So many little touches not found in other hotels - complimentary snacks and water in the room, heated towel warmer, ceiling fan… not to mention all the extra little receptions - wine and cheese at 6pm, pie at 8pm, and to do for croissants for breakfast. Didn’t even need to leave the hotel to find food! Will definitely go back.

Book the stay immediately, stop looking around, this is the place. If you want relaxation, romantic and chill, this is the place. The staff is friendly, the room stole the show though. Fireplace, jacuzzi tub, Egyptian sheets, complimentary wine/snacks, the DVD/24-hour snack pantry, the daily complimentary snacks/beverages in the hotel kitchen - you name it, we were pampered. Can't wait to come back!

This hotel is a gem if you are looking for a botique style stay. The design is colorful with a lot of attention to details. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. Everything is clean. The service is extremely friendly and welcoming. There are a number of complimentary food servings during the day in the common area (morning croissants, afternoon wine tasting, etc.).

Phenomenal location, room, and staff. I cant wait to return over the summer. The location is perfect, near many wine tasting options, great food options, and literal minutes walking distance from the beach. The staff went above and beyond and they offer multiple socials throughout the day from hors d'oeurves and wine to salsa and mexican beer and dessert at 8pm. Our place was spotless and everyone was so warm. I eagerly look forward to coming here again

A great place to stay for adults! Our room was clean and snacks are provided for free. There was a room to either exchange the snacks for different ones or buy extra snacks. That same room also provides movies to borrow and chairs to take to the beach. There are several times to get food for free. It was so much fun.

What a wonderful surprise was the La Fonda Hotel from the delightful check in staff to the “goodie” basket and all the receptions. The room was immaculate and the bed most comfortable. The hotel was just decorating for Christmas which gave it a magical atmosphere. The staff was to helpful and so eager to please. The location of the hotel is excellent to restaurants, wine tasting and walks on the beach. We highly recommend a stay at this lovely, cozy beach town hotel.
