Wow so glad we happened upon this place when our regular spot as Pismo was full. Avila is a hidden hen that we and most people seem to miss, and the Avila La Fonda is a charming boutique hotel that made the stay here magical. A lovely and unique atmosphere, spa tub rooms, complimentary snack baskets, free wine hour, and pie and icecream hours in the lobby. They really work hard to make you feel comfortable and special. We expect to be returning guests for a long time. Love this place

Front Desk Staff was excellent, informing us of the taco bar til 2:00, happy hour and dessert pie at 8:00. We were able to park underground before our room was ready and received a call when we could check in. Housekeeping had to show us where to turn off the fan that was going when we entered the room. We received a beautiful tile upon checking out... an unusual and welcomed parting gift. All and all, it was a great experience.
