Lucia Lodge

To everyone thinking of booking this property: Highway 1 has been blocked for about two years a few miles north of this property and the only way to reach the place is driving from the south. The property is in a very isolated cliff with no internet access in the area, and the nearest place to get food is a convenience store in a gas station about 10 miles away. The road conditions get worse the closer you get to the lodge. As we did not have all this information before we booked, we were extremely disappointed when we got there and noticed we were probably the only guests and there were no cars anywhere around, we did not see any staff either, so we didn’t feel safe staying alone in such a remote, isolated place. We turned back and drove back south for about 40 miles to book another place in the nearest town. We could not get a refund because they have a policy that in order to get a refund you have to cancel at least 72 hours in advance. I don’t post bad reviews, this is my first, but we want to warn others about these facts so they can make an informed decision prior to booking.

Beautiful landscape and very clean. The internet is very spotty and there are no tvs. Atleast not in our room. However, we were not there to be online. We truly enjoyed the amazing view and quaint atmosphere. We will definitely return.

It’s really difficult to get to from the north. Google maps is inaccurate and we had to drive over a very winding road to get there. I did appreciate them keeping me updated though. There is no cell service, no tv. Not enough blankets and it was so cold. No onsite staff do if you don’t catch them when they are there, it’s a long night. My reservation was supposed to be for 3 adults and two beds, but was messed up and thankfully I was able up reach them by email. Because you can’t call them. I will say the views are fantastic and the sunset was gorgeous but there is no hiking from the lodge. You have to drive miles to gain access to the beaches. If I had to go it over I would have chosen to stay further south.
