This is a wonderful place to stay. The room was beautifully renovated, very clean, and with a comfy bed. We were warmly welcomed by Rishi. We loved the fact that they provided ceramic cups for the coffee and water glasses instead of plastic ones.

We had a wonderful stay at the Sunset Inn. The owner and staff are super friendly and made our stay a very nice experience. Location is great- very close to the ocean and I enjoyed seeing the local deer every morning right across the street from the Inn.

Convenient and clean!
Great place to stay. We were just there for 1 night as we traveled up the coast. Everything was so clean and the host made sure to tell us that "this is your home" to make sure we had anything we might need. It was a short walk away from the ocean front which made for a great evening stroll. Loved it!

Our stay was great. Location is easy to access. Quick drive into town but is highly walkable. Service was outstanding and would return just for the friendly staff.

The place is walking distance to the ocean, Lighthouse and Monarch Sanctuary. Our room was very clean and bed was very comfortable. The hosts are very kind and accommodating. I Would definitely stay here again.

I love the area and it makes for a beautiful walk to the lighthouse. The room was clean and updated. The inn keeper is the sweetest!
