the second night, we found better spots for the portable fans and made it much more comfortable. Additionally, it is not a fully equipped kitchen; there is one hot plate and no oven. Overall, it was a GREAT location and perfect for my furry babies, and we all had a wonderful time."
