"Great location, right opposite the beach. A nice pool and fun family games throughout the grounds. Our room was very comfortable, asked for quiet room and it was!
The reasons I haven't given this 5 stars is because our room wasn’t ready for check in at 4.20pm. The restaurant menu was limited… so easy to walk in to downtown though. We wanted to play pickleball, the courts were empty but were told we couldn’t use them as booking was not available. Minor points really, I would recommend this hotel to friends! "
"Chumash exceeded my expectations. I was a little hesitant with reading other reviews but we were pleasantly surprised. Everything was exceptionally clean and lovely. The room was spacious, comfortable and beautiful. The casino was large and had a lot of options. Although there is smoking permitted, the smoke wasn’t excessive. Dee spent Saturday by the pool and it was great, too.
We ate at the sports bar the first night and the staff were a little lackluster as far as interactions. Just not personable or engaging or even a smile, but the food was great. We ate at Willows the second night and although I had put in my reservation that it was my boyfriend’s birthday, outside of checking in, his birthday was never mentioned. We each had a soup and split a steak and the steak was very tough and flavorless. It was cooked perfectly, but it just wasn’t great. I asked for an N.A. margarita and it was basically a glass of ice and lime juice. I asked if they could add some simple syrup and soda water and it was brought back the same. Our server was great and attentive and was definitely the most exceptional staff we experienced.
The casino was fun. We were playing video blackjack and with the exception of the music being ridiculously loud, we had a great time. We spent a couple hours each evening playing blackjack and came out even. I found a slot I wanted to play and ended up further ahead than I anticipated; I was pleasantly surprised.
Would absolutely stay there again"
"Nice friendly staff. Rooms nice and clean. Breakfast is included although it should be described as CONTINENTAL breakfast. They serve different breads, yogurt, cereals, and fruit. The parking is free, but very tight spaces. Otherwise its a nice economic motel for a few nights. I would return."
