    Wow this is perfect if you like old school cozy comfort! I personally can't stand generic mausoleum-type motel rooms, I want DECOR! CHARM!!! And the Seaside has it...plus a lovely garden leading right towards the beach. Of course I loved the "Fish Fantasy" room. Staff was very friendly and the place is neat as a pin.

    Amazing property! Very clean, neat and orderly. From my initial email and phone call, I only have great comments. Everyone was helpful, professional, cheerful and excited that we were staying at their property. Location is great, easy walk to the beach and downtown Cayucos. The theme of our room was "Tea for Two" and was spacious and very comfortable. I highly recommend this place! The outside garden area is beautiful and friendly! Bar-B-Ques are available for guest use! Smudge the cat only adds to the charm and fun of your stay! Also, great coffee in the room! Will definitely return

    My husband and I just wrapped up a two-night, mid-week stay here with some friends, celebrating our friend's birthday. This is a very, cute, comfortable, clean, and quiet little place. It's very old-school, very quaint, with a wonderful garden out back that has a lovely view of the sea. We stayed in room #5, aptly-named Tea for Two, with lots of teapot-themed decor. If you are looking for glitzy, modem, and expensive, there are lots of fancy pants spots elsewhere that will give that to you. This is just a wonderful, privately-owned motel with plenty of uniqueness and character. If you like local flavor and not corporate impersonality, stay here. We loved the place and will definitely stay again. We were delighted with our room and the peacefulness. The place was spotless (we even noticed housekeeping vacuuming the outdoor carpet right along the edge of the parking lot) and it was very comfy and cozy. The motel is centrally located, within walking distance of the pier, restaurants, shopping and beach. Granted, Cayucos isn't a huge metropolis, anyway, but it was nice to be able to park our car and not have to use it during our stay. A+ to owner Rick and his staff for having such an awesome spot.

    I've been staying at the Seaside Motel in Cayucos for over 30 years, along with my mom and dad before me and my sisters and their families. Rebecca and Rick have maintained this little treasure impeccably and consistently. Each space is lovingly and artfully cared for. In a world that is constantly changing, I love that our favorite place on the central coast remains the same; comfortable and inviting, spotless and always cozy. Thank you Rick and Rebecca for making your corner of the world amazing and for sharing it with us.

    This family owned and run motel is quirky, clean, quiet and a great place to just sit in a lovely garden. It's located in a great spot for walking around. Plenty of restaurants, coffee bars and antique stores in walking distance. The beach is right there for miles of walking on too. Rick (the owner, manger and you name it) would give you the shirt of his back if you needed it! We will definitely stay there again.

    The cutest, sweetest motel ever! We loved our one night stay here! On a road trip and didn't like Morro Bay so went onto Cayucos. Luckily we got the last couple of rooms at the Seaside Motel. I was in Room #9 (my lucky number too) and it was adorable. Comfortable, sweet, super clean and functional - just like being at grandma's house. I would come back here in a heartbeat. Super location - walking distance from town and beach. We could hear the waves crashing from our room. Adorable little back garden with seating. Adjacent clothes line was great for drying beach towels and swimsuits. Just a great little property all around!

    Stayed here over this past Memorial Day weekend. Nothing fancy with the room but it was clean and well worth the cost. Especially with the proximity to the beach. Literally within a few minutes walk behind the motel and your hitting the sand. Best part of the motel, it's garden patio area. Really pretty and relaxing atmosphere. We spent our 2 nights stay enjoying our dinner in the garden with the soothing sounds of waves crashing. This was on of the best vacation I've had with family. Even though the town is small, I would definitely return and stay at this motel again.

She then continued to hand my husband paperwork, while my husband was filling out the paperwork she looked at me and rudely said "is your name the same as your husbands?", I said no, and gave her my name. My husband then handed back the paperwork and she again rudely told my husband he forgot to initial a spot then proceeded to say "no body likes to listen to me". We finished checking in and went to go kill time till 3:30. They did give us a call around 2pm to let us know the room is ready. When we came back, I asked for the manager and the lady who was so disrespectful and rude just so happens to be the manager. My husband began to express how rude and disrespectful she was. She then started to apologize, but in a very condescending way with a smile on her face. She then told my husband that her name isn't "sweetheart", it is Gina. So this Gina lady was instantly insulted and offended by my husband being respectful and calling her "sweetheart". If you want to stay at a place that is gender neutral, this is the hotel for you. If you are a conservative and treat everyone with respect, this is not the hotel for you! You might offend someone if you don't use their proper pronouns. Go stay at On The Beach Bed & Breakfast, well worth the money!

    I've been coming to the Shoreline Inn for about 10 years. My last visit just didn't match up to…read moretheir usual high standards. The bed sheets were so old and pilled, they were very uncomfortable to sleep on (see photo). The shower had orange shampoo from the dispenser all over the tub and wall tile, and it was dried so I know it had been there several hours before my arrival (also see picture). And I understand it is pet friendly, but all the towels in the bathroom (that are not supposed to be used for pets) had a wet dog smell to them upon using them after my shower. I love this place and will keep returning, and the staff are always so friendly and amazing. But I think the cleaning crew need more training as far as cleanliness, knowing when old sheets should not be used, and maybe washing the 'human' towels in hot water and sterilize them, just in case they had been used on a pet.

In the busy season they do book up so make your reservation early. Prime location right next to the pier. If you are on the beach side you will have an amazing view. Lots of places to eat within walking distance and a bunch of antique shops as well We were in room 202 which is an upstairs king room. The bathroom has shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion and liquid hand soap so no need to bring your own. Our room had a jetted tub The bedroom area has a mini fridge, microwave, coffee maker, fireplace and 3 chairs to lounge in. They provide an extra blanket if you get cold. There is best but no A/C. However there is a box fan in the closet and a ceiling fan as well Outside you have a small balcony with 2 chairs and a table. Beautiful View. Just be careful eating outside as there are lots of seagulls However they were friendly All day in the lobby you can get hot tea and hot chocolate along with fruit and cereal. From 8 am to 10 am they add coffee. From 4 pm to 5 pm they have beer and wine available They also have sugars and creamers available Breakfast is included each morning. You fill out a card with your choices and drop it at the front desk before 5 pm the night before. You can also leave it hanging on your door. Each morning you can have a pastry or quiche, flavors change daily. They also have yogurt, hard boiled egg, fruit, orange juice or milk. We had the quiche each morning and they were delicious. You can also choose what time between 8 am and 10 am you would like it delivered. Each afternoon freshly baked cookies are placed in your door hanging in a cute bag. The oatmeal and chocolate chip were amazing. If you want excellent service and amenities then this should be your choice. Very personal service, amazing location and quiet. Cindy you are amazing thank you for everything.

Also...major bonus points for being dog-friendly. My pup was living his best life here. Now, let's talk breakfast. Or...my lack of breakfast. If you're plant-based, your options are basically: * Toast * Fruit * Plain oatmeal (if you're feeling adventurous) Meanwhile, my dog was over there enjoying what I like to call "my breakfast." Day one: cheese omelette. Day two: scrambled eggs and potatoes. Honestly, he was thrilled. I get that it's a standard hotel breakfast setup, but in 2026, throwing in one solid vegan option doesn't feel like a wild ask. Even a simple oatmeal bar or plant-based protein would go a long way. That said, everything else about the stay was great - clean, comfortable, welcoming, and easy. I'd absolutely stay here again... I'll just plan to bring my own breakfast.
