We like the Sandcastle Hotel because its unobstructed ocean front views. It is close to the Pier but far enough to not be impacted by large gatherings around the Pier.

This is probably the nicest hotel we’ve had the pleasure to stay at in Pismo. The rooms were clean, the sound of the ocean all night, and the terraces on each floor with the fire pits make this location the most relaxing but close to the pier. It’s just far enough away from the pier that you avoid the sound of traffic or people. The Starbucks in the lobby was nice and the staff were very kind and helpful. This is our place to stay from now on for sure.
