The property is located in a interesting area close to restaurants and some shopping. the only downside is that there is neither an elevator or ramp to the upstairs rooms so dragging a suitcase up is challenging.

The hotel is located just a few minutes walk from the beach. The area has a laid back feel to it which we enjoyed. Lots of dining options within a 5 minute walk too. The hotel is fairly basic overall but clean and comfortable. You can get complimentary muffins and freshly made healthy juices in the morning which is a nice touch. There are no coffee/tea making facilities in the room so you have to go down to the lobby to get one. The lobby has this convoluted coffee machine that takes forever to produce half a cup so you end up having to do it twice to get a coffee! A pot of drip coffee would be a great addition for the morning rush of guests. However there is a nice little hipster coffee shop right across the street if you want to go buy your own which I ended up doing. There is a rooftop patio which is great for watching the sunset over the ocean. There's a mixture of seating up there but it would be great if they had some loungers to relax on as well as the wicker seats.

The air conditioner blows right on you above the bed. The fridge was really loud. I had to leave because I felt uncomfortable and unsafe and went to stay with a friend.

Great location and views. Property is very nice and the rooftop patio is spectacular. Should be noted that there is no elevator so not great for lots of luggage or mobility issues.

Our Stay
Beautiful Place, Amazing View, Clean, and Amazing customer service. On our first night we couldn't get much sleep due to the crowd next door. We were hoping it would die down but it got louder into the night and didn't quiet down tell after 2:30am. The second night was much quieter.

They did an amazing job creating such a nice place. Pro: Roof top, Prosecco when we arrived, muffin & healthy juice in the morning, decoration in the room, record player, walk to beach. However, we were sad we got 1st floor room, very dark room with only one window facing corridor. If we open the curtain, there is no privacy. So we had to close it but it’s so dark. I would suggest to add more lighting in these room. And it had old motel type of smell even though the room is very clean. It’s pity because they did amazing job everything else to elevate your stay. Receptionist lady was super nice. Still recommend this pace but get upstairs room ;)

We enjoyed our stay at the Cardiff by the Sea Lodge. The recently upgraded property is beautiful and clean. Our king bedroom had pretty decor and even though we were on the first floor near the lobby, it was quiet. The bathroom cabinetry had intricate wood carvings, the shower had decorative tile and we had nice, hot showers. We liked the comfortable bathrobes, and having a record player in the room was a nice novelty. We also liked that we could walk to the beach, restaurants and a coffee shop nearby. The best part was the rooftop area. We enjoyed beautiful views of the ocean! Also, they delivered complimentary juice and muffins to our room in the morning. Check out our travel video on our YouTube channel: @SweetlifeofSisters or click the link: https://youtu.be/i_uvHU8RBHY?si=rEK0l5S6aM83_b5G We would definitely stay here again!
