THE
PERFECT WEEKEND GETAWAY FOR SAN DIEGO, ORANGE COUNTY, INLAND EMPIRE, CENTRAL
COAST RESIDENTS AND WORLD GUESTS...lies along the Central California Coast in
Ventura. We drove by the hotel well over 100 times
on our trips along Highway 101 and were always interested in this place.
It is right on the ocean, overlooking Ventura pier and the Channel Islands.
Downtown Ventura shops, theatres and the mission are only two blocks away
and an easy walk, there's an Amtrak train stop across the street from the
hotel, the fairgrounds down the road a short distance and outlet shopping
not far from here in Oxnard and Camarillo.
We hesitated to tell people about
this because we like the rates and realize that they go up when a hotel
fills its rooms. We can't help but share this gem, however. It has
restaurants on premise and overlooks a seafood restaurant at the pier,
as well. There are surrey rentals and a beautiful paved path that runs
along the hotel to the pier and past some condominiums nearby. The
swimming pool overlooks the ocean and pier where you can watch surfers
who prefer the wave breaks along this section of coast. In fact,
we noticed several hotel guests had surf board racks on their automobiles.
It is a gorgeous spot, right off the freeway and rated with a AAA three
star.
