What a great location!
The staff was very friendly, the location was beautiful. The room well kept, bathrooms were super large, the view was awesome and the best part was being able to wake up to the ocean waves crashing!
I would highly recommend this place to anyone staying in Cambria! We had the lower ocean view room. I'd definitely recommend getting the balcony to anyone that books there.
Nice place for a getaway, very relaxing and quiet!

Loved the room and the night front desk guy. We got in after dark, so we missed the sunset from our balcony :( We got this awesome room with a great jetted tub.( FYI: don't put the whole bottle of bath soap in) The bed was so comfy. Everything was great until we went down for breakfast.
While having our breakfast in the lobby. I innocently asked the front desk (woman) if we could request a late check out. She smiles and says sure, what would you like 5:00. I say, really? how about 3:00. Then she informs me it's a weekend and that's not possible. So I ask her what the latest is for checking out. She tells me she can give us an additional 30 minutes. Unless we want to book another night, for a different room. All she had to say in the beginning was they were booked and that a late check out was not possible. No need to be a smart arse!
There are alot of nice looking hotels on this strip, and I don't fore see staying here again.
Convenient, Clean, and Cheap.
The room itself was very large that had a very nice fireplace which you have to use as your heating source. The room comes equipped with coffee maker, fridge, and microwave.
Afternoon refreshments are served between 3 and 6, I believe, with a Continental Breakfast served from 8-10.
There is a DVD library available to all guests.
You are literally steps away from the boardwalk.
We will stay again next time, but will probably upgrade to a balcony room with a full, unobstructed ocean view!

I was pretty bummed after the B&B we were originally booked had to cancel our reservation. I went searching for a new place to stay and ended up booking Moonstone Landing based on reviews from various sites, including Yelp :)
We received great service from Barbara when we arrived. She was happy to answer any questions we had about the area, offered places to eat, things to do, etc. We got in right when the afternoon snacks were set up (yay!). They also had trays available in case you wanted to take food back. So, we hopped on that and grabbed a couple DVDs to watch that night at no cost. The rooms were larger than I expected. Highlights were the modern bathroom, in room fireplace and decent sized table to eat the complimentary snacks and breakfast. Other than the friendly staff the location was great! It is literally steps from the coast. We took a stroll the next morning and ended up seeing dolphins pretty close to the shore!
All in all, it's a really cute place to stay. Large room, friendly service, complimentary breakfast & afternoon snack, awesome location and the sounds of the ocean to put you to sleep.

Just got home from a long weekend getaway at Moonstone Landing. I found Moonstone on yelp and from reading the reviews I trusted it would be a good place to stay. I also liked the $150 /night winter rate-so affordable!
Moonstone is one of the newer and nicer looking hotels on this street. Just across the road from the beach, it is a beautiful location for some R&R. Our room was upstairs with an ocean view. [Not directly facing the ocean, those rooms cost more, but we could see the ocean.]
A fireplace was a nice addition to the room and the mini fridge, microwave and coffee maker were also great to have included.
An extensive breakfast spread is offered each morning with oatmeal, pastries, fruit, OJ, coffee, tea, hot cocoa etc. Every evening they put out a cheese plate assortment which was fun and a great little snack before venturing out to one of Cambria's cute restaurants.
Also included in your stay - DVDs! They have a large library of movies you can rent for free.
The staff was friendly and helpful. They suggested great restaurants for dining and had coupons and maps available for us. The hotel was clean and had a lot of extras for a great price. I was really stoked about this place!

I stayed at this property last weekend when attending my son's Cal Poly graduation ( everything closer was sold out three months in advance ). In a way, I'm glad I was forced to seek lodging in this area, a beautiful spot on the central CA coast. Moonstone Landing is a lovely place, with 29 units, on Moonstone Beach. My room, which had two queen beds, had a partial ocean view and was furnished in CA Mission style. It had a refrigerator and microwave and a dining table that looked out onto the ocean. I enjoyed my morning coffee( provided in the room - nice French dark roast ) there, looking at the Pacific. The fireplace adds a nice touch, especially after sunset when temperatures drop considerably.
There was a very nice breakfast buffet of freshly baked pastries, juice, coffee, assorted fruit, yogurt, cereals, definitely enough to get you started. I understand afternoon refreshments are also provided although I missed those.
The bathroom was lovely - nice marble, spacious.
This is a perfect spot to stay for a Heart Castle tour - several nice places to eat nearby and an interesting winery down the road in Harmony ( population 18 ).

Affordable place to stay in Cambria. Comes with some nice amenities. A fireplace, free movies, afternoon snacks, the cutest little microwave, a fridge with bottled water, yummy smelling body wash and soap, across from the beach and its new. No old yucky feeling. I loved hearing the ocean at night.

Other than winning a huge lottery so that I can buy my own ocean front property in Cambria, this is the only place I ever want to stay on Moonstone Beach. It's one of the newer hotels if not the newest on the strip. I accidentally discovered it a few years ago when I was on my way home to Burbank from Big Sur and I needed to stretch my legs on the beach before a long drive. On a whim, I checked out the then new hotel, and Dan--the extra super cool manager-- graciously showed me a second floor ocean front room; since it was already late in the day, he offered it to me for a reduced price, yay. I promptly called home to L.A. and told 'em I'd be home later. MUCH later!
And now I never want to leave this gem of a hotel whenever I go up to Cambria. From the minute I walk in my room until the second I check out, I open the sliding door to let the sound of waves take all my cares away. The rooms have everything I need to feel at home: gas fireplace, microwave, fridge, coffee pot, cable TV, deep soaking tub, and simple, tasteful decor when so many of the Cambria hotels are filled w/fake flowers and fru fru. I like that I can bring a lot of my own food so that I can spend more time hiking and beach combing, rather than spend all that coin and time taking all my meals at restaurants.
The front desk staff is so helpful and friendly. It's a family owned and operated hotel, and they always make me feel like I'm home there.
I can't wait to go back!

Beautiful rooms with great fireplaces. They offer free breakfast in the morning and free snacks in the afternoon, as well as free DVD's and WiFi. The hotel is relatively new and very nice. Absolutely no complaints.

I can't think of anything negative. It was nice to have large round table w/ chairs instead of useless desk. We had takeout in front of the fire one night. Staff was very nice, place was very quiet. Already thinking about when we can return.
