My husband and I stayed here for a romantic get-away in May 2013. This little place did not disappoint! The room was so adorable and had all the right touches. The welcome basket with fresh baked bread was above and beyond. We had the best nights sleep, the beds and pillow were so comfortable. We only stayed 3 nights, so... More

We reserved a room for my birthday and were upgraded to the King Suite. It was amazing! The suite was spacious with a very comfortable bed and a huge bathroom which featured a large jetted tub surrounded by tile. The suite had a comfortable sitting area and a dining table with four chairs and was decorated beautifully. The suite featured... More

We stayed here for 5 nights in May 2013. We were upgraded to a deluxe room and I have to say it is one of the nicest places I have ever stayed. The apartment is beautifully decorated in perfect condition and cleaned every day. The location is fantastic and the staff extremely helpful and to top it off its great... More

I suppose ladies of a certain age will love the personal care that the owner put in to decorate the place in an antiquey, cutesy manner. The place does have a sweet vibe and nice staff. However, for your $250 for an average-size, queen-bed room, you don't get much. The worst is parking--ridiculously obstructed spaces that are truly unnerving if... More

Thank you for taking the time to write a review of the Harbor House Inn. I am sad to hear that your stay was less than enjoyable and did not meet all of your expectations.

This was a great place to stay at the end of our trip to California. We walked into a lovely spacious bedroom with a large comfortable bed and then the surprise came when we walked to the bathroom to discover a good size well equipped kitchen. There was a lovely welcome hamper of fresh fruit and homemade banana bread, juices... More

I loved my stay here. The staff made me feel very at home and I stayed in a lovely one bedroom mini-aparment. In the corner, maybe no 7, with a little kitchen-ette and a separate lounge. none of the rooms were huge, but the bed was one of the most comfortable I've ever slept on. Having the bikes available is... More

Great place to stay if you want to be close to the beach and restaurants. You feel like home here. Homemade sweet bread, fruits and juice in the welcoming basket. Very friendly staff. You get beach chairs, DVD:s and bikes (all included). It's a bit pricy place to stay but worth of every penny!

The location is wonderful-one block from the beach. The welcome basket for breakfast was very abundant and lovely choices. We were amazed at how well appointed the room was--someone has excellent taste. Had a bit of noise from the room next door so not completely soundproof, but wasn't a big issue. The grounds are also well done.

We stayed in room #6. That room has no kitchenette which makes it spacier. You are in walking distance to the city center, the wharf and the beach. Everything clean and nice. We would definitely come back. Only drawback: the walls are quite thin but this seems to be kind of common in California.
