On Miramar Beach in Half Moon Bay, sights and sounds of the Pacific are just outside your door at the Cypress Inn. Eighteen rooms and suites offer dramatic ocean views, and each features luxurious feather beds, fireplaces and private baths. Guests are treated to a full breakfast each morning and a selection of wine and hors d’oeuvres are freshly prepared each afternoon.
Great place, but we did not receive the room booked and then tried to call it an upgrade. It was important to us to have a 2nd floor room for the view. Since we were staying Thurs and Friday, I think they gave our room to someone staying Friday and Saturday, so they could book more rooms. The room we ended up with was available Thurs and Friday, so they moved us. They tried to call it an upgrade, on the ground floor, but I turned that down when I booked it. What were we supposed to do when they don't tell you until you arrive. Get everything in writing. They did not put the room name or floor level on the confirmation. This gives them flexibility to move you.

We did spend more per night due to the holiday weekend but enjoyed our trip. My daughters were able to scooter behind the hotel. Their was a managers reception both nights.

My husband and I stayed here for the happiness festival put on by the Atlantic. Chloe at check-in was so lovely, and we truly enjoyed our stay here. The most fun was when everyone checked out and we spent the day golfing and cocktailing to our hearts content!

Boasting 80 spacious guest rooms and suites, our scenic hotel in Half Moon Bay offers complimentary Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, plush bathrobes, and wood-burning fireplaces to keep you cozy at night.
We hosted a wedding in the area and many guests stayed at the hotel. Hotel management wanted to charge us $5/pp to distribute COVID tests to guests at check in! Totally felt nicked and dimed. A guest also told us that the room was cold and maintenance took forever to bring her a heater and extra blankets.
