The Inn at Moonlight Beach is a peaceful little paradise just a few blocks from the beach. Our stay was the most relaxing we had in a very long time! The Inn is a wellness center running on 90% solar energy, harvesting their own fruits and erbs, and serving a delicious, farm to table healthy breakfast to your door every morning. We'll definitely go back!

We had such a wonderful and peaceful stay here. The rooms are serene, the grounds are beautifully kept, and the staff was sweet and accommodating. When we arrived, there was a pot of tea waiting for us, as well as a vase of flowers and little tea lights flickering all over our room. Yes, it's near the train crossing, but with the white noise machine blowing ocean sounds and the triple pane windows shut, you really don't hear any of that. Would 100% return!

My partner and I had an incredible 3 night stay. We booked the Sage room-that included its own balcony with a dinette and lounge sofa. A comfy king size bed, and an epic bathroom including a shower with impressive water pressure and a huge tub. The room was so inviting and smelled so fresh. We both agreed we haven’t felt more relaxed in a hotel room before. We loved the breakfast basket that was delivered to the room-we both chose chefs choice. The basket had quality healthy, feel good foods and fresh juices to get us ready for our day. I highly recommend adding the Well Delighted Full Moon Package-we chose the meat and cheese charcuterie board and everything on it was great quality, plus it was special to start our trip popping a bottle of champagne and a charcuterie board on the balcony seating. I highly recommend staying here. It was such a unique experience. We will absolutely stay here again.

My Girlfriend and I stayed two nights and were completely relaxed when we checked out. The soap making class was fun and educational, and we enjoyed a massage as well. The snacks and teas are all delicious. The bed was a bit low for older folks, but very comfortable. I don’t usually carry cash, and have trouble with Venmo, so tipping has been complicated, but that’s just a “me” thing ( don’t worry guys, I haven’t forgotten you)
