I had a mixed experience at the resort. The location was fantastic, nestled in a beautiful area with great views. However, the management's approach, particularly around the hot tub area, left much to be desired. The rooms could use an upgrade, and cleanliness was an issue in some areas. Overall, while the surroundings were lovely and the pricing felt fair, the service and conditions need improvement.

Rooms

5.0

The room we stayed in had a spectacular view, but it was quite dated and could really use an upgrade. There was black mould on the siding, and the decor felt like it was stuck in the 80s. Despite these issues, it was clean.

Service was hit or miss. While the check-in staff were quite good, I found that the daytime staff lacked proper training and weren't very helpful when I had questions.

Pacific Shores Resort is a lovely place with clean and bright rooms that offer a beautiful ocean view. It’s a tranquil getaway with great outdoor trails, but I did find some shortcomings regarding the dining options and noise levels from construction during my stay. The value for the room could be better, especially given the extra charges for amenities that I didn't use.

My experience at the resort was quite frustrating.
